Racism is racism

With all his efforts to "free blacks", Sharpton has put himself in the same league as the KKK, Skinheads, the NoI, Westboro Baptist Church, Neo-Nazis, Islamic Terrorists and any other person or group that spews hate from their face holes.
He is nothing more than a thug/terrorist with a silver tounge, espousing hate and separatism veiled behind his self proclaimed title of Reverend........
I will not deny that people judge others by external appearance, and that there is still some 'black specific racism' in America. I also believe it is wrong.
BUT, all I see Sharpton (and Jackson for that matter, here after known as sharkson) doing is widening and deepeing the casm. He speaks of blacks walking tall with pride. But will not accept whites unless they are on their knees. If he truely cares about equallity and unity, then he would condemn ALL hate speech reguardles of origin, condemn ALL sexist speech reguardless of origin. But the evidence I see is that his rhetoric is simply a means to his end.... $$$$!!

"If I speak in the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal. If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have a faith that can move mountains, but have not love, I am nothing. If I give all I possess to the poor and surrender my body to the flames, but have not love, I gain nothing.
Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.

Love never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues, they will be stilled; where there is knowledge, it will pass away. For we know in part and we prophesy in part, but when perfection comes, the imperfect disappears. When I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I put childish ways behind me. Now we see but a poor reflection as in a mirror; then we shall see face to face. Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I am fully known.

And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love" 1 Corinthians 13

Seems to me that a "reverend" would have run accross this in The Bible.
