No way in hell Sharpton comes within 20 miles of a white man murdered by 3 troubled black youths.
Or black on black crime..... This is not a hot news story but a white person murdering a black or latino (racism), a police officer murdering a black or latino (racism, racial profiling, police brutality, etc) You have a HOT story...$$$, publicity for his name, press, $$, etc.
So who makes the call to arrest someone in a situation like this one? The cops on the street or a higher up? Should the cops have looked the other way and let thing ride? My thinking is that they should have let things ride. Selling bootleg cigarettes doesn't seem like a big deal. But maybe they were getting complaints about the guy from the local store owners and felt pressured to to something.

It's a big deal to the city, state, and lawful merchants. No, it's not murder but still a crime. The cop on the street doesn't need permission to make an arrest for a crime committed in his presence or if he has probable cause.
And you are mad about the fact that caucasians don't have an Al Sharpton to represent them.
You are upset that you don't have a representative that gets absolutely nothing done for his people.
Wow???
You and Ryu make it seem like Al Sharpton is doing so many great things for the black community.
C'mon.
Stop kidding yourselves.
You and I both know that his presence means absolutely nothing to the progression of blacks.
Stop trying to use him as a way to justify your point about media bias.
Even Obama, the 1st black president, refuses to get anything done for his hometown of Chicago which is a literal battle zone.
You guys are funny. Same arguments.
I don't. Al is a troll. It's funny how he only appears during a racial event. He is also a pimp..Did you check out that young hottie he has now?? The hair-do is always so fresh n clean.

Exactly. By illegally selling cigarettes he was not paying taxes and you can certainly be arrested for non payment of taxes.
Nobody in their right mind would be happy seeing their family members demise scattered all over the internet.
Just because they aren't happy about it does not mean that his kids will spend their lives being angry about it. Perhaps this will motivate them not to be like their dad, since the path their dad chose quite clearly didn't work out for him. And they have constant reminders on the internet.
