Activist blasts immigration policy in Danbury speech (CT)

Danbury (AP) -- Civil rights activist Rev. Al Sharpton told a Danbury church congregation that the immigration policy in the city is unfair.

Sharpton is criticizing the way Danbury officials have handled the illegal immigration issue. Nine men who were nabbed after an undercover officer offered laborers work are being deported. Sharpton says he doesn't lie to people and then deport them.

Sharpton was the guest speaker Sunday at New Hope Baptist Church and told the group that he plans to get arrested in New York on Wednesday.

He says the action is part of a civil disobedience demonstration to protest the verdict acquitting three police officers in the shooting of a man.

Sharpton lies about nearly everything; and he doesn't have the authority (moral or otherwise) to deport a fart.

Al Sharpton should be denouncing illegal aliens as murderers of black Americans..

and insist on the deportation of the lot of them...

Oh Al, talking about getting arrested at church is sinful. Oh wait, Baptists are now into civil disobedience, or is it just black Baptists? Interesting how these haters disguise themselves by using Jesus for cover.

Why do these comics like Al get any respect or attention?

Wrong Al! Do you not realize your jeopardizing your position as an activist?

If Obama loses the nomination, the next *famous* activist will be Hispanic.

Maybe some of those law abiding illlegal “Cholo(s)” will beat and rob rev race hustler shafton.

People like shafton should be locked away in a gulag for eternity.

No, he only lies about people until they kill themselves.
Maybe I should start race riots too, then I'll become a media expert on race relations in ten years too.

Sharpton merely sees the illegals as another political tool he can use. None of these “political activists” care about American society one tiny little bit.

Al Sharpton has more intestinal vocal fortitude than just about any man I have ever heard with the exception of Jesse Jackson.
