Al Sharpton is as much a racist as he is black. I don't know what rock you've been living under for the last 3 decades, but ever since he slandered an innocent white police officer who committed suicide as a result of Al accusing him of a rape he didn't commit in the headlines for weeks, he's been a race baiter and a bigot. Anyone whose entire life and fame has come from over-analyzing back and white and making everything a black and white issue..... is a fucking racist. He's also an extortionist (or are you the least bit curious how a preacher with no congregation or other means of support can afford $10,000 suits, limo's and multi-million dollar town houses and vacation homes) which he learned from the king racist himself... Jessie Jackson, who aside from calling NYC Hymie-Town in the 80's successfully extorted Anheuser-Busch in the 90's into giving his son a beer distributorship in Chicago. He did the same to Coca Cola 10 years earlier when his brother (or maybe it was another son?) got one from Coke or else Jessie would hold a boycott of Coke products. But that's Jessie... Al is a light weight compared to him... Sort of like comparring Donald Sterling to the Grand Dragon of the KKK. This is not going to be another case of Emily re-writing history we here have all lived thru. We've all heard Al spout shit about white people, Jews, Koreans and just about anyone who wasn't black like him. Guess you don't recall fat Al standing in front of a Korean deli about 20 years ago spouting anti-Asian shit as fast as the press could report it, or whipping a neighborhood into a racist antisemitic frenzy over a car accident that resulted in a gang of black youths killing a hassidic Jew. A couple of nice Korean American citizens who were stripped of their rights by Al and his pal in Gracie Mansion (David Dinkins who you've often praised) who ordered the NYPD to back off and NOT UPHOLD THE LAW and force an illegally gathered crowd to disperse from the premises, and pulling the police off the streets of Crown Hights while it became open season on Jews...... and you wonder how Rudy beat Dinkins in their rematch election.
Btw... Sterling went public today. He and his wife stated they have no intention of selling the team and that in this country you can't take someones business away or force them to sell their property because you don't like what they said. That means this is headed for court where he will win and drag some hypocrites thru the gutter if they choose to go that futile route.
