![]() I love this one,,,,what 'special privileges' would that be? sounds like the gays response here.. well, for starters, how about committing crimes and not get punished? why is there such a disproportionate number of minorities incarcerated then? bad parenting? making bad decisions? getting caught? lets just give black folks a break when they get arrested, because so many are already in jail... ![]() they get breaks because SO many get arrested? seems like an oxymoron, dontcha think? but it is easier for people to just feel its an inate demographic trait and not a systemic issue,,,, and that's their prerogative,, I don't agree, the history of the US and my experience as a black person around black people, and my research about 'implicit' (that's the subliminal stuff we don't realize is manipulating our choices and thoughts) associations in this country, lead me to believe that a systemic issue is much more ROBABLE/LIKELY are you trying to change the subject? if you break a law, and get caught breaking that law, you go to jail... color is not an issue there... is that hard to understand? don't do the crime if you don't want to do the time... blaming white people is just an excuse |

Frankly, I don't care one way or the other what Al Sharpton does.
I may point out the bad things that he has done, but I'll leave it to God to judge his heart. |

Al Sharpton is a self righteous idiot only looking to plaster his face all over tv he's no civil rights leader he's and btw it's the 21c are we still worried about race relations and if u don't want to get harassed by police don't give them a reason to harass you
|
|
|

I don't know his character or his motives, I know his results though
and kudos to him for it,,, and yes, its the 21st century, not even a full century since we had laws on the books denying rights to minorities,, so what does the century have to do with it? the idea that that behavior and attitude is ok and defensable existed hundreds of years,, it certainly doesn't disappear in one or two generations and police no longer need a reason to 'harass' in many areas of the country,,, if you don't live in one or haven't experienced one, I understand the blind faith you have in their character,,,,, |

the idea that that behavior and attitude is ok and defensable existed hundreds of years,, it certainly doesn't disappear in one or two generations Yep, minorities are still dealing with the results of Democrat-driven racist policies of the 20th Century. |

You see, a leader does not have to know every little aspect of every task involved in running his operations. He just has to be smart enough to surround himself with the people who do know those tasks, the rules & regulations. That is how a business is run. That is how a leader operates. I absolutely agree. I dont believe everyone is great at leading EVERYTHING. I dont run companies, but I do wonderful at running a household, teaching a classroom,, etc and I also believe not being good at leading some things doesnt equate to not being good at leading anything I also believe that not being a good leader is a sign of having bad 'character' or an indication that one shouldnt have a voice or fight for causes they believe in,,, ps its kewl to know even millionaires post here on mingle My financial worth was never mentioned by me, and frankly has nothing to do with the subject matter. You asked me if I have ever run a company.. and I answered you. In one of your earlier post on a different subject you mentioned that you work in a finance dept.( if I am not mistaken) so I spoke of finance to you., but above you state a classroom?.. And as I stated, stiffing people (liens) has nothing to do with business.. but everything to do with deception... thus character flaw... of the serious nature But by all means... follow that leader.. I prefer not to. your experience was implied to be similar to Sharptons,, your responsibilities where taxes are concerned were kind of put out there for an example of the standard Sharpton should have I just figured, you had a similar standing and complexity to your business dealings that he did,,, and again,, for about the HUNDREDTH time, I don't have people I 'follow', I have causes and beliefs and people have similar causes and beliefs I have similar belief in the cause that Sharpton takes up,,,and I give him credit for his effort to do so,, My business experience similar to Sharpton Lol!!! We would be out of business!!... and some of us most likely in a federal prison for tax evasion. But I guess we could have our " task force".. work on the appeal. Since they are just waiting around for something to happen. And yes, I was stating a business example of where he should be.. its called corporate responsibility..( paying your taxes & contractors) You mentioned your causes and beliefs 2 times to me, not 100. I guess you told 98 other people who questioned your agenda the same thing. |

I guess you told 98 other people who questioned your agenda the same thing. I made no claim that I mentioned anything to you 100 times, but paraphrasing is a lost art I have mentioned, over 100 times in these forums(several in this very thread) that 'I don't have people I follow. I have people I sometimes agree with',,,(and no one that I ALWAYS agree or ALWAYS disagree with) I don't have an agenda,,well except to call question to those who would try to diminish what people believe or accomplish by distracting with whatever little negative tidbit they can dig up everyone has their shortfalls, AND their stengths some wish to harp on the mistakes in Sharptons past as if he has done no good, and I am providing balance by continuing to point out amongst those handful of negative examples,,, dozens of the AWESOME things he has done alongside Im just that person,,,,,while others harp on whats wrong to the exclusion of being able to even ACKNOWLEDGE good,,, I jump in to do it for them,,, you are welcome ![]() |

Yep, minorities are still dealing with the results of Democrat-driven racist policies of the 20th Century. and the republican policies of the 21st century that lead those democrats to the other side,, Republican policies like equal opportunity, a level playing field, helping those who can't help themselves, defending the Bill of Rights, fiscal responsibility, strong national defense, judging people according to content of character instead of according to color of skin, energy independence, job creation, growing the pie. Besides Democrats went to the other side for the cookies. ![]() ![]() |

So am I providing balance MS..
My take on him is that he is a tax cheat ,a deadbeat and a ambulance chaser. Balanced. |
|
|

absolutely, people can be complex, and many things at once
even a cheater(of which there are many types) , deadbeat, and/or attorney can make incredible progress for the causes they believe in,, ![]() |

Al Sharpton is no worse a sinner than anyone else. His importance is simply overrated.
