Al Sharpton shames Memphis police officers who beat Tyre Nichols

Delivering the eulogy at the funeral of Tyre Nichols on Feb. 1, 2023, the Rev. Al Sharpton called out the five Black officers charged in Nichols’s death, saying, "there's nothing more insulting and offensive to those of us that fight to open doors, that you walk through those doors, and act like the folks we had to fight to get you through them doors."

[@nitinbhakta4787]

The barbaric nature of this heinous crime is utterly disturbing to watch. The senseless brutal beating of Tyre Nichols that lead to his death is beyond incomprehensible, reckless, disgusting, and most of all inhumane. The five x-officers, possessing criminal and gang mentality, who savagely beat the victim to a pulp, deserve more than life in prison. These monsters knew no bounds, and these additional "accessories" or "accomplices" are as evil as these five thugs who were charged with murder. It is appalling, terrifying, and sickening that we have so many bullies hiding behind badges in law enforcement agencies across the nation. I can't begin to imagine the pain and suffering his family is enduring. My deepest condolences go to Tyre's family and friends as they struggle to cope with their loss. May the Nichols family seek full justice. Rest in Peace, Tyre Nichols.

@@shelleysanchez5523 racist? This pos used to work with the mafia and hurt many of his own people, wouldn't doubt he has a couple bodies on his guilt. I've never met a black conservative that I didnt like and admire, but every black Democrat I've met is by far the most racist. I judge on content of character, they judge on skin color and political affiliation. So how about you, you believe theres institutional racism? I believe abortion is an institution and has targeted black women for decades now. When you look at the data you see that black women are aborting at a 3to1 ratio, that theres been 25 million black babies aborted since just 1975. 25 million! I'm sure Margaret Sanger is proud of the Democrats, but not all the way because theres no sterilization happening. So I see a concerted effort by an institution to keep a race population low and I'm very upset about it. I'm upset that they cant see it, that they cant see how their families have been destroyed by incentivizing black women with assistance programs...as long as a man isn't in the house. Six generations of that has resulted in 70% of black children without fathers in the home. So does it make me a racist to be upset at 25 million black babies dead, the black nuclear family destroyed, and 7 out of ten black children without fathers in the home? There should be daily protests by BLM in front of every abortion clinic in the country.
