Al Sharpton Race-Baiting Tour Heads to Virginia on October 9
I have received the below announcement to “community leaders” from Al Sharpton. In it, Sharpton announces that his race-baiting tour is coming to the Commonwealth of Virginia. He plans on teaching people how to “combat” new “restrictive” voting requirements such as Virginia voter ID, which was approved by his allies in Eric Holder’s Justice Department. One wonders how he plans to “combat” the law.
Sharpton probably won’t mention his role in the deaths of Angelina Marrero, Cynthia Martinez, Luz Ramos, Mayra Rentas, Olga Garcia, Garnette Ramautar and Kareem Brunner. His allies and friends (like Eric Holder) don’t like to think about the time Sharpton’s race-baiting preceded the fiery murder of these people at Freddie’s Fashion Mart. Fashion Mart?
Yes, for those of you who don’t know and don’t click the link, this says it all:
The Sharpton-led protests began in August and came to a head on the morning of Friday, December 8th when Roland James Smith, Jr., who had been part of the Sharpton’s protests, walked into Freddy’s Fashion Mart, pulled out a gun, ordered all the black customers to leave, spilled paint thinner on several bins of clothing and set them on fire.
Sharpton is a reprehensible race baiter who should never escape his past unless he publicly atones. That Eric Holder associates with Sharpton’s sort tells us even more than that racialist quote Holder carries around in his wallet.
So Sharpton will arrive in Richmond on October 9. Danny Finnegan at the Richmond Times will dispatch a reporter to cover Sharpton’s appearance and not a whiff of his crazy race inciting past will appear on the pages of the paper on October 10. The local media won’t make mention of Sharpton’s long history of racial demagoguery and will treat him like a respected figure instead of how they would rightfully treat the public appearance of a Kleagle.
Here is the announcement for the big event:
October 4, 2012
Dear Community Leaders:
It’s hard to comprehend that in 2012 we must fight for the right to vote in this country. But as you are well aware, that is precisely the action that is needed as voter suppression efforts work to threaten the very notion of democracy as we know it. When about 5 million Americans may be disenfranchised from the polls this November according to the Brennan Center for Justice, we understand that complacency is not an option. As Founder and President of National Action Network (NAN), I would like to invite you to participate in our 2012 voter engagement efforts on October 9, 2012 in conjunction with Dr. Anthony Chandler at Cedar Street Baptist Church, 2301 Cedar St. Richmond, VA.
Continuing through Election Day, NAN’s goal is to educate and empower the electorate on how to combat new restrictive voter requirements and ultimately protect voter rights. Our voter engagement work is led by Pastor Michael A. Walrond, Jr. the head of NAN’s Ministers Division in conjunction with our partner, Education for a Better America (EBA). We will tour many of the states and cities impacted by these draconian laws and align ourselves with the local community. Our day-long program will begin with a luncheon attended by local elected officials, civil rights leaders, college presidents, youth activists and other community leaders. Teaming up with Education for a Better America, a 501(c)(3) partner, we will host a workshop during the afternoon. The evening will feature a rally at a local church where I will deliver the keynote address. A private meeting with vital community leaders will focus on creating an infrastructure in each city to continue voter education and protection.
We would like to invite you to our Richmond event which will take place at Cedar Street Baptist Church. The luncheon begins at 11 am and we invite you or one of your staff to attend the workshops from 2 pm -4 pm. At 7 pm we will host a community worship service. Additionally, we would like your support identifying community groups and leaders that you think we should invite to our other events, including our worship service. Time is of the essence in preparing communities for the upcoming election. Our concern is simple: each and every eligible American should be allowed to participate in the process regardless of party affiliation or economic standing.
If you have any questions regarding any of the events, please contact our Executive Assistant to the Director of the Minister’s Division of National Action Network, Malaika Thomas, at 917-805-9823 or by email at mthomas@nationalactionnetwork.net If you or a representative from your office plans to attend, kindly take a moment to RSVP at dcbureau@nationalactionnetwork.net
We hope to partner with you on this very critical effort.
Sincerely,
Rev. Al Sharpton
President & Founder
“No Justice, No Peace” is on the logo of his organization. Given Sharpton’s history, we have some idea what the absence of peace looks like.
