Getting arrested is how Rev. Al earns a living.

He and his fellow-travelers.

They shoulda TAZED the bro

<<<betting that the honor of providing such a service to the City of New York as that would be one that any of New York's Finest would be overjoyed to provide....becoming known as "the officer who tazed Sharpton" would be a heck of a feather in anyone's cap  :-)

During 2007, Sharpton participated in a public debate with atheist Christopher Hitchens, during which Sharpton defended his religious faith and his belief in the existence of God.[21]

I did respect Hitchens for his mind, though he has taken positions I deeply reject.

The fact he actually got on a stage with this fool Sharpton, drops my respect for him several notches
 

Agreed on all counts.

Someone who has something that is truly intellectually meaningful to say rarely needs to use a megaphone, as Al frequently does..

Ugh!

Indeed....disgusting, awful, fame-seekers and bandwagon-jumpers.

Considering that the Messiah / Deity Sean Bell was "unsuccessfully" attempting to contract the services of A PROFESSIONAL WHORE on the night when the police officers honorably, lawfully, properly and professionally put him down like the rabid dog that he apparently was, it begs the question as to whether he would actually have gone through with the original wedding to begin with.  It's so convenient when one can ride a dead person's coattails to fame and fortune, isn't it?  You won't get any of those pesky "bits of truth" interfering in the matter.

Also, considering that THE PROFESSIONAL WHORE apparently didn't want to do her chosen job when it came to Mr. Bell, it suggests that there 'may' have been something particularly awful about him.....something that repulsed even a PROFESSIONAL WHORE.

And these Leftists see no problem in holding him up as their martyr.

To: Stoat; All

There was someone on one of these FR threads awhile back who was quite insistent that the whole “bachelor party” and “about to be married that day” theme is a total fraud to gain public sympathy. Does anyone recall that or know more about it? IIRC, the poster said it has been established that there was no “wedding” scheduled at all, that the supposed “fiance” had not been fitted for any wedding dress, and that Sean Bell was merely a 2-bit drug dealer pimped up by Al Sharpton into a posthumous martyr. Does anyone know about whether any facts have been established about Sean Bell, hero and martyr to the delusional left?

I remember seeing clips of those riots on TV and noting that it seemed organized.

One would smash the shop window and move on, then the looters moved in.

This pattern repeated itself, so I wonder if the window smasher was one of the R.A.P. bunch, and the rest was either more of the same group or one or two instigators followed by willing members of the general mob. It did not seem to take much 'instigation' once the shop windows were broken...

Re post # 27, what you say sounds familiar but I think that our friend Clemenza or perhaps other New York FReepers would be able to verify it for sure.

I sincerely hope so, and any 'regular' person who organized a simultaneous shutdown of multiple major highway arterials, bridges, tunnels and thoroughfares would wish that he had remained in bed that day.

how will he get away with this ?

Sharpton has been granted a perpetual 'get out of jail free' card because he has been Anointed as a "Civil Rights Campaigner" and therefore is immune to the laws that help to keep our society a safer and more congenial place.

Anyone who would dare to suggest that Sharpton be held to the same standards as everyone else will instantly find themselves labeled a RACIST!, will have his / her career destroyed, would have his / her home burned to the ground and may face jail time as a HATE CRIMINAL.

Such is the world that the Left has brought us....one that is obsessed with race, victimology and white guilt.

thanks for the reply,
but obviously nyc endorses mob rule.

Somebody in law enforcement should have the integrity to close sharpton down,once and for “all”,as in all of the law abiding people nationwide.
When you have to reroute your daily transit ride to school or work and have more on your mind due to this race baiting moron,something has to be done.
All I’ve read so far is they’re only charged with disorderly conduct.


“If you’re not going to lock up the guilty in this town I guess you have to lock up the innocent,” said Sharpton. “Where we go from there is anybody’s guess,” Rachel Noerdlinger, Sharpton’s spokeswoman, said later, adding that wherever protesters end up, “they’ll be arrested praying.”

Large crowds are expected for the midweek acts of civil disobedience. For the massive pray-in, Sharpton is asking protesters to gather Wednesday at 3 p.m. in at least six places around the city: 125th Street and Third Avenue; 60th Street and Third Avenue; 34th Street and Park Avenue; Varick and Houston streets; One Police Plaza; and House of the Lord Church on Atlantic Avenue in Brooklyn.

Sharpton said the protesters would fan out from their meeting points, but he would not disclose their destinations.
+++++++++++++++++
this is more than a disgrace.

Agreed on all counts, and upon retrospect and in light of new information acquired since my initial New York Post article posting here, I would in fact want to withdraw my earlier expressed encouragement for people to send the Police Commissioner a hearty thank you in this particular circumstance, for reasons that I'll now detail.

In the videos included along with this article,

wcbstv.com - Sharpton Arrested In Citywide 'Slowdown' Protests

the on-camera reporter says (paraphrased) that it was all a very organized affair, and it was organized down to the point of the 'protesters' handing the police a list of people who had indicated a willingness to be arrested.  Those persons stepped forward and were duly arrested.  This was not a 'riot' that was bravely put down by New York's Finest; it was a manufactured event, from start to finish, done with the assistance and blessing of New York's political administration.

If true, this was all a mutual little dance between the City of New York and Al Sharpton.  I therefore have zero respect for the Commissioner, a politician, who apparently aided Sharpton in shutting down the City and causing untold strife for perhaps millions of people, most of whom are probably far more honest and virtuous than he has proven himself to be..

I don't blame the regular police officers....this sort of thing is beyond their control and they are only able to do their best with the situation that's handed them by the politicians

I’ve been sick for the past few days and couldn’t even sleep yesterday afternoon because of all of the helicopters above the Police HQ/Brooklyn Bridge area, which is just north of here.

Too bad that the “arrests” were farcical, with people deciding if they wished to be “arrested” and lining up for it. The NYPD should have ignored them and just gone after the instigators.

Thank you so much!  If you get anything suggestive of a coherent response please feel free to scan and post it here, or just distill what was said into a few words if you prefer....I'm sure that many people would be interested.

I can imagine the years and years and years that anyone else would spend behind bars if they were to simultaneously shut down all of those traffic choke points.

The power of racial politics at work here....

I'm very sorry to hear that....  here's a nice bowl of chicken soup for you

 

 

and a teddy to help you get to sleep

I hope that you will be feeling better soon!  :-)

Agreed....and it's a further shame that I haven't seen that aspect of the matter reported elsewhere....I suppose they don't want to mention it for fear of upsetting Al Sharpton and his passionate supporters.....
