I disagree. I think the are both very predatory and opportunistic. Particularly Sharpton who really has no redeeming qualities and who's best days where 40 years ago.
They aren't in the Detroit for example trying to prevent a murder a day in the black community because their is literally nothing in it for them. When they can go to a case like this one that's getting national and global press and cry "racism", the payoff is much greater. Otherwise, how are they going to benefit by going to black communities and saying "stay with your wife, raise your children, emphasize education and values". Not as salable as "nothing is your fault".
