Reverend Al Sharpton Release Statements after Killing of NYPD Cops



Reverend Al Sharpton, has also released a statement on behalf of Eric Garner's family in light of the reports that claim the shooting was an act of revenge for Garner's death:



"I have spoken to the Garner family and we are outraged by the early reports of the police killed in Brooklyn today, Any use of the names of Eric Garner and Michael Brown, in connection with any violence or killing of police, is reprehensible and against the pursuit of justice in both cases.

We have stressed at every rally and march that anyone engaged in any violence is an enemy to the pursuit of justice for Eric Garner and Michael Brown. We have been criticized at National Action Network for not allowing rhetoric or chanting of violence and would abruptly denounce it at all of our gatherings. 

The Garner family and I have always stressed that we do not believe that all police are bad, in fact we have stressed that most police are not bad.

We plan to hold a press conference in the morning to express our outrage and our condolences to the families and the police department. Details to follow."

  1. People don't value human life anymore. This will definitely get the air tensed. The U.S government should seek justice and let go of actions that have racial undertones
