What does the Rev. Al Sharpton have to do with this?
Why do some people dislike him? I have never heard him say anything inflammatory. If you have PROOF of him being inflammatory, I'd like see it but what I have seen from him is constant requests for peaceful protest as well as requests for proof and facts instead of anger.
We saw this from Trayvon Martin's family after his was gunned down and we saw it from Sharpton as well - Asking people to react peacefully, no rioting.
In contrast, it was the white police in St Louis who attacked peaceful protesters who were not breaking any law in their exercise of their constitutionally-guaranteed rights.
The reason some dislike Sharpton is that he is a fighter for civil rights.
You are kidding right ? Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson CREATED the Zimmerman issue and propelled it into a trial, when the Sanford Police had properly dismissed it as insufficient evidence. These race hustlers thrive on racial strife and animosity and increase it with their infammatory rhetoric. Now Sharpton is at it again in Ferguson, which is beginning to look more and more like another insufficient evidence non-case.
Sharpton and Jackson aren't fighters for civil rights, Not hardly. They're a couple of has beens trying to restart their past glories and stuff their pockets, as well.
