Let’s be honest, Al Sharpton is a asshole who has contributed pretty much nothing to the universe except ride the back of hatred and spread his own racism. His anti Jewish and anti-white comments have sparked riots (that he lead) and violence. He has led charges that repeatedly destroyed the lives of innocent men (black and white). Not a single time has he ever apologized. Not once.
Al Sharptons is to victimization what Don King was to sports promotion.
So in a world where people screamed that any boycott of the Dixie Chicks was the same thing as censorship. In a world where where black artists feel free to talk about buying women for a few bottles of overprices champagne (something I fully support, by the way) suddenly it is a race relations crisis for Don Imus to use the term “nappy headed ho’s”.
I wonder how much Don Al Sharpton will clear form this little escapade in “contributions”.
Look, it was a dumb thing to say and if people want to boycott and bring economic pressure to bear I support their right to do it (as I did with the Dixie Chicks boycotts). What I do object to is racist, violence spreading fools like Sharpton talking out of both sides of their mouth on these issues.
Fortunately, Jason Whitlock is doing a good job of pointing this out.
