Sharpton: We Cannot "Tolerate" Those On The "Far Right" That Don't Care About Freddie Gray
RealClearPolitics Video ^ | April 28, 2015

(VIDEO-AT-LINK)

On MSNBC's coverage of Baltimore on Tuesday afternoon, network anchor Al Sharpton denounced last night's rioting in the city but also said we cannot "tolerate" those on the "far right" who "may not care" about Freddie Gray.

AL SHARPTON: The fact is that we cannot let the looting and rioting become used by those that might want to justify over and overly aggressive policing. And two, to lose in the process of the discussion, the fact that this is about Freddie Gray and justice for he and his family. I tell a lot of young people that we cannot tolerate those on the far right that may not care about Freddie Gray....

I’m trying to understand what rioting, looting and burning of cars and stores has to do with Freddie? I’m sorry he dies, and I didn’t know him. But to destroy property doesn’t send a message of reconciliation or one of understanding and regret. It does send a message of hate and revenge, like retribution. Do these people think they are at war against the people of Baltimore? Kind of like what ISIS is doing in Syria and in Iraq? Are these folks really fundamentalist insurgents?

I don’t know if your list is legit or not. It’s the internet and all that. I’ll look into it. But for the benefit of the doubt, if true, that kid should be alive and healthy in a penetentary for the rest of his life. Had he been in jail, he’d be alive today.

Exactly, I’m on the far right and think what happened to Freddie Gray was an outrage ... but I also want to hear the facts before I insist that someone be lynched.

We’re all built up with progress
But sometimes I must confess
We can deal with rockets and dreams
But reality, what does it mean
Ain’t nothing said
‘Cause Freddie’s dead

“I guess this means Al wants people on the right dead.”

“Black race pimp opportunist.

And there is absolutely no evidence that Sharpton has ever been anything else. It does, however, perfectly qualify him as Obama’s senior adviser.
