See Which Fox News Anchor’s Career Al Sharpton Is Threatening To End
American news ^ | 8/23/14

Posted on 08/23/2014 7:52:56 PM PDT by Impala64ssa

Recently, Al Sharpton responded to claims that he had once asked Bill O’Reilly to donate to benefit his Harlem charity. According to O’Reilly, he donated $25,000 to the organization. So you can imagine his surprise when he found out that Sharpton had called him “racist and a brutalizer of the poor.”

“When Mr. O’Reilly started attacking me after my question of the Zimmerman verdict, he started talking about the grievance industry and that I was a ‘racial huckster,’ never telling people he knew better and that he was a contributor of mine,” Sharpton recently told the Washington Post. “If I was huckster, why would he contribute to me?”

According to O’Reilly, he made the donation only because he was told that the organization would be unable to provide Christmas dinner and presents to poor children.

Although Sharpton denies calling O’Reilly racist, he did tell reporters that O’Reilly needs to “man up and grow up.”

What do you think of Sharpton’s comments? Is he manipulative?

No good deed goes unpunished, especially dealing with this poverty pimp. It's not the first time Sharpton stabbed someone who supported him in the back. Long ago he was friends with Roy Innis, they worked together with youth groups in Bushwick attempting to get drugs out of their neighborhood. Until Sharpton gained fame and fortune exploiting the controversy surrounding the Bernie Goetz case. It all came to a head in this episode of the old Morton Downey Jr. Show.

BOR also gave money to the SPLC(Southern Poverty Law Center)
BOR loves to give to hucksters.
Just because you throw money at an organization doesn’t mean they will love you.

BOR can’t decide which side of the fence he should sit on.

O’Reilly use to have Sharpton the charlatan on his show, giving him an air of respectability. O’Reilly is getting what he deserves.

Al Sharpton is a racist and a rabble rouser. He’s a social vandal.

OBAMA, HOLDER AND THE RACE WAR

RACE PIMPS

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 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.

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.
