Sharpton breaks promise to Trayvon supporters, fails to show up in Sanford for Easter Occupation
By Matthew Boyle - The Daily Caller 4 hrs ago
MSNBC host and the Rev. Al Sharpton has broken a major promise he made to those supporting him and Trayvon Martins family: he didnt show up in Sanford, Fla., to occupy the town over Easter weekend.
On March 26, Sharpton had vowed to occupy Sanford over Easter weekend to show support for Trayvon, the 17-year-old black teen who was shot by Hispanic man George Zimmerman on Feb. 26.
Were going to have a full blown occupation of Sanford with tents and everything over Easter weekend until [authorities] either arrest George Zimmerman, or arrest us for praying for his arrest, Sharpton told ABC News about two weeks before Easter.
Now though, on Easter weekend, Sharpton is nowhere to be found in the central Florida town. Instead, according to his Twitter feed, hes in Harlem.

He heard skinheads with guns are patrolling Sanford. Self preservation is his second greatest quality. Right after self aggrandizement.
Perhaps his contract with Fox is on shaky ground from his first round of face-time.
Oops, MSNBC.
Funny thing about your point is that when my father was a kid in Germany before ww2 he said they rooted for the nazis over the communist too.
The more things change the more they stay the same. Just replace German communist with black panther party.
I said I despised Nazi’s too and your point is well taken. I’d like to see them, the Black Panthers and what’s left of the KKK no longer in existence. It was obviously a bad way to try and make a point.....I meant no offense. They’re all societal poison.
I heard Sharpton was at that Easter Egg Hunt that the cops had to shut down because the parents were fighting each other over the candy.
Yeah, like the fact that they stereotyped ZIMMERMAN by his name and assumed he was a JEW.
A point of interest is that the only reason the TRAYVON incident is news is BECAUSE OF IT'S RARITY.
I mean, blacks kill whites all the time, and it's not news. Blacks kill blacks, and it's not news.
But let one (half)white guy kill a black guy, and .... National Headlines. BECAUSE IT HARDLY EVER HAPPENS!
It's always about the money.
That's because it's almost impossible to find white on black violence.
Sharpton needs more dead black victims so he can get more money. Or find a real job.
How Odd. I was just thinking the same thing while I read your post.
