President Obama’s Pal Al Sharpton Issues Statement on His Gun Violence Proposal

We know that Rev. Al Sharpton will stand behind the President on just about anything he proposes, but let’s take a look at the gun control proposal before we look at Sharpton’s response to it.

Here, from the Associated Press, is the full list of some of the gun control proposals and actions:

Black Women, did Louisiana woman fake hate crime? This takes us back to the Tawana Brawley Case

Sisters, do you remember back in the day when we could not believe the ex-boyfriend on Tawana Brawley whom allegedly claimed on national television that Tawana confided in him that she did her own hate crime? 

Now, we understand what many people mean when they say, ‘history repeats itself.’  Yes indeed, history is repeating itself alright, simply because many black people over the years…Read full article, here.

Former Lesbian of 30 Yrs Charlene Cothran’s Thoughts on Obama’s Gay Marriage Support

At this time, we feel the following statement about the President’s support for gay marriage is a true and authentic one. Coming from a woman who lived the life as a lesbian for 30 years and helped initiate gay rights, she has been transformed and stands on the truth. At this hour she still stands tall and tells the absolute truth about what she thinks about Obama and his support for the LGBT community and gay marriage.

Video: Rev. Jesse Jackson Calls On Blacks To Wear Hoodies To Polling Places: Will That Save Them From Hell?

Those of us whom are truly righteous and recognize the problems among African Americans can only be solved through Jesus Christ.   These ministers whom are civil rights activists like Rev. Jesse Jackson and Rev. Al Sharpton are not correctly preaching the the gospel, in our opinion, simply because it seems as though neither one of them have learned that racial discrimination will not go away by the clothes we wear or the many rallies we may march, only fully submitting our souls to Jesus Christ. If Rev. Jesse Jackson and Sharpton truly love God, then wouldn’t it make sense for them to conduct rallies all over the nation to preach righteousness?   He calls on blacks to wear hoodies at the polling places, possibly to honor Trayvon Martin, but what he may not realize is this, Trayvon Martin possibly would still be here if the race of black people loved God with all of heart, mind and soul.  If they loved themselves and each other, then Trayvon Martin’s life would not have been used as a wake up call, for African Americans to take heed.   Since the end of the 1960′s and the assassination of Dr. Martin Luther King, many African Americans became more divided, denied God and refused to serve Jesus Christ.  Even after the AIDS epidemic many blacks rebelled against God’s Word, hated themselves and each other.   Therefore, we need to hear Rev. Jesse Jackson speak out for African Americans to accept Jesus Christ…Read full article, here.

Two Missing Florida Cases Get Attention From Producer Tyler Perry

Producer Tyler Perry has been offering quite a bit of philanthropy lately. Just last week he donated to the cause of a pastor who lived on a motel roof top in order to raise money to buy the property. This week, he is joining the mission to find two missing Florida men who both disappeared with similar circumstances.

Early this week, Tyler Perry appeared on MSNBC’s Politics Nation with Al Sharpton to discuss the cases.  The two men are Terrance Deon Williams and Felipe Santos and they both disappeared close to eight years ago just after encountering a Collier County police officer, Cpl. Steven Calkins.

Huff Post Blogger Posts NYPD Spies On Rev. Al Sharpton Protests And Rumors of Being Gay

We are not surprised that the NYPD would spy on Rev. Al Sharpton or any other civil rights leader. Agencies have been doing it for years. They spied on Marcus Garvey and many other leaders and protestors. As long as you have folks who are willing to close the mouths of eople who feel they are called to liberate others, then even those of the same ‘hue’ will join in to destroy them. We are not fans of Rev. Al Sharpton but we can appreciate his work in the past and we recognize that some people love to infiltrate and destroy people’s visions.

Al Sharpton Honors Tyler Perry with Award and Calls His Haters “Proper Negroes”

Excuse me, Mr. Sharpton but not everyone likes Tyler Perry and what he stands for as a pseudo-black role model. Even I had to learn that Tyler Perry is in this for himself and found a way to persuade blacks to play and pay into his work. I know- I was one of them. Read my take at the end.

Read report below:

Al Sharpton honored Tyler Perry at his National Action Network event called Black detractors “proper negroes”. He went on to say:
