With the movie “Selma” seemingly shut out from Oscar Nominations -except best picture- the Reverend Al Sharpton has an opportunity to exploit his most recent antagonism.
Many people might remember the controversy over the Sony Entertainment hacked and leaked emails which showed some tongue-in-cheek snark toward President Obama.
The presidential advisor on race issues, Al Sharpton, compared the Sony Executives to formerly labeled racist LA Clippers owner, Donald Sterling; then demanded a meeting with the Hollywood executives to lay down his expectations for improvement.  They acquiesced:

[December 18th, 2014] (Reuters) – Civil rights activist Reverend Al Sharpton on Thursday did not call for Co-Chairman of Sony Pictures Entertainment Amy Pascal to step down over racially insensitive emails, despite expectations that he might seek her resignation.

The private emails, leaked through a massive hacking attack on Sony Corp, included joking remarks related to U.S. President Barack Obama and his taste in movies. (more…)

A Brooklyn man terrorized two NYPD cops when he pulled alongside their squad car in Harlem and pointed what appeared to be a weapon at them to show his friends how easy it would be to “shoot a police officer,” authorities said.
Unique Johnson, 32, was driving a Chevy TrailBlazer at West 125th Street and Seventh Avenue at 9 p.m. Tuesday when he suspiciously slowed down and pulled up along the squad car’s right side, police said.
When the 26-year-old officer at the wheel peered over his shoulder, he witnessed Johnson with his arms extended, pointing what looked like a gun, police said.
“I absolutely thought we were dead,” one of the cops said, according to NYPD officials.

HatTip Weaselzippers:  The article has been deleted (Hi Rand!) but you can still see it via Google cache.  Obviously someone at the Ron Paul institute realized how looney this appears – but not before it was widely read and shared.

(Via Weekly Standard) An institute named for the father of possible presidential candidate Rand Paul has published a piece saying the Charlie Hebdo massacre, like 9/11, was a false flag operation. The claim comes in piece titled, “Charlie Hebdo Shootings: False Flag?,” put online today at the Ron Paul Institute:

“The Charlie Hebdo affair has many of the characteristics of a false flag operation. The attack on the cartoonists’ office was a disciplined professional attack of the kind associated with highly trained special forces; yet the suspects who were later corralled and killed seemed bumbling and unprofessional. It is like two different sets of people,” reads the first paragraph of the piece: (more…)

[…]  ..”There are times for self-restraint, but in the immediate wake of the most threatening assault on journalism in living memory, you would have served the cause of free expression best by engaging in it”.  (source)

Prepare for the liberal outrage, screams of racism, and onslaught from the liberal media against law enforcement.
BLOOMINGTON, Minn. (KMSP) –  UPDATE — Charges: Officers infiltrated Black Lives Matter meeting, were spit on by MOA protesters

18-year-old Antreal Jones, 17-year-old Jerome Moore and 16-year-old Antwain Dukes. Dukes and Jones were out on bond for a March 2014 armed robbery. Both suspects have previously been indicted on this charge and were awaiting trial when they killed 69-year-old Carolyn Temple.

Jerome Moore’s Mom (Sharonda Burns):

“My son is known for house burglary. That’s all. He’s been going to the Juvenile Center for his house burglary,” Sharonda Burns told us. “For one, my son is not going to shoot no gun. Now, I’m not saying he won’t rob nobody, but I know he won’t shoot no gun. He was not there the time the lady got attacked. I know for a fact where he was. He was not involved in that murder.”

[…]  January 07, 2015: At 6:45 pm Carolyn Temple was robbed and shot by two suspects on Euclid Drive. Witnesses reported hearing one gunshot then say they saw two suspects flee the scene in a Maroon 4 door vehicle. (more…)

The STL County Police are going to release more pictures of the looters every Tuesday. Finally, and interestingly, amid explaining this approach from Saint Louis law enforcement comes the following:

“He said the coming images will include some from Aug. 10, the day after white Ferguson police Officer Darren Wilson shot and killed a black teen, Michael Brown, in a controversial confrontation”…

Because many of us have wondered how difficult it would be to catch this guy:

CLAYTON • Calls from the public identified five looting suspects and provided 15 leads after St. Louis County police released surveillance photos last week from violent protests in the Ferguson area Nov. 24.
So the department released a new batch of pictures Tuesday and plans to publicize more on successive Tuesdays. They may be from protest-related crimes on various dates. (more…)
