That should assist Trump in taking that battle ground state.

And, my, how many race riots have we had under the PiC now? A dozen or so? Sure am glad that his election brought around a post-racial America. Things were boiling over under Bush. How many race riots occured during his presidency? None, was it?

Is Trump offering to pay the legal costs of anyone stupid enough to believe that he will defend them when they attack his opponents, or more broadly, any opponents of law and order?

Difficulty in understanding simple commands by officials!

Charlotte police warned 43-year-old Keith Lamont Scott again and again to drop his handgun before an officer shot and killed him, the police chief announced Wednesday morning, after riots damaged patrol cars and injured at least 16 officers, one of whom was hit in the face with a rock.

 

Police Chief Kerr Putney said during a news conference that officers were searching for a suspect Tuesday when they saw Scott exit a vehicle with a handgun at an apartment complex on the city's northeast side. "The officers gave loud, clear verbal commands which were also heard by many of the witnesses. They were instructing the subject, once he got out of the vehicle, to drop the weapon... Mr. Scott exited his vehicle armed with a handgun as the officers continued to yell at him to drop it."

 

Putney said Officer Brentley Vinson shot Scott because the man posed a threat. Vinson is black, as was Scott.

 

"It's time to change the narrative, because I can tell you from the facts that the story's a little bit different as to how it's been portrayed so far, especially through social media," Putney said.

 

His comments were an apparent reference to a profanity-laced, hourlong video that a woman claiming to be Scott's daughter posted to Facebook soon after the shooting, saying that her father had an unspecified disability and was unarmed. In it, she appears to be at the shooting scene, which is surrounded by yellow police tape, as she yells at officers.

Doubt Scott was a Trump supporter. Clinton has pretty much locked up the criminal vote.

Since police are never held accountable, the details of whether they were correct or not in this instance is not longer relevant to the insurgents.

You can either try and call a truce and address systemic police abuse of black people, or be prepared for a good deal of bloodshed. I'm sure you guys and trump will go for bloodshed. at least until you find out that some of it will be that of police and innocents cause in the crossfire.

That's not exactly a minor fucking detail, it's a basic tenant of law and order.

Only if that detail somehow contributes to a "just" outcome.

If the outcome (cop walks away unsanctioned) is the outcome in EVERY case, irrespective of evidence, then sooner or later you can expect those subject to police mistreatment to consider all incidents as inflammatory.

I think we're at that point.

Maybe it helps donald get elected, if there are any angry white people left who weren't already voting for him, or maybe it get Hilldog elected because it brings out an otherwise unenthusiastic black vote.

Toss up.

Maybe you should read the WITNESS account, have trouble with instructions?

I don't think that is the case at all. There are several instances currently where cops are about to be sentenced for their actions.

I'm telling you the rioters don't give a shit.

So you ask the witness, and then go tell the rioters if you think it will change anything.

Which is exactly why I don't support these current thugs. They do far more damage to a legitimate cause than the tangerine tornado ever could.

looting a walmart for TV's.....really??? jackasses

The solution to that is that blacks should straighten up. Of course police are going to look at you more carefully when belong to a race commits a disproportionate amount of the crime. Is that fair to the law abiding blacks? Nope. But you are fighting human nature.  And you are fighting the politicians who have to respond to and get votes from the law abiding citizens. Take Baltimore, for example. That police force wasn't racist. For Pete's sake, the mayor, district attorney, most of the city council and the police chief were all black. But when the mayor and city counselors get hell for the high rates of crime in the city, they put pressure on the police chief to get it under control, if he wants to keep his job. The only thing the police chief can do is to go after the criminals, which generally are black in that part of the world. He could, I guess, arrest every white in the city, but that wouldn't make a dent in the crime, would it?

When are the good cops going to stand up to the trigger happy cops and the PDs that systematically use ticketing and such as a means of harrassment and revenue generation in certain neighborhoods?

You know how you people feel about the media and government propaganda narrative? That's how people in a particular demographic feel about all government authority. They simply do not believe the narrative. Just like Alex Jones and his followers think Sandy Hook was a hoax, the rioters will not believe that the guy that got shot was armed. I'm sure you can relate.

It's a straw man comic. I don't think you guys are in the right place, mostly white folks here.

You should go find the nearest black man, and tell him to straighten his people out.

This country has reached a new low when it comes to stupidity.

A black guy is shot and killed by black cop, because he didn't put down a gun when he was repeatedly told to do so. The story is backed up by a black police chief and the victim's brother is on the news telling the cameras that white cops and white people are "the devil". Does his brother know nothing about what happened or is he this stupid?

They went in the Hyatt and punched the front desk clerk and concierge guy in the face a few times, then threw bricks through some of the windows. What happens when they assault the wrong person and a few rioters end up getting their asses killed? Then this thing will explode like a powder keg. Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton will be on planes before they can get their shoes on and all because people are f'ing stupid.

This is not a movement. This is ignorant people looking for an excuse to be violent and cause trouble.
