I don’t claim to be a Duke buff, but unlike Sharpton, the Neo-Nazi leader does not appear to have a lot of bodies around him. I’m not even seeing him being linked to any race riots.
Meanwhile Sharpton was attached to racial violence across New York City. He didn’t just say hateful things, he led mobs whose members went on killing sprees. The worst Sharpton massacre occurred at Freddy’s whose owner Sharpton had denounced as a “White Interloper”.
1991: A Hasidic Jewish driver in Brooklyn’s Crown Heights section accidentally kills Gavin Cato, a 7-year-old black child, and antisemitic riots erupt. Sharpton races to pour gasoline on the fire. At Gavin’s funeral he rails against the “diamond merchants” — code for Jews — with “the blood of innocent babies” on their hands. He mobilizes hundreds of demonstrators to march through the Jewish neighborhood, chanting, “No justice, no peace.” A rabbinical student, Yankel Rosenbaum, is surrounded by a mob shouting “Kill the Jews!” and stabbed to death.
Can you remind me of the time David Duke led a lynch mob through a Jewish neighborhood? I’m sure he would have loved to, but unlike Sharpton, he doesn’t have the protection of Democratic politicians.
1995: When the United House of Prayer, a large black landlord in Harlem, raises the rent on Freddy’s Fashion Mart, Freddy’s white Jewish owner is forced to raise the rent on his subtenant, a black-owned music store. A landlord-tenant dispute ensues; Sharpton uses it to incite racial hatred. “We will not stand by,” he warns malignantly, “and allow them to move this brother so that some white interloper can expand his business.” Sharpton’s National Action Network sets up picket lines; customers going into Freddy’s are spat on and cursed as “traitors” and “Uncle Toms.” Some protesters shout, “Burn down the Jew store!” and simulate striking a match. “We’re going to see that this cracker suffers,” says Sharpton’s colleague Morris Powell. On Dec. 8, one of the protesters bursts into Freddy’s, shoots four employees point-blank, then sets the store on fire. Seven employees die in the inferno.
Maybe something like this happened around David Duke. I would love to hear about it. But as a New Yorker, I know about the time these things happened around Sharpton.
Sharpton is the David Duke of New York City except his hate isn’t theoretical. There are actual corpses. And he isn’t a pariah. Every Democratic presidential candidate comes down to kiss his ring.
Obama and Holder have both spoken at Sharpton events. As a Jewish person, I take that far more seriously than a GOP congressman appearing at a David Duke event.
I don’t believe Duke actually got around to fulfilling his dream of killing Jews. Al Sharpton has already lived the dream.
LOL!
Happy New Year, Norm!

Happy new Year to you and yours as well ;)
Oops, got my threads mixed up with responses but a little Billy is good for all souls ;)
Someone who is in the mood, should look up what Duke did for $5000.00, that hurt the pro-187 effort.
David Duke has indeed been a gift to the Democrats through the MSM. Because, at one time, he was a registered Republican and ran for office as such in Louisiana, the MSM and Democrats had a decade plus of smear paste against the GOP as being tied to the KKK.
Logic and facts are meaningless to the MSM when it conflicts with their PREJUDICE! Yes, it is not mere bias, it is indeed ingrained prejudice as witnessed by 20+ years of misbehavior.
What is David Duke up to these days? Last I recall was back in 2003 when he had a new organization called NOFEAR (National Organization for European American Rights).
Another example how the race hustlers are causing the black mans word to become of little respect.
