Sharpton is a racist punk.
Are you telling me that Limbaugh has never race-baited on his show?

Umm, no man. Its called I have things to do and denouncing Al isn't quite a high priority of mine. Its sad you think thats tacit approval. I thought scientists were supposed to be able to think a little more critically?

Sad to say for an old Yankee fan, Sharpton was on the field with D.Jeter & family at one of his goodbye ceremonies.

Barkley would be outstanding and it wouldn't shock me if he hasn't done it already.
But if Obama came out and condemned the actions of those who fan the flames in these situations for their own benefit, then people would listen.
IMO, Obama could do wonders for this country and his legacy if he decided to devote his post-Presidency years to becoming a bridge between the two races in situations like this. Be a true leader of the black community that doesn't seek to divide people when a racial situation occurs. He won't do it, but that opportunity is there.

Obama may as well do it.

But i thought the Community dont take Al Serious? But everytime you look up, he has the Mic for them. So go blow that crap up somewhere else from now on. He gives them their marching orders just as much as Obama.

And for someone who claims to have amazing test scores, I have to say that your inability to understand what an outlier is in a trend is sad

To be fair, I don't "the community" is giving him the mic.

he was there on behalf of and with the Brown family.
so yes, they are.

Obama uses this stuff for political purposes.

Yes, among my friends IRL. But of course those who get all of their "black news" from TV/media don't hear these types of things.

You mentioned church attendance and financial donations as evidence for Al being viewed very highly by blacks. All I did was ask for a link re: attendance numbers and amount of blacks donating to confirm your theory and instead you malinger.

Ok, so all we know is the Brown family gave him the mic. So I guess now the Brown family = the "black community?"

I believe in their minds the answer is yes, IMO

Yep, as I said before, it was MSNBC's decision to give him a one-million-kilowatt megaphone.

Care to explain the connection between the Rev. Al and Michael Brown? Are there not any local pastors in Michael Brown's community?

Well, I mean, you'd think SOMEBODY in the "black community" would advise them against letting this assclown speak for them, wouldn't you?

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.
and people still tune in white and black
seeing him and bill having their weekly talks on fox was epic. I bet they are drinking buddies.

And why do you suppose they did that?

Again I ask, why is it that nobody trusts the media.....except with their portrayal of "the black community?" Has it ever crossed any of y'alls minds that maybe those black people who want to speak out against the Als and Jesses of the world get no airtime or get ignored?
Really agree with this. The media has an interest in playing up racial conflict (really any conflict). Moderate voices of reason don't get as much play because, well, they are less interesting than media whores like Al Sharpton or Ann Coulter.
