MAyor Hyslop lied in his statements to the press. It was not an all white meeting and the mayor was nor surrounded.

Look at this very carefully and do not read into. The statement by David Collins was: "turned away at the door, while his fellow candidates for re-election, all white, were meeting inside without him.". The statement is clear and really not debatable. There was a candidate of color at the meeting from what I have been told. David Collins printed what amounts to a lie. It is clear that the intent was to draw readers, incite outrage and angst in the community. The statement was for the purpose of creating and furthering greater racial discord. Now the source of the statement is the only piece that we do not know. It is simple to conclude that the source was none other than Wade A. Hyslop, since he was the one that went to the Day. So we have a reverend and pastor of a local house of god who has lied to the press for the purpose of creating racial outrage within the community all for the purpose to further his political career. How much more wrong can anything get. The good reverend Hyslop has lied to the community. The United States Department of Justice Civil Rights department needs to investigate Wade Hyslop and the Day for their roles in this action to provoke racial unrest in New London. It cannot get any worse than an African American pastor nurturing racial discord in his own community through lies and deceit. And yet he has the gall to come out against someone else in the community.
