Well, most of us know Al Sharpton is just a con artist, incites riots, makes money off of others sufferings and for the most part is a messenger of Satan

Sharpton backed off but called the family members “confused” & said that they “misunderstood”.

Revvy Al probably knew there would have been some real beatdown if he & his posse tried to crash the event.

“Al Sharpton and the False Prophets of Sin and Money” should be the label on the side of his bus

The blowhard opportunist muscled his way into the arrangements — and even put out press releases promising to deliver the eulogy — without ever consulting the family or offering to foot the bill.

There is another class of coloured people who make a business of keeping the troubles, the wrongs, and the hardships of the Negro race before the public. Having learned that they are able to make a living out of their troubles, they have grown into the settled habit of advertising their wrongs — partly because they want sympathy and partly because it pays. Some of these people do not want the Negro to lose his grievances, because they do not want to lose their jobs. - Booker T. Washington, 1911

n the press release sent around Friday, Sharpton said he would spend Saturday on Staten Island with the families of Eric Garner and Trayvon Martin and the lawyer for the family of Ferguson police-shooting victim Michael Brown.

“I altered my schedule based on Kimberly Ballinger’s request, the domestic partner of Akai Gurley,” Sharpton claimed”.

sharpton really does see everything as a stage for his performances!!
