The Sean Bell Verdict and Al Sharpton’s Culture of Grievance
I can’t stand how everyone against this ruling writes as if Sean took all 50 shots and that is just not true. There were “50 SHOTS FIRED” and some were misses, some hit his friends and some hit Sean. The officers were set free because his friends stories didn’t match. When that happens, you know one of them is lieing if not both. It’s not a racial situation. Having a criminal record is like having a bad credit score. It shows where your priorities are. When someone is acting like a fool in public, talking about beating people up, saying, “get my gun” and trying to run over an officer… bad things are going to happen. Those actions are not a good time, nor are they acceptible. It’s as acceptible as walking into an airport and talking about the bomb in your bag. I’ve had to give that lecture to my daughters boyfriend several times and this is a good example of what I’ve been preaching. Officers put their lives on the line every day to keep everyone safe. They are condemned when they accomplish something and the are condemned if they fail. God bless them all!
