WASHINGTON -- National Action Network president Rev. Al Sharpton promised a “season of civil disobedience” in reaction to the nomination of Sen. Jeff Sessions (R-Ala.) for attorney general in the Trump administration.

Sharpton, an MSNBC host, said activists have planned a march in Washington on Jan. 14 during the Martin Luther King Jr. holiday weekend to protest the Sessions nomination. Sharpton recalled spending 90 days in jail for protesting on U.S. Navy land against military exercises on the island of Vieques in 2001 when George W. Bush was president, adding that civil disobedience usually works because it changes policy.

The Vieques PR protest went very well for the protesters. The Navy ceased using the Island as a live fire training area and subsequently shut down the Roosevelt Roads Naval Station. This cost PR a large source of income for the island.

You got it wrong-—the Founders would have said, “It’s unamerican to PAY taxes.” Remember, every dollar you fork over to the government supports a criminal, constitutionally illegitimate enterprise. To drain the swamp you must starve the beast.

Civil Disobedience already reigns supreme in Chicago but that sort of thing is ok since Sharpton nor his fellow community organizers care.

I almost hope that he does it. It will just remind everyone why Trump won. The country is out of control and the Occupy Wall Street idiots and the BLM obnoxious behavior are only two signs of the corruption and deterioration of our country’s morals over the Obama years.

Tie them all to the DNC and Obama, and let the public ponder the improvement we will have with a Trump administration.

cool him off in Guantanamo.. lots of room there, but let the federal marshals ride him around the country before incarcerating him, plus water board him a little to loosen him up..
