Mobilizing Justice for Sean Bell

1. Well, it's about time. I live in Jamaica, Queens and I will make it my BUSINESS to be there!

2. What you are witnessing is "Domestic Terrorism." This is the end of Rev. Sharptonge's career. You can't incite people to riot without getting arrested. Sean Bell has not been denied justice. He must playout the course. What impact would a guilty verdict have had on the morale of the Police Force? I'm not saying the police are right, I'm just saying Sharpton is wrong. Everybody is sick of his crap. It's not helping anybody.

3. It is very curious that the only time Sharpton talks about shutting down something is when the incident is volves Blacks and cops, or whites. Why doesn't he and many of the so called black leaders shut down the city when blacks become blacks become victims of blacks. On average there are 14,000 murders a year in this country. About half of the victims are Black. We only represent 13% of the population yet we make up about 50% of the murder victims. Most of the perpretrators are blacks. I guess it is more important that we deal with a headache rather than a cancer. Wake up Sharpton the threat is not from cops, who for the most part do a good job protectiong us, the threat is from the people within our community. I guess Sharpton and his race mongers cant make money on fighting black on black crime.

they're suppose to do and come up with a Justifiable
solution in this case, all we ask is that this Young Man get whats coming to HIM and that is JUSTICE for
His Family. it is not right, and until they meaning
the Government make this case an example and do whats

7. Donald,

Black on black crime, you call the police, and police on black crime, you call Sharpton. It is the function of government to protect and provide service to the citizens. That's not Sharpton's job. So, when the police kill you wrongfully, Sharpton is the real, like it or not, alternative.

Open your eyes. One of the cops was BLack!

8. Cecil, your're not the only one. I agree with Cecil & Donald. Black on black crime needs to stop. Al, should address the parents of this generation of young black kids. I see it all the time, parents not teaching their kids right from wrong not correcting their kids when they do wrong, making excuses for the kids. This generation have turned wrong into right what do you expect. I am a black mother of two. I thank God, for morales, values and principles, that's how I rasied my son and daughter. I'm proud to say they are productive adults. I'm old school, you must teach them from the start. Make them accountable for their actions before you call on Al. I could go on and on. The bible says there will be days like this. I know you don't have to call Al. Al, will call on you. God bless us all!

9.
I will be there with my husband, my sons ,my aunt my grandmother .Enough is enough.
Side note
@Lame Jane
we could get into how whites for centuries have raped killed and destroyed damn near everything they touch. I already have a theory about whites they are the only race of people who do not come from a tribe. witch leads me to believe they are aliens. The sun that grows vegetation burns them and as we can see from Jane's comment on this thread saying things that had nothing to do with the topic at hand.
If this chick (I would have rather said something else) did any research pertaining to this topic of the NYPD killing innocent people including whites in this city and getting away with it. But like I said everything a white person touches they jack it up. in the future Jane if you don't have anything nice to say nothing at all.

11. THE BELL FAMILY" Keep ON FIGHTING TO THE END THE REST IS UP TO JESUS!!!! God Bless you all, I feel your pain like it was my own son! Keep the Faith and HE WILL DELIVER YOU ALL!!!! May You Rest In Peace Sean Bell. I agree with Sheila. Black people are getting killed by the hands of the people who are supposed to protects us. It's appalling. We need to get pass race and judges need to the right thing and convict these police officers. Al Sharpton do your thing. If we didn't have peopled like you, Martin Luthier King Jr, Rosa Parks, Malcom X etc. Where will black people be? White people and some people of color should be a shame to called this justice. This is wrong and the police officers should be in prison. This is a disgrace the police is shooting ordinary people for nothing. What happen to the Miranda laws?

12. Lets stay focus people, this is not about self, or self thoughts, even though this situation makes you think, this is about prayer for a person and his family and justice for all, which the situation could have been handled in another way, a young man, who is black, who was shot 50 times, 50 times, 50 times,50 times. 50 come on now, 50 times? I am sure he was gone after the first couple of shots, but why 50, that is brutal, that was beyond brutal, that was not human to shoot another man who never shot at those police officers not a once, and they shot him 50 times, that wasn't even a human action, when did humans start putting bullets in mankind unarmed human being 50 times? That was some sadistic,animal behavior. There are really no words I can find right now to say who sitanic those officers are, and their cognative thinking is off balance. That was estreme cruelty it was viciousness at its best.

13. DONALD BROWN U R IGNORANT.. REV.SHARPTON IS ACTUALLY UNITING OUR PEOPLE AND OBVIOUSLY THAT IS A PROBLEM FOR YOU,SO MY ADVISE TO YOU IS STAY OUT OF THE WAY.SEAN BELL DIED BECAUSE ONE POLICE OFFICER SHOT HIM 50 TIMES..IT ONLY TOOK ONE BULLET TO KILL HIM..ANYONE WHO CAN NOT SEE THIS IS A PROBLEM DOES NOT DESERVE TO BE ALIVE... THE FACT THAT THE JUDGE IN THIS CASE DETERMINED NO WRONG DOING IS THE OTHER PROBLEM..THIS TREND OF MURDERING BLACK MEN AND NOT BEING PROSECUTED FOR IT MUST BE STOPPED BY ALL MEANS NECESSARY....REV.SHAPTON SHOULD HAVE THE SUPPORT OF EVERY ABLE NEW YORKER SHOULD BE GLAD TO SUPPORT HIS EFFORTS TO PROTEST THIS INJUSTICE...OUR CHILDRENS FUTURE DEPENDS ON HOW THIS SITUATION IS DEALT WITH....I WISH BLACK PEOPLE IN EVERY STATE WOULD UNITE FOR THIS CAUSE AS IT IS NOT JUST A NEW YORK THING.,,,

14. First things first I think that their should be some one fighting for justice when any one has been denied justice.
Now I wanted to make a comment on Mrs. Jane's topic first of all you have gotten your little small ass percentages and bogus information for some column or what not, in which are the same people who fell to report the correct information just to make their race of people always come out on the top.
For your information on the crimes that you say blacks commit more than whites do, I guess then you would say that when whites commit the same crime your saying blacks commit more than whites are mostly wrote off as pleding INSAINE, MENTALY SICK, DEPRESSION AND WHAT NOT, just to get a lesser sentence. So my question is I guess that killing your children isn't considered as a act of crime (in your book,Jane) but in reallity...which you obviously do not live in...those are crimes and there are not added in to those so called percentages you show. Because of the NAME ON THE SENTENCE GIVEN and you know what makes it even more really sick is that they actually go through high and hell water to find a lawyer to prove their innocents on the fact that they lost their mind for a SECOND and played out something in their mind, killed their 3 to 4 children hainously and thought that they would come back alive in the next hour or so.
Yeah we could say that at the time you were being mentally challanged but your ok now cause you have gotten rid of your problems and that you should be charged to the fullest with COLD BLOOD MURDER of your own children and thats not even adding in to all the rest of the crimes whites committ. Just as in "THE BELL FAMILY'S" case unfair justice, and futher more question... Mrs.Jane your sayin that the justice given in the THE BELL'S case is fair because of all of your percents and what not are stating that what happened should have happened?
Know this lady or what every, think before you speak your mind because not every body thinks twisted.
SO TAKE YOUR PERCENTAGES AND CRAWL YOUR BOGUS BUT BACK UNDER THAT BOGUS ROCK YOU CAME OUT FROM UNDER AND STAY THERE...YOU MIGHT BE SAFE FROM THE SO CALLED VOILENCE AND CRIMES BLACKS COMMITT SO MUCH!
