Tawana Brawler happened when I was a little boy in the 80s. Basically, who gives a **** about something that happened that long ago. Life does on on. Perhaps that's why people don't call him out on that. Its just so whatever.
Calling someone for something they did when they did it? Great. Constantly calling someone out 30 years later? LAME, LAME, LAME.
Oh please, the man is a charlatan at best and an instigator at worse.
Was also a child when the Brawley "story" (and it was just that) broke and as one saw through it at once.
Like most AA children Miss. Brawley had strict parents and needed something *good* to get out of missing curfew; so she cooked up her story and got Maddox, Sharpton et al to jump on the bandwagon. Least Miss. Brawley had the decency to change her legal name to get away from the shame of it all.
His bud Johnnie Cochran who defended OJ Simpson paid it for him.
Mr. Cochran was another one. Always out there supposedly *for* the community but however results often varied.
Years ago when an middle aged AA woman that lived in the projects had her apartment stormed by NYPD based on a false tip, she had a heart attack and died from the ordeal. Cochran was right there, right up in there making all sorts of promises to the family about lawsuits against the City and such. In the end he ended settling for a rather small amount and IIRC the woman got a street named after her or some such. Because Cochran also settled with the NYPD and it's officers the family couldn't even turn around and seek justice from them either.

Again, lame, lame, lame. Why should I care about a case that happened 30 years ago?
Why should anyone care?
Judge the man on his present actions, whether they are good or bad.
Don't beat a dead horse until there's nothing left to beat. That's probably why the media doesn't mention whatever Sharpton did 30 or 40 years ago. Who cares?

Cochran is dead. So its like whatever. Nothing he did can be undone, and you can't call out a DEAD man. Its not like he can care or anything.
Lame, lame, lame. You guys should learn that life goes on and to stop obsessing over events that happened decades ago.
