Rowe offers views on Reid, Sharpton

Dear Fellow Patriots,

We saw Al Sharpton recently debating his view on the Harry Reid racial slur debacle. In observing his defense from an unbiased view, it is clear that double standards are OK with Mr. Sharpton and that if you are a liberal Democrat you can get away with racial remarks but if you are a Republican, you cannot.

Formerly, we didn’t care much for Mr. Sharpton and his crusade for racial equality, but as for lately we are beginning to feel sorrow for him. Unfortunately, if Mr. Sharpton would study the constitution he would learn there are no provisions in it that say you cannot verbally offend someone.

We furthermore suggest that if Mr. Sharpton would make an honest effort to study American history and embrace the principles of the U.S. Constitution his fight would be over and he could retire in peace to a content and satisfying lifestyle if that were what he chose to do.

We do, however, understand what an agitator is and what inciting divisiveness does. It is all a part of the liberal intent to keep cultures divided among themselves so they cannot unite and create a greater voting power.

Peace and equality in America is a choice now, not a problem. Mr. Sharpton is a master of perpetrating social sensitivity using racism as his main tool.

Until people begin to realize this and quit advocating his skullduggery we will remain divided and weaker as a nation. We are indeed weaker as a people if we allow someone like that to keep us divided.
