Why is Sharpton angry at the narcotics police?
In the news, Al Sharpton is calling for Congressional involvement in the case where narcotics police opened fire on Kathryn Johnston in self defense after she opened fire on them with a pistol, wounding three of the officers.
Why is Sharpton on the woman’s side, she shot at the officers… Should I go re-read the news? It doesn’t make much sense to me.
Addition: No, they weren’t. At least, I don’t think they were. I’ve read the news report at several different sites. She was a relative of the person they were after, who was a teenager who in one site was reported as "going for his gun," when he heard them coming in.
yes it was the wrong house and they ask an informant that told them about another house to lie and say it was her house . I’m sorry but you got the information wrong i don’t care if it was a black or white person it still wasn’t right at all and some is dead ..the niece bought her a gun because of the neighborhood she was living in and she thought they were intruders and we all need to remember she was and old women. a lot of times the police do get the wrong address of a person.. that is why they should be more cautious about their information and who it is coming from . this was around the same time they shot 50 times and killed Sean bell for no reason a day before his wedding. but AL Sharpton as well as myself and others are tired of the police shooting Innocent people and harassing them for no reason and until it happened to me i thought maybe it is what some of us are doing at times but nope sometimes it is your ethnicity and like others i am tired of it ..that’s why he is calling for Congressional Involvement.. This can be any of us or our family members no matter what race or background we are this needs to stop.This situation is very unfortunate for her family and the officers

Was Kathryn Johnston black?
That there could be your answer and all you need to know about the "Reverend" Sharpton and why he would defend anyone, regardless of their guilt or innocence.

The police were at the wrong house. I think they shot the women 28 times.
