The Rev. Al Sharpton blasted a report that Ferguson, Mo. Officer Darren Wilson told investigators he pulled the trigger in self-defense when he fatally shot unarmed teen Michael Brown.
“Darren Wilson said he was in fear of his life,” Sharpton said Saturday. “The only gun there was Darren Wilson’s.”
The New York Times reported Friday that Wilson told federal officials the 18-year-old shoved him into his SUV and grabbed for his gun on Aug. 9.
Sharpton didn’t buy it.
“You are asking me to believe that a young man that was shot and knew he didn’t have a gun ran back at you, in toward a gun that already shot him?” he asked at his National Action Network headquarters.
Sharpton also drew parallels between the Brown case and the death of Eric Garner, the Staten Island man who died last July after cops placed him in a chokehold. He blamed officials for trying to influence public opinion on the cases. Evidence in both cases is being presented to grand juries to determine whether criminal charges should be filed.
“It is imperative, from Ferguson to Staten Island, that we let them know that we are not going to allow anything but a fair and just hearing of the evidence,” Sharpton said, surrounded by Garner’s widow, Esaw Snipes, and mother, Gwen Carr.“All this leaking and playing games with the public is not going to work,” he added.
Garner’s relatives are planning to join Sharpton in Ferguson for a four-day rally starting Oct. 31.

Sharpton has a vested interest in stoking lies in order to further his shakedown. No surprises here.
Sharpton is literally half the size of the picture of him w/ Tawana Brawley.
Chickelit, we need a new unit to measure idiotic nitwitedness!
So we can calibrate the nation...
hmmm... inwtdn?
If you are interested in the possible extremes of idiocy, you might want to check out the reaming our favorite raving black racist is inflicting on the hostess over at TOP! He's denouncing her as a vicious racist on his blog.
Talk about biting the hand that feeds you. That hostess and her panty waist husband have done everything they can to help him. No good deed goes unpunished!
No wonder that black bastard's life is alway shit.
Thanks for the update, ST. I'll pass on going there though to see for myself.
