'Atrocity ... A sad day in the country.'

yeah, I know, you racist fat-fuk, anti-semitic pos......truth and justice is terribly sad.
"Well, I think that this is an atrocity," said Sharpton. "I think that it is probably one of the worst situations that I've seen. What this jury has done is establish a precedent that when you are young and fit a certain profile, you can be committing no crime, just bringing some Skittles and iced tea home to your brother, and be killed and someone can claim self-defense having been exposed with all kinds of lies, all kinds of inconsistencies. ... Even at trial when he is exposed over and over again as a liar, he is acquitted. This is a sad day in the country. I think that we clearly must move on to the next step in terms of the federal government and in terms of the civil courts. Clearly, we want people to be disciplined, strategic. But this is a slap in the face to those that believe in justice in this country."
FUK YOU SHARPTON!!! TOO BAD THAT GUY WHO CAME OUT OF THE CROWD IN BROOKLYN in 91 didn't succeed. The world would have been a much better place to live in....now we're stuck with your fat racist ass....
Sharpton Is Stabbed at Bensonhurst Protest
By ROBERT D. McFADDEN
Published: January 13, 1991
The Rev. Al Sharpton was stabbed in the chest yesterday as he prepared to lead a protest demonstration through the Bensonhurst section of Brooklyn with the parents of Yusuf K. Hawkins, the black youth slain there by a white mob 17 months ago.
Police officers assigned to monitor the demonstration immediately seized and subdued a suspect, a white Bensonhurst man with a record of assaults who investigators said was drunk.
Mr. Sharpton was taken to Coney Island Hospital, where he was listed in serious but stable condition. A hospital official said his wound was not life threatening.
After the stabbing at 1:30 P.M., a second man who had been holding the assailant's overcoat was taken into custody for questioning, but the police later said he was not a suspect and that the knife-wielder, whose motives were unknown, had apparently acted alone.
The flamboyant 36-year-old civil rights advocate had been subjected to taunts, threats and racial epithets in leading many earlier protest marches in the predominantly white neighborhood, but had not encountered violence there.
