If there’s anyone keeping racism alive in America it’s Al Sharpton. Not only is the “reverend” a vociferous race-baiter, he has an aversion to facts and he’s not afraid to show it.

Case in point: Recently, Sharpton appeared on Fox News with Megyn Kelly who was asking his thoughts on the Justice Department’s decision that Officer Darren Wilson was justified in shooting Michael Brown in Ferguson because he feared for his life. But with Reverend Al, the rhetoric is strong and he doesn’t let little things like actual facts get in the way of his opportunity to ignore them and proceed with his racially charged version of the truth.

He doesn’t care that the DoJ — excuse me, “DoG,” as he continued to refer to it — satisfied the course of American law and found a white cop justified in the shooting of a black criminal. Sharpton just goes on believing what he wants to believe.

“I’m an opinion guy,” he says. And that opinion is contrary to facts. He believes Michael Brown was shot in cold blood, despite what the DoJ and the grand jury testimony proves. And when asked if he would like the chance to apologize for spreading lies which helped ramp up the violent aftermath in Ferguson, he refused.

Nor will there be an apology for how disrespectful he was to Kelly throughout this interview. After telling her to “calm down,” Sharpton turned aggressive and grabbed her microphone and shoved it back in her face! That’s probably a clue of how he feels about women, wouldn’t you think?

See for yourself:

Perhaps the good reverend was just teeming with excitement as he was halfway through his 25th annual National Action Network convention, which essentially is how he peddles his race-baiting wares. Which is ironic because at that same convention, Sharpton gave some very hypocritical advice to a couple of invited white guests.

Remember that oh, so hilarious sketch involving New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio cracking jokes about colored people? Well, de Blasio was invited to speak at the convention along with city Comptroller Scott Stinger, a man who had complained that corporate leaders are both “too male” and “too pale.” So since the two of them were in the same room together, Sharpton gave the men a bit of advice:

“Just don’t even talk about race for a while.”

That’s actually a fantastic idea, Al! But when the race talk stops, so do the checks, right? So, it will be business as usual. But what do you expect from the Left? It’s always “do as I say, not as I do” with them.
