The Rev. Al Sharpton used his eulogy for slain 18-year-old Michael Brown to rip the conduct of local cops and to call for America to “deal with” the kind of policing that has plagued the Ferguson, Mo., community in the weeks since Brown’s death.
"America, it’s time to deal with policing,” Sharpton said Monday at funeral services for Brown at Friendly Temple Missionary Baptist Church, addressing a crowd that included politicians, civil rights activists and celebrities, as well as many members of the Brown family. “We are not the haters, we’re the healers."
Sharpton has been a vocal activist against police brutality within the African-American community, and has been in Ferguson during the weeks following Brown’s death as protests broke out and sometimes turned violent. Sharpton was also among the thousands of protesters who marched against police brutality in Staten Island on Saturday.

He needs to take his ass to Chicago and preach to his own people that are killing each other and helpless children everyday
If the cops were doing their jobs right he would have been arrested for impersonating a human being!!!!
And yes guns are banned there looks like it helps
The "funeral" was a freak show.
Sharpton and his buddy Jackson are nothing short of race baiting activists stirring every race induced event to epic proportions for their own benefit.
How the he&& that niche market ever became profitable in this country is anybody's guess!
What a circus.
Here's what you do: Pick a city that hates the cops - any city.
Tell that city that we're going to do a social experiment. What we'll do is pull ALL the police from the streets for two days - just TWO days.
If, at the end of those two days, the citizens of that city think that they are better off, then the police will pull out forever.
No shootings. No killings. Peace.
Let's see how that works....
He doesnt look so good theses days.....his own mortality will be our blessing.
who pays that POS? donations? WHAT??
Apparently...where he goes..so goes the president. Ferguson has taught me that little has changed in this country throughout the years. The same people crying the same racist sh*t.
Martin Luther King would turn over in his grave to see what Jackson & Sharpton have done to disgrace their people, and disgrace themselves as Americans they should not have the right to even live in this country.
