At a Tarrant, Alabama city council meeting on Monday, a white councilman used a racial slur about Black people, causing noticeable shock among meeting attendees and upsetting one councilwoman so much that she had to step away from the meeting.
According to a report Tuesday in the state-focused website Bama Politics, councilman Tommy Bryant, 76, stood up and loudly asked: “Do we have a house n***** in here?” He says this about 1 hour and 41 minute mark of the Facebook video above.
Bryant could be heard making the outburst during an exchange with Tarrant’s first Black mayor, 41-year-old Wayman Newton, over some of Bryant’s wife’s racially-provocative comments on Facebook.
The video that the City of Tarrant posted to its Facebook page backs up this account.
Bryant’s shocking statement, which drew gasps from others present at the meeting, came right after someone in the audience accused Bryant’s wife of also using the slur on Facebook, according to the Bama Politics report.
It is his right, it’s called the 1st. amendment.
The woman needs to adhere to the old rhyme of “Sticks and Stone” and get over it. Same as the rest of the Liberals.
He was only quoting what the black mare had said.
And that black woman that got up crying. That was as fake as day! How in the freaking world is she upset when her people say it constantly and the word is in every damn one of their songs. Please take those alligator tears somewhere else.
Until blacks quit using the N word themselves there will be no sympathy from me!
Interesting how this tabloid was quick to point out the mans race and Party.
We all know for a fact that the other race and Party use it in their vocabulary, daily!
Down on Church street I here the “N” word all the time filtering into my window from the “Brothers” using it on each other.
