Sharpton told DNAinfo that his comments were taken out of context.
"I was not referring to any one group, but to all of us, including myself, when I said we all need to stop acting like gangbangers who protect their turfs from others," Sharpton said. "We cannot act like this toward each other, even if we do disagree. I want to meet with any activists willing to work with me on this problem of gun violence."
Sharpton plans to commute to Chicago from his New York home once a week, and he could return to the city Thursday. He said he might bring Combs or other famous friends from time to time.
Tio Hardiman, former director of CeaseFire Illinois and now a gubernatorial candidate, said he understands where Sharpton was coming from when he made the "gangbanging" comments Sunday.
"Al Sharpton is correct when he made the comment in regards to all local activists need to stop gangbanging amongst themselves and worrying about who will take credit for reducing violence in Chicago," Hardiman said.
"Al Sharpton could be the very person to help unify the many different leaders in Chicago. The young men on the streets know that local activists are divided, and some people wonder why the young men do not listen to some of the local activists," Hardiman added. "Al Sharpton stated that he wanted to illuminate the leaders and organizations that are currently working to reduce violence. [But] he never stated that he had all of the answers or resources."
Making good on his July plans to move to Chicago and help address the city's gun violence problem, Rev. Al Sharpton reportedly leased a West Side apartment Sunday.
The colorful activist has even found a roommate: Martin Luther King III.
Sharpton said along with King, he wants to spotlight the people and the efforts fighting the gun violence epidemic in Chicago.
"It's to really encourage groups that are already are doing work," Sharpton told ABC Chicago. "We're not coming with a new program, we're coming to put a spotlight and to support those that are doing it."
Sharpton also blasted the "egos" of some local anti-violence activists, telling the Sun-Times it's time for them to “stop acting like gangbangers themselves and stop fighting over turfs."
Sharpton and King aren't saying which West Side neighborhood they've picked to live, though Illinois Congressman Danny Davis is hopeful "the whole West Side" will benefit.
"We've got some issues over here and we need all hands on deck and we welcome even someone who doesn't reside here," the Rev. Ira Acree told ABC. Acree and Marshall
Hatch, both West Side ministers, are the ones who invited Sharpton to Chicago.
Al Sharpton is actually going to South Chicago to try to stem gun violence. You just don't read about it in your conservative blogs because it goes against what your masters want you to think...

You are a laughable clown as usual.
I live pretty damn close to Chicago and have a few interests there, so i may know what's going on. Where are the big press conferences and the out crying to media?
You want me to say it, I will. There is one group of people primarily causing all of the shootings? Can we guess what group?
I'm waiting for the day the govt put the military in an american city like Chicago to stop the violence.......its obviously out of control & I know the govt is itching to find out how well the military dissolves the situation.
We will see military involvement in american cities in the future, question is when it will happen?

I watch the Chicago news and didnt see it. No one really cares as long as they keep it in their own 'hoods
You may wanna retract your 23 dead statement, clown. I NEVER said that...get your posters straight. I said it would be hard to believe that no Americans died on the flight.....DING>>>DING<<<right again[="" quote]
Sorry, loser boy. I had no embarrassing comments. Why not run along and quit making a fool of yourself. Don't you a sweater to knit or a fish to catch...maybe a run to the liquor store
Are the Police catching them now?If caught with an illegal firearm or a firearm that has not been registered, make it a Federal offense and an automatic 25 years with no possibility of parole and enforce the motherfucker.