The Race Card is the most rapid-fire, all purpose, over used and abused, ad hominem and vapid weapon of smear, mass deception, diversion and greed ever conceived by man. It is a weapon under which the most feeble minds are severely crouched and can be played with the greatest of ease by even the most reason and integrity challenged, and in fact, was designed especially for use by them. It is void of justice. It is void of liberty. It needs no footing in rationality. It is, in plain and clear fact, similar to a lynching. At times it is the last refuge of hate filled scoundrels and at other times the first as they attempt to murder intellect, justice and freedom of speech. It has no expiration date. It doesn’t even appear to have a half life. There are those who theorize that it may continue to exist indefinitely in some form even after time itself has come to an end.
Exactamundo.
However, it’s the ‘method of attack’ of ALL fictional ‘equal rights’ types.
Rather than encourage self upward mobility through education, seeking employment that’s more conducive to promotional possibilities, embrace a can-do attitude, ad infinitum.
11+ years into the 21st Century, in the greatest land for success upon one’s endeavors and THIS, this ‘man’ is still able to pimp his vitriol is both sad and disturbing.
IF I found a dollar every time I saw Sharpton in action, whipping up the crowds, I would be richer than Richie Rich.
Living most of my life in the NYC area was interesting, to say the least. But being exposed to Sharpton’s traveling circus was not one of the nicer experiences.
Every few months – when he was in need of ‘showing his bones’ – he would stage ‘this rally or that rally’ to stir up the Blacks into victim status. It was always obvious that he was a con artist, but no matter, white lefties went right along with their ‘brothers’.
If there was any justice Sharpton would still be in jail for the actual human wreckage he incited, and the ensuing deaths. In fact, others go to jail for a hell of a lot less.
To be sure, it is not lost on this blogger that many of my fellow Jews, leftists to their core, admire the bastard. Alas, the rest of us have to witness the mental illness of leftism, as it props up con artists like Sharpton & gang.
And, if not for the most racialist AG in U.S. history, Sharpton’s rabble rousing would be seen for what it is – incitement to a race war -http://adinakutnicki.com/2012/07/30/the-racialist-potus-seeks-transformation-via-raced-based-classroom-edicts-say-it-aint-so-commentary-by-adina-kutnicki/
Moreover, the Radical-in-Chief’s recently release video exposes him to be every bit the racial rabble rouser, two step con man like Sharpton. In fact, they are interchangeable, yet half the country hearts them both!!

Al Sharpton, a very greedy man making a living off hate, much as the mythical vampire lives off blood.
entrepreneur of hate
FAT OR SKINNY , AL SHARPTON IS STILL A RACIST AND ANTI SEMITE POS !! IT IS AMAZING THAT HE JUST DOES’NT TUMBLE OVER , BEING TOP HEAVY WITH THAT HUGE PIGGISH HEAD ; AX AL WHO DID THE SURGERY . DON’T FORGET TO AX , OK !
The media legitimized this clown by giving him face time on TV.
O’reilly started it when he had segments where Sharpton spread his
brand of manure.
Rudy Giuliani did it right. When he was elected mayor and Sharpton
wanted to see him, Giuliani refused. That’s the only way to handle
this race baiter.
Your juxtaposition of Sharpton and a Kleagle is apt. They’re two sides of the same coin, and apparently soulmates as well. As are O’bobo and Holder. Unfortunately, all still have a substantial following, except for, maybe, the Kleagle. That’s significant. Racism has shifted from white to black, but remains now, as ever, a sign and symptom of primitive minds.
It took 40 years for AffAc to have this unintended consequence. Let’s hope it will not take another 40 years to be rid of it. Just the same, we must start now.
Get rid of all identity preference laws. We’ll never quite be rid of the primitive mentalities, but we can stop “empowering” them, to use this egregious but so newly fashionable term. And, the “better people” will tend to ignore such types as Sharpton and their events, as they always have.
That’s the best we can do, so let’s do it. Nov. 6th, vote out O’bobo the racist. That will also clear out Holder, the racist, and diminish the “luminosity” of the likes of Sharpton, all racists. It’s time. They’ve had their say.
In a normal country, at a normal time, Al Sharpton would have been hanged by the neck until dead, lo’ these many years. Freddie’s and Tawana Brawley should have done the trick.
Instead, he draws government paychecks from all the “community centers” he uses for his rabble rousing, anti-white hate mongering, as a “director” paid for by you and me. He has somehow become rich, by pretending to be poor. Why is the IRS so uninterested in a man who has no assets, yet jets around the world at a moment’s notice? Can you do that? Not if you’re white.
He’s not stupid.
White voters are.
Go ahead. Vote for Ostupidhead. You frikkin’ idiots.
