Racial Tensions in Hartford, Connecticut Involving Death of 18 Year-Old Jayshon Bryant

lawlor_outside_court_house009As usual, there are racial tensions because of a not guilty verdict in the case of an ex-cop acquitted of charges of manslaughter. The African Americans who sat in the court room during the entire trial say Robert Lawlor was acquitted because he had an all white jury.  Isn’t this the same old news?  History is repeating itself.  This has happened in America hundreds of times and will continue to occur, the truth hurts, because black people are repeatedly hurting each other, all sorts of ways and never even care.  On the very day of President Barack Obama winning the election, black people remained the same.  There was no unity.  In Atlanta, where some of our reporters were doing a study at the time of the election, there were tension among blacks in the lines of the voting booths.  That told our reporters black people will remain powerless, because they not only dislike themselves, but each other.  Jayshon will not be the last victim of racism, because the majority of African Americans refuse to respect each other and this brings on much hatred from the enemy of the black race.
