Who cares if the bottle was $5, $500 or $5000. The media is trying its best, as usual, to make this cop look bad. They will not succeed. The bottle and the dinner will never come up in the trial. The defendants (cops) will not testify and the only witnesses will be the thugs in the car, who by the way all have extensive arrest and criminal histories—the defense will rip them to shreds.

Being an asshole is better than being ignorant.

Yep, you're still an asshole.

#35: "Paying $500 for a bottle of wine is still excessive and extravagant. boy are you an asshole." And you're an idiot. Paying $500 for a glass of orange juice would be extravagant. However, wine prices have long ranged from $5 to more than $100,000. Thus your statement that "paying $500 for wine is excessive" is just plain stupid. I don't mind being an asshole to dipshits who make idiotic blanket statements.

Let's see SP: touring, er i mean protesting down 5th avenue and 125th street to specifically protest "white" establishments... hmmm... two things: 1. counter productive. and racist. he also does nothong to help the black community. has he condemned any of the recent black shootings in union square that have involved young black men? did he condemn the undercover operation on staten island of the two slain undercover cops? is he out protesting lifestyles that are clear deterrants to the black community like: violent crime, drugs.... i think i have answered enough... if you deny any of this it's clear of two things: you're trolling or your just an ignorant f uck. also, he has yet to apologize or pay Pagones for the tawana brawley lie he concocted back in the late 80's. Sharpton is a media whore with one goal: self respect and dollar signs.

booyah!

#12: "$500 for a bottle of wine is overboard and excessive" Paying $500 for certain bottles of wine would be considered a bargain. Paying $500 for that boxed White Zin that you purchased from the supermarket would indeed be excessive. Moron.

If you caught Countdown with Keith Olbermann tonight, he named Al Sharpton the Worse Person in the World for today. Why, you may ask? Sharpton said several times that the 5 NYPD officers should be shot. Check out the video from MSNBC! It reveals a lot about Sharpton.

what do you mean by "ramming"? you mean, he put the car in reverse, then drive, then reverse, then drive, then reverse, then drive, then reverse, then drive, then reverse, then drive, then reverse, then drive, then reverse, then drive. the thousand years is over.

This is nuts. All men involved have been arrested for weapons related charges at some point. Not saying thats enough to warrant what happened that night, but if Bell was drunk and ramming his car at me, and I had a gun, I would definitely open fire. It has nothing to do with race.

"All the cops should be shot". Now we know what the Rev. Charlatan was really thinking ... One can see how that was edited out of most if not all of the wire service coverage ... and a lot of the television coverage later. What a joke. Now in a $2000 suit.

Amen, SP. And seriously, it seems like the only people keeping Al Sharpton relevant nowadays are white people that are obsessed with hating him-I never hear black people talking about him, inside or outside the city. If they do it's as a novelty, but not with the hatred and fixation that some of the posters on here demonstrate. Seriously people, get lives.

I'm so glad to see Sean Bell's fiancé is "standing by her man", although he was out whoring around a few hours before he was about to consummate their marriage. Do they sell condoms at Club Kalua?

SP

Mon, 19 Mar 2007 17:31:50 -0500

Please explain exactly the mechanism by which Al Sharpton is responsible for making people, or keeping people, "poor and downtrodden" and preventing them from coming up and succeeding? You are so full of shit, it's laughable.

and, $500 for a bottle of wine is overboard and excessive, like the 50 shots he fired. Says who? Just because you don't want to spend $500 on a bottle of wine doesn't mean other people can't. And, besides the point, it's completely unrelated to the case. Maybe he'll spend a grand on a suit before his trial. HOLY SHIT! GUILTY!!!!!!

*Oh, why is Sharton involved in this* He's highly involved in this situation. Just becase he's not mentioned in this particular article/thread doesn't mean his ignorance shouldn't be noted.

Mon, 19 Mar 2007 13:41:51 -0500

so, that means no. There were never any shooting incidents since the adoption of semi autos by the NYPD where there were a reload done. How was it where the supervisor with the most senority of the group did not fire his weapon? Oh, why is Sharton involved in this? There's no mention of Sharton in the original post. Don't worry, you Sharpton haters will get your due when there's a post on the reaction to the DA's indictments.

Sharpton is good at one thing: By keeping the lower-income-bracket of blacks and hispanics down trodden, he makes it near impossible for them to come up and succeed. By keeping them down, repressed and angry he succeeds his only mission—dollar signs!

that was in reference to post number 4 by tom. "People in this city spend more then that on shoes, stop letting our idiotic newspapers make a story out of it" so, it was on topic. and, $500 for a bottle of wine is overboard and excessive, like the 50 shots he fired. Were there ever a shooting incident where a cop needed to reload his mag?

I just saw the media coverage on television and the so called Rev. Sharpton just stated that "all the cops should be shot". Talk about a freudian slip. I don't know about you but they need to get a change of venue when a "reverend" is calling for this level of violence.

I don't spend over $4k on shoes? I don't know anyone who does. There are lots and I meant LOTS of poor people in this City. Many living on less than the first year NYPD salary. I too, blame the media on sucking on the NYPD's Teat .

I think that he did it so the lawyers for the cops who are being lynched by Al Sharpton can get a change of venue so they can get a less unfair trial.
