Reaction To The George Zimmerman Trial Verdict
July 14, 2013
“I think it’s time for Americans to rise up and take to the streets to bring a consciousness to this country that racism divides and destroys,” said the Rev. Ronald E. Braxton, referring to the verdict in the George Zimmerman trial, at the Metropolitan African Methodist Episcopal Church in Washington.

The local news (Topeka, KS) just did a story on the ‘peaceful’ protest here...with a strong emphasis on ‘peaceful’. They cut to the story....a bunch of morons shouting ‘no justice, no peace’.
Too bad nobody at the station has the wisdom to understand the irony.
Yes, and make sure you are wearing your gang colors.
“The most racist people I have ever encountered are African Americans”
The wannabe racist Trayvon profiled what he thought to be a white out of shape man he thought he could beat down and attacked George Zimmerman. We know this because George just defended himself according to a jury.
Oh yeah, right. Riot. That’ll show true justice. Morons.
“that racism divides and destroys”
Yes, racism divides and destroys and I wish the blacks would stop doing it.
Amen to that...
I mean, “ Afro Methodist”??? What the hell is that?
I have to come to realize that a very large percent of blacks teach their kids that the difference between right and wrong is wether or not you get caught.
And I know for a fact they teach their kids from an early age that ALL whites are racist, they are born that way and can’t help,it.
It’s OK to be friends and work and play with, but understand that whitey is always looking down on you.
This revelation was put to me from the blacks in a college class I took a while back.
Yeah, that’ll convince me, Rev
You’re the biggest bunch of crybaby hypocrites ever. No wonder you are destined for a life at the bottom of the socio-economic barrel. Your values and politics and culture are bankrupt.
It isn’t called “racism” when blacks murder whites or other blacks, only when they assault non-blacks and get killed for it.
da bruddahs be too lazy to get a good riot on. Be rather 420 and chill....
And the rev wants to incite a race war to show us just how that works.
I hate to agree because it is very sad. I was raised to not to look at color but since my teen years I have seen nothing but black racism against whites. From the riots in LA, to OJ to being looked at as suspect when drawing blood in a black persons house. I don’t care any more, I know I am judging by content of Character not color of the skin.
Short for "African Methodist Episcopal" (AME) or "African Methodist Episcopal Zion" (AME Zion).
Ethnic denominations modelled on the United Methodist Church, began when black congregants were refused Communion at a Methodist Church in Philadelphia in the late 1700's.
What exactly is an A.M.E. church, anyway? It seems odd, like having an Australian Baptist Catholic church....?
Interesting, never heard of that.
Sounds like this group has gone down the Social Justice path, too bad.
It sounds like it means he wants to bring religion to uppity White folks through that long practiced African procedure called necklacing.
I think it’s time for idiots to shut up.
Rev. Ronald E. Braxton BLOW IT OUT YOUR A$$!
Sounds like incitement.
These people believe lies fed to them by media. If their view was factual then their anger would be justified. The facts do not support them, their anger is not justified. They need to be told so.
