Mr. Al Sharpton

     I was listening to you on TV tonight.  Listening to your intense spitefulness at the 8/28 March held in Washington, D.C. and your tone on the interviews.  The march comments were insightful to your followers and the interview remarks were only excuses.  The whole idea of the other rally entrenching on your day is so ridiculous!  It's no more "just your day" to celebrate for any reason, than my birthday is only my day!  Millions of people were born on my birthday.  It's also their day and they celebrate their way.  We all share the same day.
     What are the rest of us suppose to do on your day?  Stay in bed, keep out of sight or stop living?!  Because it happens to be your day!  No, it doesn't work like that.  It's called Freedom!  Freedom to walk around.  Freedom to go to D.C. even on 8-28!  You don't have the exclusive rights for any activities for that day or that location!
     You breed hatred.  You are always looking for what is wrong, mainly with the white folks.  You never look for what is right or good.  You constantly stir the pot to keep people upset about any and all issues!  Why don't you preach making good choices for a change!
     You don't own the market on struggles or hardships.  Struggles land on every one's doorstep!  God gave us all life and free will.  The rest is up to us.  We can make the choice to work hard or hardly work.  The choice to buy cigarettes, beer, drugs or health insurance for our families.  It's all up to us.  To have it all right now, but can't pay for it and lose it, or to work hard and get a little at a time.  Choices are all around each and everyday.  Not everyone will choose right, but guess what not everyone will choose wrong!  You will answer for your choices and I will answer for mine!
     Think about this, if all of us just got along, wow, what would you have to do?!  Don't you make a living from all the dissension between the races?  It seems to me you wouldn't have a job if everything was copacetic, now would you?
     I hate to break this to you but, life is not equal or fair.  We all don't have the same amount of chicken soup in our cabinet nor the same amount of shoes in our closet.  Due to choices!!  I might not like shoes and you might not like chicken soup.  We are all individuals with different likes and dislikes.
     All black people are not poor and all white people are not rich.  How much money did you make last year?  How much money did you claim on income taxes?  What kind of car do you drive?  How many cans of soup do you have in your cabinet? 
     Stop making excuses for people.  The sun rises on all of us and the sun goes down each day.  It's your choice on how you want to live it.  People don't have to live in a mansion to be happy. You don't have to make $500,000 a year to be successful.  There is always going to be somebody who has more money or processions than the next person.  But, it's how you act and treat people and how you live your life with Honor, Honesty and hard work that counts.  God didn't say our life would be easy.  He just gave us the beginning.  The middle and the ending is up to us.  We all have heartache, struggles, disease and death.
     We all have Choices!!!!!!!!
