Lived in NYC at the time and it created huge racial tensions with the 3 idiots (like that) drumming up hatred every chance they had. When it finally came out that she was lying they ran for the hills and were not men enough to admit they were wrong and apologize.

Sharpton has made a career of creating racial hatred.
