AL SHARPTON IS A WASTE OF LIFE

YOUR PEOPLE ARE LOW LIFE LOW LEVELED SCUM

Further- these men were NOT just driving away from a crime-ridden strip club and the cops just suddenly, for no reason, started shooting. The men were fired upon by undercover NYPD officers who were driving an unmarked car. When the black officer identified himself as a police officer, the driver gunned it and tried to run him over! That?s certainly reason to fire on a car if there ever was one! A car, as I said, is a deadly weapon and can easily kill. When you try to run over an officer, you can only exect he will fire on

-Anonymous

The men in the car were black, so this means the cops are racists of course. Except for the fact that the officer who started firing his weapon, which caused the other officers to fire (thinking they themselves were under fire from the car?s occupants) ws HIMSELF black. Maybe he?s a black racist and he hates himself?

My sympathy goes to sean<s family and to his lover.I know how hard it is to lose your lover because i have lost my loved sister three years ago ,its still so painfull and i cant imagine how it is for you to lose him the day of your wedding. Just thankGOD to be there in your life but you deserve this, let GOD judge them

-lylyane pemebele

My sympathy goes out to the widow of Sean and his two precious children. May the lord bless you with his wisdom, his love and his guidance. Please stay away from Al Sharpton. After what he did with the Tawana Brawley incident, it was proved that he is a lying, malicious, evil and very corrupt individual. Don't tarnish Sean's beloved memory with the likes of being associated with Mr. Sharpton. I pray that justice will be served in this case. Look to the elders in your church for support. God blessyou.

Dear Mrs. Nicole Bell, May the peace of God strengthen you and your family during this time. Weeping may endure for a night BUT JOY will come in the morning. I pray your morning is near. Yes, the judge did the right thing.

- Shuwanda , Long Island, NY

Dear dear Nicole, my tears for you, Sean & his parents are among the many. I pray for you and the grief in your heart that your loving mother and daughters may help to assuage. God bless you.

Hopefully a day of justice will come for Sean and the other two young men who are suffering.

-Joann, NY (a white person)

I was heartbroken when I heard about the murder of Shawn Bell, about his last words and about the policeman who pumped all those bullets into his body. In spite of what their intentions might have been, it is clear from the news media that Shawn was a beautiful person. Blessings.

Dearest Nicole, I was so very sorry to hear of your lose. When you are blessed to find one true love, nothing and no one can ever replace that. Rest assured that God knows the matters of your heart and He will not suffer you to be in pain. The thing to do is to thank God for the time that you did share with Sean and to be grateful for the blessing of your children. Know that his spirit (Sean) will forever be apart of your lovely daughters. I pray for Gods peace in your life and in the life of your entirefamily, who also mou

-Michelle Lopez

Nicole,

I live in Minnesota and when I heard of your story, I couldn't hold back the tears. I pray that God will take care of you and your girls. To see that all your needs are met and to hold you all in his loving arms. You are such a beautiful young lady and so are your little ones. It's just so hard to comprehend what you may be going through, but with God , the support of family, friends and strangers as myself, you will be fine. Stay strong and take care.

My prayers and blessings with you all! MaySean rest in pea

-Carla Rison

Your story saddens me. My heart goes out to the sean's family. Every girl dreams to have a family and marry the man of her dreams and to be so close to making that dream a reality only to have it taken away is just heartbreaking. I am praying that this family is able to grow stronger and receive the justice that they clearly deserve. Ms. Bell, I think that taking his name was a nice gesture and perhaps a step toward moving ahead. Be strong and positive for your children.

-Yolonda

I get butterflies everytime I here your story. It turns my stomach to know that we still have this horrific act against our young black men. My heart goes out to you, your babies, and your family. Grief is a very hard process, and though we may all do itdifferently, it's still painful. I love your faith. It encourages me, and shows me that you fear the Lord for he is all there is. I want to encourage you and let you know I'm your sister, I'm another mother who has lost my child's father violently. Know that "the will of God

-keisha, Baltimore,Md

(cont'd) God wants only our good. If He OVERRULED in every situation we wouldn't have crime, wars, disease or death. He will work all things FOR good to those who love and serve Him and He is available to all who call on His Name. Find the strength you need in Him for He is more than willing to be your Burden Bearer.

To Sean's parents, KEEP FAITH. Especially to Nicole - things happen in life that alter the direction in which we are headed, as in the case with you and your departed fiance. Evidently if he had lived you would have married that day and taken on his name. Unexplainable circumstances caused a mad shift. I can only imagine the 'emotions' that you now have to deal with; I have seen a few of the photos; I'm glad that the judge allowed you to take your fiance's name despite the ugly blow fate played on you and his children. God w

I am praying that you remain strong. Many of us have been through something similar. But you must grieve and forgive at your own pace.

We march and speak out against many violent acts, but it must go much further. We must show our love for our people and our communities to everyone as other races do. Divide and conquer has been the real weapon against us. We must make this a weapon of the past for African Americans. We must return to respecting our sisters and brothers. Standing up for our beliefs andour communities. I

Mrs. Nicole Bell - God would surely want you to have that name. I lost my husband, after 9-1/2 mths. when I was 28 years old (on-the-job accident). Right now, the anger INSIDE of you will help you to overcome many hurdles for you and your children. But don't let it consume you as I did. Hold on to God - I didn't and then someone gave me a copy of "Footprints". You have my deepest sympathy and understanding. May God bless you, your children and his family, because I know he will surely keep you - and you have the best part of

I hope my words will bring you some comfort.

Hello,

I know it is hard right now but in time it will be okay. You will have some good days and some very gloomy ones as well. I just lost the love of my life in Iraq and these times are quite difficult but God gives me grace to handle each day. You will go through different emotions but in the end you will be okay for your children and God will get you through the rest. My heart goes out to you because I know what you are going through.

-Victoria Madison

To Mrs. Bell, Sean's Family, and kids,

Words cant even begin to explain the pain and the heavy burden that has been in my heart for you'll since this tragic "asanation" of your loved one took place. Just know, that God is perfect in everything he does.Hemakes no mistakes. He allowed this to happen for a reason. We dont know why yet, but in due season, it shall come to past. Be strong, hold on, its only a test of you'lls faith!

-Shanetta

Nicole,

You are a strong beautiful woman. The presence of God is all around you. I can't say that I know how you feel because I honestly do not. I can offer you a scripture that helps me when I'm trying to figure something out and can't, Proverbs 3:4-5. I admire your strength, your focus, your love for your husband and your family.

Thanks Nicole,

To Sister Nicole: May God cover you and the seeds of your husband with His love and faithfulness from this day forward. Raise them as your self to be women of character God being your helper.
