Here’s the latest video from Project Veritas showing how the families and attorneys of Eric Garner, Trayvon Martin, and Michael Brown really feel about Rev. Al Sharpton.
Additionally, local clergy and others express their opinions about how Sharpton exploits tragedy for personal gain.
Via Veritas Visuals:
The New York Post reported:
Al Sharpton is all about the Benjamins, a daughter of police chokehold victim Eric Garner claims in a bombshell videotape.
Erica Snipes tees off on the reverend as interested primarily in money during a secretly recorded conversation by controversial conservative activist James O’Keefe’s group, Project Veritas.
One of O’Keefe’s investigators poses as a Garner supporter with a hidden camera during a protest last month at the St. George Ferry Terminal on Staten Island.
“You think Al Sharpton is kind of like a crook in a sense?” the investigator is heard asking Garner’s oldest daughter.
“He’s about this,” Snipes replies, rubbing her fingers together.
“He’s about money with you?” the undercover asks.
“Yeah,” Snipes responds.
Snipes, 24, also complained that the Staten Island director of Sharpton’s National Action Network, Cynthia Davis, scolded her for handing out street fliers about her father’s case that did not include NAN’s logo.

...at least SOMEONE around here ‘gets it’...
> Obama would kill to protect Sharpton’s reputation? OK. I doubt it, but I have no idea what is really going on between BO & Rev. Al.
Oh Ii don’t know...ask Andrew Breibart, Loretta Fuddy, Michael Hastings, Donald Young, etc...oh yeah you can’t...
You’re not looking at the bigger picture. O’Keefe has been a thorn in the Left’s side for some time...this time he’s attacked one of the torch bearer’s of the blavk community who has very close ties to the WH
one word: reparations
O’Keefe in fear of life from disappointed Freepers.
If this is all he’s got, then I agree with you, but I suspect this is just the first drip.
I agree that James should have been afraid. If he hadn’t tweeted that, he might be joining Andrew as we speak. As is, his site went down early this am. Fortunately, the story already broke in other venues.
Al is a huge part of O’s plan for black anarchy. I don’t think he wants his key players blown out of the water.
Al Sharpton, Jesse Jackson, Louis Farrakhan, 0bama and others made a conscious decision many years ago to avoid real, productive labor and became con men. They’ve all been highly successful in their chosen careers.
No doubt about it but isn't this the pot calling the kettle black?
Wait a minute, is that racist?
It is one thing for conservatives to point out the obvious - that Sharpton is a fraud and huckster. It is quite something else to have video footage of the family of St. Trayvon and St Michael Brown dissing Sharpton and what a fraud he has been to them - that Sharpton used them, the icons of the so-called civil rights movement today, and fleeced the Ferguson situation for his own gain.
That it’s coming from them IS explosive for Sharpton.
I have no idea what is really going on between BO & Rev. Al.
++++++
I wouldn’t be surprised that Sharpton was 0’s ‘go to guy’ when he needs to ‘self medicate’.
This is probably more sinister than some FReepers believe. O’keefe hasn’t jacked us before.
“This is a Glenn Beck level “cry wolf””
Yep. Which is, sadly enough, all we can expect from O’Keefe from now on. Him and Beck are two peas in a pod that way.
We have all known this for years. This is no revelation.
Yup.
Either he really exaggerated what he had or he’s been convinced to put out something less harmful if he values his life.
Until you have walked a mile in his shoes, I would suggest that you don’t pre-judge James. He has opened a hornet’s nest with this - just wait and see. The liberals will be gunning for him - so to speak.
Sure, blacks are such a peaceful group just like the Mooselimbs.
Pray America is waking
I'm surprised so few FReepers remember that's how O'Keefe operates.
> I agree that James should have been afraid. If he hadn’t tweeted that, he might be joining Andrew as we speak. As is, his site went down early this am. Fortunately, the story already broke in other venues.
I’m sure Al put his black hat hacker skills to use to take down O’Keefe’s website too...
