"America’s premier malevolent demagogue" Thomas Lifson
Thomas Lifson "For sheer entertainment value, Al Sharpton’s invocation of slavery in discussing NFL players who average $1.9 Million a year is worth while noting. But it also confirms his stature as America’s premier malevolent demagogue. (You can savor the buffoonery in a video over at Weaselzippers(sp), as I am unable to embed it here.)" . . .

"Sharpton is unlikely ever to top Crown Heights, where he instigated a pogrom, or Freddy’s Fashion Mart, where his target of opprobrium was firebombed, killing 8 in bloodiness. But the older and wealthier and more established (MSNBC host) Sharpton works on a different angle now.
"Underneath this cynical exploitation of white guilt, Sharpton is hoping to inflame conflict.
"Fans already angry at the kneeling can only derisively laugh at the millionaires, and not a few of them will decide they are done with accepting any responsibility at all for something they have nothing to do with.
"The NFL owners already are in retreat on the standing policy, alienating their fans even more. They are going to continue to underplay the damage they are doing to their business.
"Face it: Sharpton is trolling us. Fans and owners alike. Driving conflict. There are a lot of people who want to see Americans angry at each other. That's something on which Vladimir Putin and Alinskyites agree."
So I'm to pay these guys and Sharpton reparations?
Yo, Whiny Football Players: Follow This NHL Bros Lead v. Al Sharpton’s – Truly AWESOME!
. . . "While the NFL players are engaged in their Kaepernick-style slacktivism, one NHL superstar is actually addressing the problem.
"Anyone who has followed PK Subban’s career will not be surprised by this.
"PK is the guy who pledged $10Million to a children’s hospital in the city he was playing in. And even though he’s since been traded to another city — country, actually — he’s honored his word.
"This guy puts his money where his mouth is. And that’s why, when he got traded to an American Franchise (traded from Montreal), it came as no surprise that he would keep looking for ways to make his city better.
"It’s why he was given Canada’s highest civilian honor — the Order Of Canada." . .