I have some new chains for my truck..
Now, we all despise the guy for his race-baiting hucksterism, but that was uncalled for.
I saw Sharpton after the debates. I turned into MSNBC to watch the gnashing and thrashing.
Sharpton’s appearance was shocking. He looks sick, seriously ill.
before he does and post announcements like his, but with the goods on him instead.
What’s fascinating and simultaneously tragic about Sharpton and his ilk painting Voter I.D. (suffice to say this is Sharpton and company’s LATEST pet project) as being ‘racist’ is Sharpton is painting hard working other than Anglo (obviously) types as too economically strapped to get a $10 driver’s license.
If that doesn’t come off as condescending or using a veeerrry broad paint stroke for many people in being economically void I don’t know what is.
Sharpton COULD and SHOULD say, ‘People, rather than feeling sorry for yourselves and expecting Big Daddy government to take care of/ cover for you/us your/ our entire life, look into your financial situation and remedy the careless spending you may be incurring and fix it. If in a go-nowhere job, keep that job and search for a better, upward mobility possibility others. Improve your present-day education via trade school or CC/JC courses. Not only for you, your children’s safety and well-being but for the better of this nation’.
Though providing fictional, tired fiction & vitriol, ‘You deserve better and the government ‘owes’ you as such..’ dribble has proven to be Sharpton’s modus operandi.
What a slug..

Here is the “draconian law”:
•Virginia voter registration card
•Valid Virginia driver’s license
•Military ID
•Any Federal, Virginia state or local government-issued ID
•Employer issued photo ID card
•Concealed handgun permit
•Valid student ID issued by any institution of higher education located in the Commonwealth of Virginia
•Current utility bill, bank statement, government check or paycheck indicating the name and address of the voter
•Social Security card (*please see below as the social security card does not satisfy special federal ID requirements)
A voter who does not bring an acceptable ID to the polls will be offered a provisional ballot.
Don’t have one of these forms of ID?
All Virginia active registered voters will be mailed a new Virginia voter registration card prior to the November 2012 General Election. If you are not registered but are eligible for registration, please register today and a voter registration card will be mailed to you by your local general registrar’s office after your application has been processed.
Provisional Ballot Process for Voters Who Arrive Without Identification
All active registered voters in Virginia will be mailed a new voter identification card prior to the November 2012 General Election. Voters without any other ID should bring this form of ID with them to the polls as this will satisfy the voter ID requirements for Virginia and federal law.
A voter who arrives at the polling place without an acceptable form of identification will be given the opportunity to vote a provisional ballot. After completing the provisional ballot, the individual voting will be given written instructions from the election officials on how to submit a copy of his/her identification so that his/her vote can be counted.
Other than someone living in a cave in the mountains, I’m struggling to conjure up a hypothetical person who would be “disenfranchised” by this.
Al Sharpton being employed by a major network is just one example of MSM being partisan.
But media bias might start working to Mitt’s advantage.
Read “The Check Has Bounced” at:
http://john-moloney.blogspot.com/
and, like his announcement, plain and simple, post flyers, ads, etc. listing all his bad stuff. that’ll fix him.
Sharpton’s an intellectual moron. MSNBC has fouled its brand forever.
toxic Sharpton has used Virginia as his dumping ground before, having stashed Tawana Brawley in Virginia Beach in his glory days, when he was keeping her under wraps. I do not think Virginians will appreciate his return engagement.
For all the money he and his supporters are spending on this rally, they could be finding anyone who can’t afford an I.D. card and helping them get one. But then again, how many people over the age of 18 don’t have a legally valid I.D. of some sort?
If someone is really too poor or infirm to get an I.D. and has no friends to help them (how do they plan to get to the polls?), they should call their local voter registration office and ask for help. I’m sure something would be done to enable a citizen their right to vote. But of course these objections are fake problems about non-existent people—
Non-existent people with fake problems are who Sharpton defends best.
That the LSM has legitimized a race baiting & riot inciting piece of crap like Sharpton tells me all I need to know about the integrity of the legacy media.
Is the Internet full of biased BS? Of course it is. But at least I can pick and choose what I put credence in.
Al Sharplaton
I find it sad that the African American Community continues to embrace the “victim” statusor tolerates those portrayls.
One parent families
No father figure
High school drop out rate
Government dependency
Frustration over the low quality of life
It’s not your fault; your victims
The culture is certainly prevelent in all races however they don’t have a poverty pimp like Jesie and Al to promote it
I mean besides our President and the majority of Democrats…
wonder if he flies there, and has to show an ID to get on the plane??????????????
