70% of Arizona voters agree with new immigration legislation signed into law on Friday. But, not Al Franken or Barack Obama. And, New York Citys Al Franken says hes ready to organize protests and commit civil disobedience over the new Arizona immigration law. The New York Post reported, via Free Republic:
The Rev. Al Sharpton says he will challenge Arizonas new immigration bill in court and on the streets.
Sharpton is joining Lillian Rodriguez Lopez from the Hispanic Federation to announce a legal challenge to the bill. They say activists are also prepared to commit civil disobedience to fight the Arizona immigration bill.

Yes, wow, imagine that: a law that says you have to obey the law or don’t come here.
Isn’t AZ’s law just saying the completely unremarkable conclusion that if you’re here illegally, you’re here illegally, and you won’t be staying if we find you here illegally?
Doesn’t U.S. law itself make it illegal for illegals to be here, or is there something about “illegal” that I am not getting? Is Al Sharpton saying that under federal law people who are here illegally are not here illegally, and therefore cannot ever be treated as if they are here illegally?
We can only wish. the left is fomenting trouble and is looking for any reason to so do.
That will not be the case in AZ, especially Maricopa County.
He and the illegals are filling in time.
Lots of opportunity to be checking for legal residence status ...
Let’s rap with Oinky the Pig, aka Sharpton:
“A Molotov cocktail, the flash of a match/
and your white-owned Jew store is a pile of ash!”
Google on “Freddy’s Fashion Mart” if you don’t know what I mean.
Bigger story:
According to the first paragraph Al Sharpton and Al Franken are one and the same.
Is Al Sharpton saying that under federal law people who are here illegally are not here illegally, and therefore cannot ever be treated as if they are here illegally?

Well, of course, because the law only applies to those who do NOT empower liberals at the voting booth or with union dues...what the author misses is that Al and Al (idiot Franken too) are truly guilty of sedition already — I wonder what else THEY are going to end up being guilty of ?? Conspiracy to break the law???
Defeatism and negativity are not available options.
"Tyranny, like hell, is not easily conquered; yet we have this consolation with us, that the harder the conflict, the more glorious the triumph." - Thomas Paine
“Recommend civil disobedience somewhere besides Arizona, Rev”
Pssst—only liberals are allowed the right to civil disobedience. The right is not allowed to even have the freedom of speech without being charged with sedition.
Jan Brewer’s chief aide already had a molitov cocktail thrown at his house a couple weeks back.
You’re a little LATE, Uncle AL. Your thug buddies have been throwing bottles at cops all day!!!
It can only HURT his cause for him to get TV face time!
I hope Sheriff Joe has a pair of pink undies in his jail big enough to fit Sharpton’s fat, race-baiting black ass.
Ping!
Aaaah,shut up,Al.
Really not a big surprise. Sharpton is considered to be obama’s connection to the street. Both are just race thugs.
...and we’re ready to beat your b.... a..
In Phoenix, Sharpton will be a black “interloper,” to use his own word against him.
tat would be greasy headed b....a....
Does that mean the Arizona State Police will be requird to question Obama the next time he comes in-state?
Bring it on, Al. I’m ready to defend myself - tenfold.
Al Sharpie is picking a fight he will regret picking
As normal dem-o-rat are overstepping
Okay, I am having a hard time keeping up.
Protest and dissent are noble again?
Al Sharpton is ready to commit civil disobedience if his pizza is five minutes late. His protests are meaningless.
“Al Franken says hes ready to organize protests and commit civil disobedience”
Throw Franken’s diapered ass in jail.
I live for the day!
Go for it Al.
It’s getting very close to the time where we taxpayers are going to commit some “civil disobedience” right back at you, you fat slime encrusted taker of other people’s money.
To someone with no belief in property rights I guess that makes sense...
I guess whiling their marching their car, their house, their money, all their stuff is all legal for anyone to take and use
Sharpton and his ilk could care less about the will of the people. They are demagogues drunk on power.
Not me...I wanna see the results:
How quaint.
Good, I’m ready for him to go to jail, not that he shouldn’t already be there.
Big Al:
He says he owns no suits, but has ‘’access’’ to a dozen or so. He says he owns no television set because the one he watches in his home was purchased by a company he runs. He says he has no checking accounts, no savings accounts, no credit cards, no debit cards, no mutual funds, no stocks, no bonds, no paintings, no antiques. The only thing he admits to owning is a $300 wristwatch and a 20-year-old wedding ring.
The finances of the Rev. Al Sharpton have a somewhat troubled history. He was indicted on charges of income tax fraud and stealing from charitable donors in 1989, but was eventually acquitted at a trial. In 1993, he pleaded guilty to a misdemeanor charge of failing to file a tax return for 1986. His eponymous promotional company has no official documents on record with the state. As recently as two years ago, he drew no salary, but he still manages to send his daughters to an expensive and respected private school.
Mr. Sharpton has always been studiously circumspect when talking about his pocketbook in public, yet this month he suddenly announced that he could not afford to pay a judgment entered against him in the Tawana Brawley defamation case. As a result, he gave a lengthy deposition to lawyers for the man that he was found to have defamed, Steven A. Pagones, a former prosecutor whom Mr. Sharpton claimed had raped Ms. Brawley 13 years ago.
The deposition was never made public, though excerpts from it were given to The New York Times by a supporter of Mr. Pagones. It offers a privileged peek into the byzantine world of Mr. Sharpton’s personal finances as he considers running for mayor. In its combative back-and-forth and unintended humor, it sketches a portrait of the fiscal Al Sharpton, a man who claims to own virtually nothing but has almost everything he needs.
BOR and Hannity give Al too much face time.
Why any black person would support this chaos is beyond me.
According to the first paragraph Al Sharpton and Al Franken are one and the same.
They are they are
Hell, they even look the same !!!!!!!!!!!!!
Does that mean the Arizona State Police will be requird to question Obama the next time he comes in-state?
Man, that’s hilarious.!!!
Thanks, FRiend.
You’re ready to commit civil disobedience? LOL
You have been beat to the punch as it were or don’t you watch the news?
Maybe they can or will deport the jerk also. Senior Sharpton, es time to go Mexico. Bye Bye
Ha!
Does he realize how tiresome he is?
I hope the cops and National Guard of Arizona are ready to round these crooks up at the next big riot.
Did someone mention Albaby?
I smell a trap. If I was going to set up the Tea Partiers with bait for violence, Al Sharton and friends would make the short list.
