Better let All-Star Al in the game!

It wasn’t enough for the NBA to reach out to the NYPD to prepare for the four-day All-Star festivities in February — the league also had a “straight line of communication” with the Rev. Al Sharpton, a source told The Post.

The league is still hammering out the final details for the Feb. 15 All-Star Game at the Garden, but is planning the “biggest security operation” to date, the source said.

No plans for protests are in the works by Sharpton or his National Action Network.

Sharpton did not immediately respond to requests for comment.

It looks like the NBA is paying Al Crypt Keeper Sharpton not to bring his rent a mob to protest the game. Shakedown 101 from the race hustlers book of extorting whitey.

This is actually a very good thing. It will keep reminding the rest of the country why they threw the Democrats out. There is nothing we in New York can do about it, but seeing him in the paper each day will serve a great purpose.

Two peas in a pod - the NBA and Sharpton. Couldn’t be a better fit.

This moron is only 60 years old.......he is very young compared to people like Monica Lewinsky and Paula Jones and Kathleen Willey's former boyfriend's wife who will likely run for president.

This picture of Al in his blue polyester protestor suit is telling a story as you see him ready to parade about town.

It’s large and you have to scroll down to see his group.

Fear not, history tells us that leftys with gold plated healthcare seem to go on forever (Soros, J. Carter, Castro, etc).

Al is like that guy in the cigarette commercial, where the cigarette addiction pulls him out the door...and is in control. That’s ZERO pulling Sharpton out into the street...”I said rally the troops and March moron, or pay the IRS 4 Million dollars” Sharpton marches.
