Rev. Al Sharpton is not new to controversy, but he’s been in the crosshairs of both liberals and conservatives this week.
During the premiere of his nightly Comedy Central talk show, host Larry Wilmore ripped Sharpton for jumping in the fray of every racial controversy.
Not long after Wilmore roasted Sharpton for being an opportunist, a Fox & Friends guest blasted the MSNBC host.
Milwaukee County Sheriff David Clarke was parroting the talking points of police unions when he expressed relief that Attorney General Eric Holder would not be pursuing federal charges against Darren Wilson, the officer who gunned down unarmed teen Michael Brown.
The gushing support for Wilson is what you’d expect from any Fox News guest, but then Clarke went off script and began taking intensely personal swipes at Sharpton.
“I don’t expect anything intelligent to come out of the mouth of Al Sharpton,” Clarke said. “We know he is a charlatan. Al Sharpton ought to go back into the gutter he came from. The police officer is owed a lot from him, Eric Holder and the President of the United States.”
Larry Wilmore also took personal swipes at Sharpton’s weight earlier this week, telling the activist to consume food and not just air time.
Wilmore regretted that there wasn’t a black Hollywood expert to represent black actors who’d been discriminated against by the Oscars, then shouted “again?!” at the news of Rev. Al Sharpton calling an emergency meeting to address the Oscars snub.
“Sharpton?! Again?! I mean, no one else can represent us?!… You don’t have to respond to every black emergency, you’re not black Batman! A racial fire chief. ”
He continued: “Take a break man. They’re worried about you. You need to eat food, not just air time.”
Sheriff, in all my time in Law Enforcement, I never told anyone to "go back into the gutter where they came from" its not very Christ like, where is your love for human kind, the problem today its to much hate in the world, you don't have to live Al Sharpton's life, neither do you know the secret things of the man's heart, only God knows. How do you say you love God, when you don't love your neighbors of the world. Death and Life is in the power of tongue, and does who love it will eat it fruits. Speak life and not death. Remember who you are in Christ, it were God's will that got you to where you are in life today, in life none of us know if we will be alive tomorrow, If Al Sharpton is not living to God's plan, every knee shall bow at the Judgment Seat of Christ.
Al Sharpton doesn’t deserve to be slagged off like that. Black folks sure can tear each other down .Police officer is a jackass.
Let me give you Amerikkkanized Knee-Grow-peans some advice. With a Koonkasian sheriff like David Clarke don't take arms against this Krakkkerkasian government your asses are going to be annihilated and the David Clarkes of Kookasianity is going to help these good ole' white folks do it !!!!!
