If the people protesting the shooting want to be taken seriously, they need to steer clear of Sharpton. Sharpton's involvement taints the protest.
I'd say they are being taken pretty seriously. I personally can't determine Sharpton's motives. But you might want to keep in mind, he is not the one that wrote the headline or the story. But it certainly would appear that he has some members of AD concentrating on his involvement rather than the issue at hand....which is an unarmed dead man with 50 bullet holes.
