Hundreds of cops have been ordered to bring their “hats and bats” — helmets and old-school wooden nightsticks — to the Rev. Al Sharpton’s march against police brutality, sources said Thursday.

About 350 officers, some on their days off, were told to report to the Staten Island rally at 6 a.m. Saturday, two hours earlier than usual.

**SNIP**

“We have no reason to believe there will be any problems. Our only concern is that there will be outsiders coming to cause problems,” a police source said.

Sharpton sees all the fun they're having in Fullerton, Mo. and realizes he may have really missed an opportunity exploiting Eric Garner's tragic death at the hand's of an an a-hole cop.

He'll get no traction with this.

How about the Crown Heights riots 23 years ago where Sharpton led 3 days of riots which left the Jewish boy Yankel Rosenbaum dead.

I would've pulled him aside and said . . .

"Hey fella. Come take a walk with me. (We walk away from the store leaving the a-hole 'roided-out young cop behind.) I don't wanna bust your balls or nothin' but the owner of this convenience store, Haji or whatever the f@#& his name is, has a legitimate beef against you."

"What is this? Three, four times we been called about you in front of this place? It doesn't look good, you know what I mean? I'm not tellin' you to stop, just stop doin' it here. Take it around the corner or better yet, do it outta ya car. Just leave Haji and his store alone. Ya got me?"

OBAMA, HOLDER,SHARPTON AND THE RACE WAR

RACE BAITERS ...

Just in Chicago, every week end, dozens of blacks are murdered and wounded by black and nobody in the black leadership, neither Obama, nor Holder or the race pimps, care. When Blacks kill Blacks, there are not mob protesting and rioting, neither Holder’s Justice Department would send 50 special agents to investigate and prosecute the culprits of a single case.

A 2007 special report released by the Bureau of Justice Statistics, reveals that approximately 8,000 — and, in certain years, as many as 9,000 African Americans are murdered annually in the United States. This chilling figure is accompanied by another equally sobering fact, that 93% of these murders are in fact perpetrated by other Blacks. The analysis, supported by FBI records, finds that in 2005 alone, for example, African Americans accounted for 49% of all homicide victims in the US — again, almost exclusively at the hands of other African Americans.

When the murderer is Black and the victim is White, the media do not mention the race of the criminal.

To put these number in perspective, recall that over 6,400 U.S. service men and women have been killed in Iraq and Afghanistan combined over the course of a decade-long war fought in those nations.

If a Black police officer in the fulfillment of its duty happen to kill another Black, an Hispanic or a white person, the media will not accuse the officer as murderer even before the details of the case are known as it happens when the officer is a white policeman and the dead person is Black.

”Perhaps it is time that Americans were finally told the truth about the police, so they might avoid falling prey to the self-serving lies of the aforementioned, self-anointed guardians of “civil rights.”

”The Bureau of Justice Statistics reports that in 1998, fully 62 percent of the 367 suspects killed by police officers nationwide were white, and 35 percent were black. In fact, police killings of white suspects have outnumbered those of black suspects in every single year since 1978.”

” black officers are far likelier to shoot black suspects than are white officers. In 1998, for instance, the black-officer-kills-black-felon rate was 32 per 100,000 black officers – much higher than the white-officer-kills-black-felon rate of 14 per 100,000 white officers.”

”While part of this disparity is due to the fact that black officers often tend to be assigned to black neighborhoods, clearly no case can be made from these numbers that white officers are in any way “trigger-happy” when confronting black suspects.”

”The intra-racial nature of most police shootings has existed for many years. Between 1976 and 1998, about 65 percent of homicides by police officers were against suspects of the same racial background. The rate at which white officers shoot black suspects has been declining steadily for two decades, while the rate at which they shoot white suspects has remained fairly constant over that same period. When a white officer kills a suspect today, that suspect is usually white (63 percent). When a black officer kills a suspect, that suspect is usually black (81 percent).”

”Overall, black officers are slightly likelier than white officers to kill a suspect in the line of duty. Indeed whites comprise 87 percent of all police nationwide, but account for only about 80 percent of homicides against criminal suspects, regardless of race. Meanwhile blacks, who constitute 11 percent of American police officers, are responsible for about 17 percent of homicides against criminal suspects.”

”Some readers may find this information shocking, particularly in light of the media’s and the civil rights establishment’s disproportionate focus on instances of white officers killing black suspects.”

The rest of the history
