“How about the ugly things that Sharpton said that got people killed at Freddies Fashion Mart and Crown Heights?”
Zackly!
But it is not “politically correct” to recall that Sharpton apparently incited a mass murder at Freddies Fashion Mart in 1995
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Al_Sharpton
“Roland James Smith, Jr., 51, a Harlem resident with a criminal record going back 30 years, walked into Freddy’s Fashion Mart, clothing store at 272 West 125th Street, pulled out a gun, ordered all the black customers to leave, spilled paint thinner on several bins of clothing and set them on fire — a fire that resulted in killing 8 people including Smith.
Smith had been part of a group of picketers, led by Al Sharpton , head of the National Action Network, protesting the white owner of Freddies Fashion Mart plans to evict his black sub tenant.
The picketing, which had gone on for months, had led Harari to seek relief with the State Supreme Court. In papers filed just one day before the fire, he said, “Recently, the protesters have made motions of striking a match and throwing it on outside clothing displays or in the doorway of the store.”
An affidavit by Kareem Brunner, a black security guard killed in the blaze, said that he had been called a “cracker lover” and “would get mine as a traitor [to the black race].” Brunner, was the only black that Smith did not order out of the store before setting it afire.
Store manager, Steve Brodsky, described how a particularly vicious demonstrator called Shabazz would force his way into the store, pushing Brodsky aside and shout “I will be back to burn the Jew store down — burn, burn, burn.”
That Sharpton has a talk show on MSNBC is an example of the total ethical and moral bankruptcy the Corrupt Liberal Media in the USA today.
“Liberalism” has killed journalism.
Can we assume this was considered to be 'not a racial incident'?
