91. I'm glad he's standing up for a miscarriage of justice. I don't care if the cops where red, white or blue there is no excuse for shooting an unarmed man 50 times. If they are that afraid that they would just start shootin recklessly, the cowards shouldn't be cops anyway.

93. When I saw the headline, I said to myself "THANK GOD A POLICE OFFICER SHOT AL SHARPTON!" Then I re-read the article; sadly, it was not to be. I'm typically not one to wish bad things on someone, but Al sharpton needs a serious ass whooping. He's more of a racist media whore than Gloria Allred, if that's even possible...

94. Sharpton only had a group of "hundreds", his incendairy comments only provoke civil unrest. I live on the west coast and I am a MEXICAN, I was born in the US .......God help the NEXT civil war...................

95. Here is a speck of crap. He ruins people,s lives and gets away with it. If a white person says one word that offends Al take cover because he for his hateful motivations is coming after you. I cant handle all he does to people. Imus big deal what he says they say worse and it is just fine. I was channel surfing one night and i came across the old tv show The Jeffersons and i was amazed at whet the blacks on that show were saying. The character that played George Jefferson called another black man the n word because the guy made a move on Georges wife and that n word now is big trouble if a white person says it. This was a show from the sevnties. Sharpton sickens me and i try i really try to understand the the black folks and i come up with this most are very very confused about why they hate the whites. I feel it is just in them to hate us because most dont like thierselves. Al Dumbass is the worse one. I hope to God if Obama gets in he wont hang out with trash like Al Sharpton is and Jesse Jackson also. I just dont trust it anymore at all. I cant and its the folks like Al S who have made my mind up. He stands for death and destuction. He plainly hates white people. I hope Obama isnt like this when it is all said and done. Look out America.

96. I to am afraid to see wht Obama may do to stay within the limits of pleasing his race. Al Sharpton is a nut who needs to be put out. Why in the world would you trust Obama. I dont get this at all. One thing I will say for this race is they stick together. Al Sharpton wants to make the whites suffer for what? You know he keeps trouble stirred up and it is so rotten he gets away with it all. I hope someone knocks his teeth down his throat. He needs to be put in jail. He is a criminal and he breaks laws and steps on the innocent. LEAVE NOW. GO. You make America a bad place with all your trouble. Just go!

They are protesting that the NYC POLICE force is being abusive to minority its not about BLACK OR WHITE ITS ABOUT BLUE NYPD BLUE

Any one that does not see this being a problem you must live in Surbubia where every one know each other

101. This guy is only out for publicity. Why protest the cops? Didn't a judge and jury make the final decision??? It seems to be that black people are much more racist than whites now-a-days.

102. What is wrong with not wanting to be Shot 50 times. The Secret Racism that is Underlying in Society is Here Now, the Words coming out of Your HEART/MOUTH.
This is why America is Reviled now by other Countries. From a country that is always Bringing "Democracy" (sic ) forced to Other Countries "Hypocrisy"

103. This racist moron needs to be locked up or shut up....Dr Martin Luther King had beautiful dreams of equality and peace...idots and racist pigsl like Sharpton took a wonderful message and twisted it and used it to promote hate, laziness, and misdirected arrogance........He and other racist balcks (not all balcks are like this, mind you.....many are not) are tearing this country down ....it saddens me to see it

104. Is it just me or has anyone notice how the rev Al has seemed to age so fast, and get thin and gray...hmmm could it be another reverend is on the "stuff"???

105. This guy is pathetic, will do anything for the limelight. He is the epitome of the word " Victimization". He uses any "black" oriented situation to turn it around and make it seem like he (who drives a jaguar) is a victim because of his color. Again, pathetic.
