Well Jamal, who remade it in his own image 7 years ago?
Don’t blame companies to smart to build in feral areas on the economy Barry intentionally tanked anyway.

Were the rioters too lazy to burn the stores at the mall?

“Pastor” Jamal Bryant sounds like he wants to take over for “Rev” Al Sharpton, same mindset.

Holy Cow. Sadly, he doesn’t get how ridiculous this statment makes him and the black community look.
What is taught in his church is really not taught in scripture now is it?
