Sharpton Calls Out Liberals Ignoring Black-on-Black Crime!
NewsBusters ^ | Mark Finkelstein

Posted on 07/07/2021 7:14:15 AM PDT by governsleastgovernsbest

When it comes to crime, liberals prefer to talk about guns rather than criminals. Morning Joe gave two examples of that today, first playing a clip of New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo bragging about being the first to declare something called a "gun violence disaster emergency." It seems little more than a PR stunt, with the only measure mentioned being enhanced crime-reporting requirements for large police departments.

Then came a clip of the Chicago police department superintendent decrying "too many illegal guns in our city." But Al Sharpton then sounded a surprising, and pretty gutsy, voice of reason, saying the black community, in addition to condemning unjustified police shootings, needs to focus on black-on-black crime.

So Al is Ok with mass incarceration, again. That’s what it will take to end urban violence.

New York is Sharpton’s base. “Law and Order” ex cop Adams, although he is a flawed cardboard cutout of no substance or competence, will be the next mayor of NYC. Sharpton is saying the right things to get close to this guy and his handlers to keep the bucks flowing to him and his cronies.

Only difference is Reverend Al isn't right twice a day, more like once a decade.

It really irritates me when I see banners calling Al “Rev.” Al has never had a church, never had a congregation, and never went to divinity school. He was “ordained” by a DC preacher at age 10 and has maintained the lie ever since. He’s a phony, and this might be the first time he’s come down on the right side of an issue. From Tawana Brawley to the Duke Five, he’s always been wrong, done immense damage to those involved, but never offered an apology. He still owes millions to the IRS but his Deep State friends keep him out of jail. He is a phony low-life in every aspect of the terms. He is an insult to those who have properly earned the title of “Rev”.
