Rev. Al Sharpton, president of the National Action Network, voiced his strong opinion against Rep. Peter King, R-N.Y., and his planned congressional hearing this week examining the radicalization of Muslims in America.
Rather than separating one group of religious extremists from others, Sharpton suggests we should go after “all homegrown terrorists,” equating the circumstances of the Ft. Hood shooting carried out by Maj. Nadal Hasan, a demonstrated Muslim extremist, to the Tuscon shooting by Jared Lee Loughner, a killer linked to no religion.

Anybody even wth a very small amount of common sense to stays abreast of what is going on knows only too well the muslims hope to get way with here what they have pulled of in Europe. Guess what, NO WAY! Not in my country, not in our country. We the People will win big against these so called “moderate” muslims who want to bring the law of sharia here. NFW pal. This is the United States of America and We the People will never accept such folly here. Even if Obama and his cockroaches think they can hoodwink America, its over for him and his Obamanites. Al Sharpton is one of the worst people I have seen speak, this guy has some serious mental problems I believe and he needs to sit down with a REAL preacher and bare his soul What a loser and whiner. Will he ever just go away and leave Amerian alone. We do NOT need Al Sharpton, never have.

That would be something to check into indeed, to see if any funding may be going to the side or something similar.
Also to other posters who may ask the same question, when one is a pastor (regardless of the actual title used) you do not necessarily have to have a church itself to function out of; my own ministry is carried out on the streets, and in several houses, apartments and such among individuals and the families of lower incomes, for an example.

Actually, you have a brilliant plan. We have many leftist extremists in this country that are trying to take down our nation on a daily basis.

Posted on March 10, 2011 at 3:27pmSharpton is not the sharpest tool in the shed now is he. His attempts at trying to deflect blame were patently obvious. The reality is that 2000 plus Americans were killed on 9/11, that hundreds of people have been target by islamic pigs from London, Madrid, Delhi and hundreds of others. By whom? Those that have openly declared a jihad against the west.
The fact that a few muslims were killed on 9/11 in the trade centers and on aircraft means squat. These murdering pigs chose a target and whoever was present and killed was a pure coincidence. To say that muslims were killed does not diminish the acts of the perpetrators. That is plain stupid logic.
