This should go over real well. Heard this on tv news yesterday.

No way the flames of justice will be fanned by this.

frick this guy

All he does is pour gas on the fire

How do the black community not see through his schemes, he rakes in the dough on events like this

In a sane world the Brown family would tell him to go piss up a rope and GTFO but instead for some reason they see him as a figure that gives them credibility to their cause

They are being used and don't even know it

I discredit any group who allows Sharpton to speak to/for them. Same with Jessie Jackson (and Glenn Beck, for that matter)

His speech in the church last week was pretty brutal. He's going to make a lot of money off of this.

How is he the "Black communities" fault? The Black community didn't foolishly give him his own cable TV show.

He didn't just up and one day have a show. He had a long history of race baiting and tomfoolery completely supported by the black community.

I agree with you on Sharpton, Jackson and Beck, but I would also add Limbaugh, Coulter and Hannity to that list.

I disagree, this is actually pretty smart by them. They know their son wasn't a little beacon of sunshine, and as more facts come out he will be painted in a more negative light. Using these race baiters to back him and keep the focus on the racist white cops keeps their son in a positive light.

Completely supported by the Black community? You obviously have no clue about Black folks. And what does that have to do with MSNBC?

Until the black community actively stands up against people like Sharpton, we'll never see improvement in race relations. I have no respect or sympathy for people that run to him for help. He and his like are a cancer to our country because in the end, they promote division and inflame situations just so they line their pockets with more money.

My favorite part:

"This is the worst case I've ever seen".

No, Mr. Sharpton, the worst thing you've ever seen was what you and your ilk did for Tawana Bradley.

Sure. If not, he'd be another street preacher.

I guess not. Why don't you enlighten us with the wholesale rejection of Al Sharpton by black communities/leaders. Go ahead.....

You brought up his show. Not me

Al Sharpton never apologized for the Tawana Brawley hoax, even after she and her entire family admitted they had made the whole thing up.

Yet, the black community stood by Sharpton, or else he wouldn't even be on the scene today.

Once again, hackfan ignores the truth.

These things are almost scripted at this point. I mean, there may literally be a script with an assigned part for each key player.
