Al Sharpton's Daughter Suing NYC For $5 Million Because She Sprained Her Ankle, Gets Caught Hiking Up A Mountain After Posting On Instagram

Daily Mail – The eldest daughter of civil rights activist Al Sharpton has launched a bid to sue the city of New York for $5 million after she fell in the street and sprained her ankle. Dominique Sharpton, 29, said she was ‘severely injured, bruised and wounded’ when she stumbled over uneven pavement at the corner of Broome Street and Broadway downtown last year.  According to the lawsuit obtained by The New York Post, Sharpton now wants millions of tax payer money to compensate her for the fall which occurred on October 2, 2014. Sharpton, the membership director for her dad’s National Action Network claims she ‘still suffers and will continue to suffer for some time physical pain and bodily injuries.’ The suit was filed against the city departments of Transportation and Environmental Protection. It is classified as a defective roadway claim as she fell in a crosswalk. The city received 774 such claims in the 2014 fiscal year alone. She is also claiming the sprained ankle left her in ‘permanent physical pain.’  Furthermore she states that it left her with ‘internal and external injuries to the whole body, lower and upper limbs, the full extent of which are unknown, permanent pain and mental anguish.’ Sharpton wants damages for the ‘loss of quality of life, future pain and suffering, future medical bills, [and] future diminution of income,’ according to court papers. She was seen hobbling around in a walking boot in the weeks following the fall. She is also active on social media and regularly posts pictures and comments about herself including one about her injury on Instagram: ‘I sprained my ankle real bad lol.’ However, by December, she attended National Action Network’s Justice for All march in Washington, DC, and was able to walk freely during a New Year’s Eve vacation to Miami Beach. There are also pictures of her on social-media in high heels and fancy dresses and one showing her climbing a ladder to decorate a Christmas tree. 

Listen you know me. I’m the biggest proponent of snaking your way through life. Life is too short to care about honor and pride and all that shit. Just get as rich as you can as fast as you can no matter what and enjoy life before you’re dead.

But this. This is too much for even me. First of all its not even a real enough injury. A sprained ankle because your ass is too fat to walk doesnt count. I used to pray I’d get hit by a cab on my morning commutes, just bad enough for a major but not life threatening injury. Every time I was on an escalator I crossed my fingers that it would stop suddenly and I’d fall down the flight. If I saw a custodian mopping floors I’d walk a little faster hoping to peel out, cartoon style, and break a bone or something. Being able to sue the city or a building or something with deep pockets is a dream come true. But a sprained ankle? Get lost. Internal and external injuries to the upper and lower body? Mental and emotional anguish? Bitch your fat ass tripped over the curb. Lose some weight and stop being so clumsy.

And really its not even about the actual injury, its the commitment to the scam. If you wanna go down this road, I aint gonna judge. I hate New York City more than anyone, I dont care if you steal their money. But its an insult to the Snake Game to get caught taking pictures on a ladder decorating your tree. Posting pictures after you climbed to the top of a goddam mountain. If you’re gonna do this, you gotta Costanza it. Fully commit. Drive out to the Hamptons. Ride in the rascal scooter. You gotta ride this lie to the very end of the line if you’re trying to weasel your way into $5 million. Get out of my face with this half ass effort to swindle New York City.
