and irrelevant as well

how many here have his net worth or run as many different organizations and businesses?

taxes can get missed,,,,but that has nothing to do with his work in civil rights,,,




This thread is about Al's works in civil wrongs, because of all the people he has wronged.
Also, Al hasn't simply missed his taxes. His tax evasion has been cumulative.



based on what, ? and again,, so what?

mlk worked in civil rights, that means seeking to fight for citizens to be treated EQUALLY when it comes to their RIGHTS

mlk was also charged with FALSIFYING Taxes,, should that overshadow his civil rights work?

willie nelson is also an admired public figure who speaks out on different issues , and he has been in tax trouble before

should Martha stewart never lead a cause or have a voice either? would there be some issue about that?

what about mary j blige, who fights in the cure for aids,, should she just be silent,, since she has had tax trouble?


if trouble with taxes is the best people can come up with to try and quite the voice of a political dissenter,, that dissenter must be doing something right,,,,

Some people will overlook the controversies pertaining to Tawana Brawley, Freddie's Fashion Mart, Crown Heights and Duke University because Al Sharpton is one of them, a liberal Democrat.



how long ago was the most recent occasion of Sharpton being 'wrong'

He wasnt wrong on Ferguson and addressing unnecessary killing of citizens, the treatment of citizens by those in authority, and the accountability of authority to its citizens.


so, can we get some RECENT history to complain about,, please?

if not, can we allow people the reality of growth and knowledge and aknowledge what they have done LATELY,,?,,,,(meaning sooner than a decade or TWO decades ago)


ok, how about the fact that corporations pay him to not screech racism?

http://nypost.com/2015/01/04/how-sharpton-gets-paid-to-not-cry-racism-at-corporations/

the fight lives on...laugh helping blacks there, isn't he...


he has contributors, their reasons for contributing can be speculated all day long

AND

he doesnt just help blacks
he also helps others like disenfranchised workers and the lgbt community and impoverished/urban communities

expand your knowledge beyond what media chooses to include
he helps himself...sorry your unable to see this, but thats the way it is...

he helps himself, so do I

so does everyone here,, that's why we are so particular about paying 'taxes' which we don't feel are for 'us'


he ALSO helps others

willie nelson, martha stewart, and mar j blige... and you forgot wesley snipes as well... but none of these are directly famous for helping people, being a spokes person for rights and civil issues...A.S. only claim to fame is riding the backs of the blacks, but now it seems it's easier for him to screw them over to make his money...

too many to name, look up the national action network, many things that his org has championed, including but not limited to, addressing profiling policies, getting voters registered and educated, gun buy backs and education initiatives, to name a few,,,

Gun buybacks? All that does is offer much less than market value to law abiding citizens to render themselves helpless against criminals who won't give up their guns. Al Sharpton is about Al Sharpton and couldn't care less about you, me, or anyone else. He took the Dream MLK told us about and perverted it because realization of the Dream renders Sharpton irrelevant.

he is only as well known as he is because he has so SUCCESSFULLY kept that dream in the news,,,,

without Sharptons, mainstream media would care less about what was happening to the 'have nots'

This is so true. This is why MLK would have no respect for that guy...

That's just it. He keeps the Dream in the news instead of accepting the fact that most people don't consider race. And this "national discussion" about race that people keep saying we need to have? Why? We have people who have different skin colors. What's to discuss? That means nothing to most people, which is exactly what MLK's dream was all about. But Al Sharpton keeps it "in the news" because if it's not, he's not. He doesn't give a damn about you or anyone else.

most people DO consider it, most people don't admit it to themselves,,,but it shows up in their actions when they are in positions that impact others lives and freedoms,,,

and so is his repayment plan

and irrelevant as well

how many here have his net worth or run as many different organizations and businesses?

taxes can get missed,,,,but that has nothing to do with his work in civil rights,,,




Well, actually in the business world the money that his organizations rack in and added to his net worth of 5 Million.. is not even on blip on the screen. He would be considered a " Mom & Pop" organization

Running multiple companies or a corporation with sub companies of that size is easy if you have any business or leadership qualities, which he clearly does not

One of the taxes he didn't pay was Federal payroll tax.. Paying Federal payroll tax is accounting 101... automatic.. ( its the one tax you make sure your finance dept. pays.) just like paying the rent for your offices.. automatic. ( which he has stiffed landlords on too). Any bookkeeper knows this, as does any accountant.

The IRS will not automatically hit you with penalties and interest.. if they think what you or your companies did was a honest mistake... but they will "hammer you" if they feel you did it intentionally.. he is getting hammered with penalties.. why.. because his lack of paying his taxes spans years.. not a 1 year oversight.

This on top of the other liens he had or has levied against him and his corporations by a multitude of service or real estate companies.. all for non payment of services rendered. legitimate services rendered. Many of these services required a contract to be signed in advance. But clearly signing a binding contract means nothing to him as well.

After all... he's AL SHARPTON

The above actions on HIS part define HIS character and moral structure

He is a leach.. a tax cheat.. a deadbeat... a ambulance chaser.

But hey, everyone gets to pick their hero's.. and he's one of yours.. good for you.

THIS IS NOT TRUE

where are you getting your information?

do you run many companies or head many organizations? are you an accountant or an IRS rep?

lol

to reiterate,,,,I have no 'hero'

I give credit where credit is due

and I give credit to Sharpton for staying in the struggle for civil rights and for staying involved in the lives of impoverished people, underserved communities, and young people trying to make their lives better, and for staying a force to be heard and a resource for those who would otherwise go unheard,,,