All this is brazen distraction activity.
BLACK votes are being drowned in a flood of illegal votes cast by illegal aliens, felons, government union thugs impersonating voting for the dead, double voters, etc. Black voters lose out politically.
30 years ago, black Americans were a crucial Democratic constituency. Since then, both parties have tacitly cooperated to make Hispanics the largest minority group. Black children are victimized by substandard education “provided” by slovenly, arrogant teachers’ union members.
Barry Obama himself was instrumental in killing a voucher scheme for poor families in DC. The scheme had allowed some poor students to attend the tony Sidwell Friends School attended by Malia and Sasha Obama.
As Obama’s cover story comes down, the curtain goes up on the USAO’s cover-up of J.J., Jr.’s role in the Blago story
http://illinoispaytoplay.com/2012/10/05/as-obamas-cover-story-comes-down-the-curtain-goes-up-on-the-usaos-cover-up-of-j-j-jr-s-role-in-the-blago-story/
resist, we much! I believe people should have to identify themselves to vote–whats the issue?
Back in the 60s the black leaders made a big deal out of getting black voters registered and to the polls. Why isn’t that happening now with IDs. It’s really not that hard. I think every newspaper in the country should publish a list of exactly what is needed to get a state drivers lic. or ID card and a voter registration card.
If they want to make a point, gather together by the bus loads and report to the polls on election day with their IDs and voter registration cards in their hands. I can’t think of a better way to say this is me, I’m here and my vote counts!
Because I suspect that really isn’t their point. The only “disenfranchised” voters their concerned about are not citizens, in the ground, or never existed.
Why are we continuously told that black people are to stupid to get an ID card.
Back in the days of the Korean grocery story boycott. when a black woman said the Korean grocery owner was rude to her, Sharpton and DOugherty could only muster a few protesters until the media showed up. All of a sudden everyone in Flatbush. Brooklyn showed up with the thought they’d be on TV. I walked by that store almost every day and didn’t see many protesters until the TV cameras arrived. If the media would stop showing these race baiters, they’d go away as they’re no more than attention seekers.
Al Sharpton is a race-baiting, rabble-rousing scoundrel. He encouraged blacks to take the law into their own hands and get the guy who killed Trayvon Martin. It is disgusting that MSNBC gives this conman a forum.
We are far too polite about Sharpton. Until his visits are greeted with mass protests, and the organizations associating with him are treated to boycotts, we aren’t responding appropriately to someone who is the only racist present with the sort of status, organizational heft, and influence the Klan last held 50 years ago.
The media will never stop legitimizing him, so simply ignoring him is not enough, though I would otherwise agree with Bklyn.
Let’s not forget Newt Gingrich crawling into bed with him in 2009. Also, is Sharpton himself allowed to vote, given his refusal to pay taxes and court-ordered damages in the Brawley fallout?
Isn’t it illegal to propagate voter fraud.
If I announce to the world that i have initiated a plan to kill someone and fully intend to carry it out, and, indeed have started on that plan, am I not liable to arrest, r do I actually have to kill them first? Isn’t conspiracy to commit murder the same as murder, in some places, successfully carried out or not?
Please tell me again why this man still draws breath outside prison walls?
Oh! I forgot! He’s a race hustler, and black, and therefor some kind of protected species. He should have gotten life for Freddie’s, and years for Tawana Brawley. Instead, he has become “rich”. After all, can YOU just fly away to every rabble rousing adventure you would like? Ever wonder how he csn, since he never has enough money to pay his judgement to Pagones, and never pays any income taxes?
His money comes from YOU, and all the front organizations that YOU PAY FOR. He is a Black Sultan with a big mouth, no brain, and no morals. No life form lower than he is known to exist. If he was white, he’da gone away lo’ these many years, along with many another black “minister” of non-existant churches. Instead, he’s rich, through your kindness and generosity, even though he has absolutely none for you.
“Bonfire of the Vanities” only hints at the levels of corruption in this ungodly world. Wolfe probably thought he was being bold with his assertions. Alas, I’ve lived it, and he wasn’t half as bad as real life. If you haven’t read it, you should. I have personally seen and will bear witness to practically every single assertion he makes. And it’s been going on since the ’60s.
That should scare you all to death.
I’m beginning to think anarchy is the solution.
I’m game.
