Re: Did Al Sharpton's rhetoric contribute to the deaths of 2 NYPD Police officers?

Al Sharpton's race hustling and poverty pimping are long known and he's a frequent guest to the Obama whitehouse, but in recent days Sharpton led a rally in NYC where "What Do We Want?… Dead Cops!” was shouted. As we know, two of NYPD's finest were executed by a man who may be an islamist. The two cops weren't even white-just cops.

NY cop killer had long rap sheet, apparent mental instability; 'Watch what I'm going to do'

NEW YORK — The gunman who fatally ambushed two police officers in their squad car had a long criminal record, a hatred for police and the government and an apparent history of mental instability that included an attempt to hang himself a year ago, authorities said Sunday.

Investigators were trying to determine if Brinsley had taken part in any protests over the deaths of Michael Brown and Eric Garner, whose names he invoked in his online threat, or simply latched on to the cause for the final act in a violent rampage.

They said he traveled frequently between the South and New York, where he fathered a child in Brooklyn, and had been in the city earlier in the week.

Brinsley, 28, had at least 19 arrests in Georgia and Ohio, spent two years in prison for gun possession and had a troubled childhood so violent that his mother was afraid of him, police said. He ranted online about police and the government and expressed "self-despair and anger at himself and where his life was," Boyce said.

Boyce said Brinsley's mother believed he had undiagnosed mental problems and may have been on medication at some point, but detectives were still trying to determine if he had a mental illness.

And you come here and ask people to believe that Al Sharpton is to blame? I mean, wtf man?

I don't have access to those books. Do you have any link online that has evidence to Obama meeting with Military advisers less than 61 times over 5 years?

So Al Sharpton has no association with these protests, where they called for the murder of cops that happened just a week later? Sure thing.

There's several other people who have visited the white house just as often or more than Sharpton. I don't know how White House visits can lead on to believe more than a person visiting the White House X amount of times...

I think the point you have established is that they are well acquainted. I agree.

Al Sharpton's actions often result in violence, property destruction and in this case 2 deaths, when will you get that message. Lets not pretend the flames weren't fanned. This is what no justice no peace means.

Let's not pretend that your thread is based on false premise either.

You claimed the gunman was Islamist, when in fact, he had been in trouble with the law time and time again, and that he might possibly have had some mental disability.

You also claim that Sharpton is to blame for the killing of the cops.

Many false statements, not much truth or substance to the claims posted.

I didn't say he is responsible (as in directly responsible) I said he contributed to their deaths. Thats also how I worded the poll, please read.
And your claim about the shooter completely disregards his apparent associations with radical islam.

It does nobody any favors to deny these associations.

Once again I said contributed to, and he did-in fact those dead cops were Al's chickens coming home to roost.

Sharpton helped lead 3 protests that day, and it says in the first 3 seconds he was in DC. Its rhetoric was also spewed in NYC and I posted the raw video of that.

Sharpton contributed to those cops executions.

Oh so now we've discovered your standard. I'd also like to point out that you, a supposed conservative, are dismissing personal responsibility in order to throw accusations at someone whom you don't like politically.

By your own metrics you believe Rush Limbaugh, Glenn Beck, Sarah Palin, and a lot of other people who advocated "2nd amendment solutions" were responsible for the 2011 Tucson shooting which left 6 people dead and 14 people injured.

In addition to the six dead, thirteen other people were wounded by gunshot in the attack, while a fourteenth person was injured subduing Loughner.

And thus we see why I despise conservatives. They advocate things as long as it's convenient and then when called on their hypocrisy they walk it all back.

You are the 2nd lib in this thread to try that argument, except that shooter was a leftists with psych issues-and nobody was saying to kill anyone. This isn't equivocal, no matter the degree of your spin.

And the other thing I find so ridiculous about conservatives. Did I disagree with you? Yes? Then I must be a liberal.

I'm done. I think U.S. Conservative has embarrassed herself enough without my help.

Trust me, you are not the only one to notice the cognitive dissonance.
 
Re: Did Al Sharpton's rhetoric contribute to the deaths of 2 NYPD Police officers?

I want one piece of evidence that Sharpton was even PRESENT at the protest (much less led it) where "dead cops" was the rallying cry. One.
 
Re: Did Al Sharpton's rhetoric contribute to the deaths of 2 NYPD Police officers?

"Race hustler" is the new conservative term for "black guy we don't like."

The original post is ridiculously dishonest. There was one picture, followed by two videos. The first of the two videos is protesters saying "dead cops." Not cool, not acceptable. The second video is of Sharpton speaking at a rally, tastefully narrated by Fox News. They were not the same rally. Yet the obvious intent was to portray them as the same rally.

US Conservative, lying again.

And I'm speaking as someone who doesn't even LIKE Al Sharpton. It's funny that conservatives fancy themselves the ones who are all about personal responsibility ... until some "lib" says something you don't like, and then his Professor X mind control powers kick in and it's all his fault. Pathetic.

It takes a lot of nerve to accuse Al Sharpton of "Race hustling" when you're doing it in SPADES. Pun ****ing intended.

It doesn't matter. Posters not unlike the OP are addicted to the politics of demonization. It's like a drug.

Sharpton is a race hustling poverty pimp, and it sounds like you are a fan, Kobie. He spends years, even till the last week talking like this and then when two cops are executed suddenly he is in no way connected. Get out of town, Kobie-nobody is buying it.

Not a word you just posted addresses anything I said. You are reinforcing your own rank hypocrisy.

All I've asked is for one quote that encourages this sort of violence in any way. Crickets.
