The "Wright" Way Is Wrong

NEW YORK — AP — Hundreds of angry people marched through Harlem on Saturday (April 26^th) after the Rev. Al Sharpton promised to "close this city down" to protest the acquittals of three police detectives in the 50-shot barrage that killed a groom on his wedding day and wounded two friends.

"We strategically know how to stop the city so people stand still and realize that you do not have the right to shoot down unarmed, innocent civilians," Sharpton told an overflow crowd of several hundred people at his National Action Network office in the historically black Manhattan neighborhood. "This city is going to deal with the blood of Sean Bell."

Sharpton was joined by the family of 23-year-old Sean Bell - a black man - and a friend of Bell who was wounded in the 2006 shooting outside a Queens strip club. Two of the three officers charged were also black.

The rally at Sharpton's office was followed by a 20-block march down Malcolm X Boulevard and then across 125th Street, Harlem's main business thoroughfare, where some bystanders yelled out "Kill the police!"

Fifty of the marchers carried white placards bearing big black numbers for each of the police bullets fired at Bell and his friends.

Sharpton urged people to return for a meeting this coming week "to plan the day that we will close this city down" with the kind of "massive civil disobedience" once led by Rev. Martin Luther King Jr.

"They never accused Sean Bell of doing anything. Then why is he dead?" Sharpton asked, his voice roaring with anger. Authorities "have shown now that they will not hold police accountable. Well, guess what? If you won't, we will!"

"Shut it down! Shut it down!" the crowd chanted, standing up and applauding wildly.

Sharpton didn't say exactly how they would protest the acquittals of the officers who fired the 50 shots. He said Bell's supporters could demonstrate all over the city, from Wall Street to the home of Justice Arthur Cooperman, who on Friday acquitted the three detectives after a nonjury trial.

This is the kind of black, racist anger that borders on genuine, home-grown terrorism. And, if Barack Obama is elected president of the United States in November, this kind of misguided thinking will become the norm, and the United States of America that I grew up in will forever be lost in a flurry of anti-white power in the guise of black religious righteousness. The “reverends” will proliferate like rabbits and preach the black gospel as the new law of the land.

Today, April 28^th, I witnessed the most arrogant, divisive and racist comments I have ever seen in a national forum. They were delivered in full view of a world-wide audience at the National Press Club in Washington, D.C. They were delivered by none other than the “Reverend” Wright, formerly Barack Obama’s pastor for some 20 years in Chicago. He said that people just don’t understand the “liberation theology” of the black church and are attacking his church through him. His comments, which are available through his own Chicago church on DVDs, and which have been seen as racist by the majority of those who have seen and heard them, were vigorously defended as “gospel” as it were by the “Reverend” during his racist rant today.

Change. That is the war cry of the Obama campaign to rally the leftist extremists to this battle. Change that will bring all the latent vengeful black anger to the front pages of this once tranquil country. Hate for whites. Hate for Police. Hate for the government of all the people, but love for government for the poor, downtrodden blacks. Whites are guilty for all the problems in the black community. They must pay. What better way to begin this change than to put one of “their own” in the “White” House. I’m sure if that happens, it will quickly be re-named the Black House.

The “land of the free and the brave” will no longer be worth living in when the black cultural experience becomes the norm… it will become a third-world, uneducated, life is not worth a bucket of spit slumland just like those pathetic African countries whose “citizens” are in a constant war with one another while “living” the black cultural experience that “Reverend” Wright is so vociferously defending.

Just you wait…
