N.C. Lawmaker Poses INSANELY RACIST Question To Black Colleague | Roland Martin

In North Carolina, a Republican lawmaker in the North Carolina statehouse apologizes after interrupting and questioning whether one of his Black Democratic colleagues was admitted to Harvard due to his race.

It happened during a house debate Wednesday. Representative Abraham Jones was interrupted by Jeff McNeely.

Later, McNeely said:
"I respect Representative Jones. I think he's a great legislator. I think he's a great man. What I tried to ask or say did not come out right. That happens a lot, and I apologize."

North Carolina State Representative, Abe Jones, joins me from Raleigh.
