Some clowns make children laugh. Others scare them. And, occasionally, we come across a clown who generates both reactions simultaneously.
Which leads straight to al sharpton.
Excerpted from Rocco Parascandola and Joseph Stepansky\’s article for the New York Daily News:
TheRev. Al Sharpton will mark Martin Luther King Jr. Day by placing agarland on the Brooklyn street site where two NYPD officers wereexecuted – but the floral gesture drew fire from a police unionhead, who called the move an insincere “media grab.”
ButSharpton said he purposefully publicized the gesture to highlightKing\’s disdain for “senseless violence and killing,” such asthemurder of the two cops.
“It\’sabsolutely what we\’re trying to do, publicize the realm of Dr. King\’smessage,” said Sharpton, who will be making his first visit to thescene of the crime.
…Sharpton and the family of Eric Garner will lead a bus caravanto the site of the Dec. 20 cop killings, before going to StatenIsland to hold a vigil at the site where Garner was killed.
What a pathetic joke. Can this “man” possibly think he is fooling anyone?
Can sharpton possibly think that suddenly materializing on Martin Luther King Jr. day, a month after NYPD officers Liu and Ramos were executed, is going be seen as even 1% sincere?
Can he possibly think that showing up with Eric Garner\’s family would cause anyone to see a connection between Garner, a serial small-time criminal with 30 or more arrests on his record who died because he was resisting arrest, and Liu and Ramos – both officers in good standing – who were executed in cold blood while doing nothing other than sitting in their police car?
Evidently the answer to both questions is yes.
And, with great sadness, I have to, at least in part, agree. There are people who have been buying into one sick farce after another from this racist, Black supremacist, anti-Semitic serial deadbeat for decades. So why not now as well?
But for anyone in possession of a brain that is even moderately engaged, it is another episode of the sharpton clown college at work…and you don\’t know whether to laugh at the farce that he is, or be scared that some people take him seriously.
al sharpton has about as much to do with the ideals espoused by Martin Luther King Jr. as ISIS has with Gandhi.
