The Al Sharpton "Show"

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Al Sharpton and Lillian Rodriguez Lopez threatens to commit civil disobedience to fight the Arizona immigration bill SB 1070

Aren’t these “no hate zone” and “peace loving” left wingers great? According to the New York Post, the “Reverend” Al Sharpton and Lillian Rodriguez Lopez from the Hispanic Federation is threatening to commit civil disobedience over the passage of SB 1070 in Arizona. They will challenge Arizona’s new immigration bill in court and on the streets.

Sharpton is joining Lillian Rodriguez Lopez from the Hispanic Federation to announce a legal challenge to the bill. They say activists are also prepared to commit civil disobedience to fight the Arizona immigration bill.

Arizona Gov. Jan Brewer signed the bill Friday. It requires police to question people about their immigration status — including asking for identification — if they suspect someone is in the country illegally.
The law will take effect in late July or early August.

First, proper syntax requires a plural verb in the first sentence.
That's piddling.

Do you see a contradiction between Sharton and Rodriguez being civilly disobedient and being non-violent and peace-loving?

Is there a contradiction between criticizing a law they see as unjust and unconstitutional and rejecting hateful behavior and speech?
