Al Sharpton on Saturday vowed to lead protests against Madison Square Garden unless New York Knicks coach Isiah Thomas apologizes for a remark that suggested he holds whites and blacks to different standards when it comes to using a derogatory term for women.
Now, while what Thomas said and believes is deplorable, it is evidence of the double standard seen for years. Sadly, it also shows how some African-American men feel about women of their own race.
No woman (unless she is a mean, nasty human being) should ever be referred to as a bitch by any man, especially in general terms. I don't walk around calling guys dogs or pigs (but I love men).
It will be interesting to see if Sharpton backs up his words with deeds. I'm sure a bad jogging suit and hairstyle will be involved if a protest does happen.

I can't stand that guy (Sharpton). If Big Al were a TV show, he'd have jumped the shark on premiere night.
I've always hated him just for pretending to be a minister. He's a charlatan.
Dang - h e double toothpicks may freeze over as well.
Not only is Sharpton a charlatan, he is a hypocrite of the first order.

Poor cat probably thought it was Thanksgiving or something. You took the feast away from it. Lucky squirrel.
Nope, just deer, fox, possum, coon, pigs, skwerls(of course), snakes, lizards, birds, cats(skeet), skunk, and one tired old Pekinese.
