Sharpton spoke Sunday at a rally in Ferguson, where days of protest have ended with almost nightly confrontations between police and protesters.
Sharpton says he wants Congress to stop programs that provide military-style weaponry to police departments. He says he expects police to “smear” the slain teenager, his family and his attorneys.
He also condemned the recent spate of violence and looting in Ferguson.
You race baking piece of garnage! What about the shooting death of an unarmed law abiding Jewish man by 2 black men.
So sick of this irrelevant piece of garbage. Taiwana Brawley should have been his defining moment. And he knows it would have been if there really was equal justice.
The only defining moment here is how his constituents handle themselves. Looting and vandalizing is the true motivation.
How do you “smear” a thug when there is unchallenged video showing him robbing a convenience store and assaulting the shopkeeper on the way out the door. No, this is not a shooting offense, but don’t make this guy appear to be a pure neshmah either.
what a nice summerSHARPTON is having showing up in suits that cost thousands AND GETTING HIS FACE A;LL OVER THE MEDIA,
when will the reporters expose this piece of garbage for what he is . It is a disgrace for the truth to be hidden .Why is he still given a place in the newspapers?. He caused the death of several people in the harlem fire He was in crown heights to fan the flames of jew hatred in that pogrom.
He is 100% corect, I don’t disagree with any of his points
Why do we allow police bums to go around with m16 machine guns,m1 tanks, and other military equipment, its time to stop them
The fact that the black community has no better leader than lowlife sharpton says a lot.
