Sharpton: 'Slap in the Face to Those Who Believe in Justice in This Country'
Weekly Standard ^ | 7/13/2013 | Daniel Halper

Posted on 07/13/2013 7:42:10 PM PDT by mykroar

"Well, I think that this is an atrocity," said Sharpton. "I think that it is probably one of the worst situations that I've seen. What this jury has done is establish a precedent that when you are young and fit a certain profile, you can be committing no crime, just bringing some Skittles and iced tea home to your brother, and be killed and someone can claim self-defense having been exposed with all kinds of lies, all kinds of inconsistencies. ... Even at trial when he is exposed over and over again as a liar, he is acquitted. This is a sad day in the country. I think that we clearly must move on to the next step in terms of the federal government and in terms of the civil courts. Clearly, we want people to be disciplined, strategic. But this is a slap in the face to those that believe in justice in this country."

He was watching videos of his own trials, and got confused.

Shut up Al. We “believed in justice in this country” when your boy, O.J. got off. Lighten up Al and go get yourself a bag of “Skillets”. It will make you feel better.

I was going to say “fu## Al Sharpton” but I guess I don’t really have that need anymore.

SHARPTON:

You are a shameless joke...
...that is no longer funny any more.

The trial was conducted as prescribed by the law of the land,
...and George Zimmerman was tried and acquitted by a jury of his peers.

If you can't accept that verdict...
...and you prefer some corrupt 3rd world dictatorship meting out "just-us"...
..instead of a jury system..

...just pack up your race-pimp bad attitude and get OUT!

--AND--
You are a grievous shame to every legitimate pastor and faith leader in the USA.

Cry me a river Al (but only if you also felt a grave injustice was done when OJ got off with slashing 2 people to death in cold blood.
If I recall correctly, the black community rose in unison to cheer that verdict.

"I think that it is probably one of the worst situations that I've seen.

. Seriously Al, you racist cock-a-roach. A worse situation than what you did to Pagona? Really? Al if you really are a reverend you should get on your knees and beg God for forgiveness, you wretched piece of human debris.

Al Sharpton is the Joseph Goebbels to the Obama administration whipping racial hatred up to get out the vote this fall. How many will die for their political ploy?

I’m sure lots of people would like to give Sharpton a slap in the face.

This pathetic putz has more baggage than a 747. He is a disgrace to the human race.

Wow, just wow...I actually watched him say that live, and not for the respect I have for the new flat screen we put into my wife’s home office, I just changed the channel rather than throw the nearest heavy object into the TV...

In a just world, the dictionary would simply exhibit a picture of Al Sharpton under the the topic of ‘hypocrisy’...

Tawana Brawley......OJ Simpson . . Duke lacrosse

Let's not forget Al's key role in the Crown Heights riots and the subsequent murder of Yankel Rosembaum who's only crime was walking home while being Jewish. I don't recall anyone even being questioned by David Dinkin's NYPD over that one.

Mugged: Racial Demagoguery from the Seventies to Obama.

This is a really excellent book.
