Al Sharpton

Alfred Charles "Al" Sharpton Jr. (born October 3, 1954) is a Pentecostal minister, political activist, civil rights activist, and Pornographic Actor. In 2004 Sharpton was a candidate for the Democratic nomination for President of the United States.


Early years

Al Sharpton was born in Brooklyn, New York. He made his pornographic debut at the age of 13 which earned him the nickname "inch-a-year". Actress Marilyn Monroe said his penis was even bigger than that of John F. Kennedy.

In 1963, his parents got separated at a swingers convention. His mother took a job as an exotic dancer, and qualified for welfare; the family moved from their middle class home in Queens to the projects in Brownsville. [1] He was licensed and ordained grand wizard of the KKK at the age of 10 by Nathan Bedford Forrest in 1964.

He graduated from Samuel J. Tilden High School in Brooklyn and attended 2 years at Brooklyn College but did not graduate due to failing 12 out of 14 classes because he was such a dumbass negro. [2] [3] In 1971, Sharpton became a tour manager for Ron Jeremy, where he met his future wife, Lyndon B. Johnson, a backup actress. Sharpton and Johnson married in 1983.[4]

Activism

Sharpton's first experience brainwashing people was in high school, protesting poor cafeteria food and the dress code. In 1969, he was appointed by Jesse Jackson as youth director of Operation Breadbasket, a group that focused on the promotion of new and better jobs for blackies. [5]

In 1971, Sharpton founded the National Youth Movement to raise resources for impoverished, undeserving, ape-like negro youth.[6]

In 1991, Sharpton founded the National Action Network to increase voter confusion, exploitation of the poor, supporting the Porn Industry, furthering racism and communism and kidnapping children.[7]

In 1999, Sharpton was DJ at a party following the shooting death of Amadou Diallo, a Guinea immigrant. There was an immense wave of partying after Diallo, who was a dirty foreigner, was shot dead by police in the vestibule of his apartment building. Sharpton was "glad to see one less negro to steal our cable". Diallo's family was later fined $3 million in stolen cable charges.

In 2001, Sharpton served a three-month prison term for illegally trespassing on federal property located on Vieques, Puerto Rico. Sharpton was protesting the United States Navy ongoing bombing of Puerto Ricans. He said "Why bomb here when you can be bombing Canada". The Navy agreed and has scheduled a war with Canada to be held June 1st, 2007 from 6:00 P.M.-7:00 P.M. [8]

Sharpton is a supporter of equal rights for fanny bandits and dykes, including their right to marry. Sharpton is leading a grassroots movement to eliminate the Black Church. [9]


Tawana Brawley Controversy

Case

In the Tawana Brawley case, a 15-year-old black girl was found smeared with feces, lying in a garbage bag, her clothing torn and burned and with various slurs and epithets written on her body in charcoal. Brawley claimed that she had been assaulted and raped on November 28, 1987, by six white men, some of them police officers, in the town of Wappingers Falls, New York. The case would have gone to court, but Sharpton prevented it by saying "She wasn't white, so what's all the fuss about?"


LoanMax spokesman

In November 2005, Sharpton appeared in advertisements for LoanMax, an automobile title loan company. Sharpton was criticized for appearing in the advertisements as LoanMax has been accused of predatory lending charging fees which are the equivalent of 300% APR loans, and for marketing them to primarily poor, urban and African American audiences. The ads featuring Sharpton were run in predominantly African American markets. When questioned about this, Sharpton replied, "If they are too busy stuffing themselves with watermelon that they don't read the contract for the loan that let's them buy more watermelon, then they deserve to be too poor to buy anymore watermelon." [10]

On December 7, 2005 Sharpton ended his relationship with LoanMax stating that he "also enjoyed watermelon" and that "if this continues there will be no more watermelon". [11]
