The perps (at least the two identified so far) are black.

The victim was white.

The racial identity of the perps was glaringly identified by the news sources when they were referred to as “Teens” an insulting racial remark.

Gee!What happened I thought that people were required to have a permit to buy a firearm in Connecticut as well as a permit to purchase the ammunition?

I thought that Governor Malloy’s vaunted gun laws were supposed to stop crimes of that type.

I wouldn’t be surprised if there have been more murders with handguns since that law went into effect then there were prior to its implementation.

You say it’s a video, so that’s different, but the media often uses stock pictures of generic white teens for stories about black “teens” (criminals).

Bridgeport was once a beautiful, peaceful city. The Dems ruined it, possibly forever.

Enfield is a nice town except for the Thompsonville area. Blacks are shooting whites, but is the MSM talking about this? If it was a white shooting a black... Jesse and Al would be there protesting and blacks would be rioting.
