A defiant Rev. Al Sharpton today responded to media reports that he served as an FBI informant against mob bosses in the 1980s, confirming that he recorded conversations, but insisting the reports missed the mark.
Speaking at a hastily-called press conference at the National Action Network’s headquarters in Harlem, Mr. Sharpton took special issue with the “informant” characterization. The front pages of the New York Post and Daily News today labeled the reverend a “rat” and a “mob snitch.”

Sharpton, if you get this message, shut your lying crap. You are a racists and you favor communists behavior. You are garbage.
To: Biggirl
So Al Sharpton is Ratus Ratus Ratus, rather than Ratus Ratus.

Funny that it’ll be the Sicilians, not the “racist” Tea Party or Rethuglicans that will do the deed. Who’ll officiate? Mr. Obama?

Openly announcing that you informed on Mafia bosses, eh? Al, you are not long for this world. Never think that the wise guys cannot reach out and tap you.

Al could be swimming with the fishes or at least find a horse’s head in his bed.

That is if there are still any mafia left in this country to speak of. Did not the famous RICO laws take care of the mafia?

It is kind of fun to watch this race-bater on the defensive for a change. Usually he is bullying anyone and everyone where there is a buck to be made.
I guess telling the mob that Big Al was an informant on them is not the best career path for Al.
We NY taxpayers will probably have to pay for his 24/7 police protection.
Better yet, put him in witness protection somewhere in Iowa, never to be heard from again. I’d pay for that!
To: Biggirl
Maybe you're a fish, Al ?
'cause you're soon to be sleeping with 'em.
