But it was by a black cop!

Do they really believe he was shot for being black, or is that just a convenient excuse to riot and loot?

If you are stopped and you get out of the car with a gun, the likelihood of getting shot is quite high.

If you are stopped and you do stupid things (getting out of the car with a gun is but one example of doing something stupid), the likelihood of getting shot is quite high.

Stealing big screen TVs from Walmart and destroying a few businesses should resolve the situation. At least that's what the BLM activists must think.

Officers saw Scott get out of the car with a gun and then get back in, Trietley said. When officers approached, the man exited the car with the gun again. At that point, officers deemed the man a threat and at least one fired a weapon
...
A woman claiming to be Scott's daughter said in a video posted on Facebook that her father was unarmed and had a book, not a gun. Police say they found no book at the scene.
The police chief said officers requested medical help and performed CPR on Scott.
Black lives do matter. That's why they should not be getting out of cars with guns when police officers want to talk to them. Unfortunately, that is not the lesson any of the black people learned from this. What a waste.

He was shot because he didn't drop his gun.

All Lives Matter.
When the professional whiners understand this, the problem will start to solve itself.
When it is all about skin color instead of truth,every one loses.
-
Now the protesters want to boycott "white" business to teach the "whites" a lesson. The cop was black, the police chief is black.

They are just so used to having white people come in and take care of them. And liberals are always ready to oblige.

Just another excuse to act up, destroy private property, and STEAL STUFF. They should have brought in the entire police force and state police to ARREST ALL OF THEM.

Don't forget the liquor store for gin and juice.

I'm seeing reports that are from an eyewitness to the shooting that:
1: The cop was White
2: The victim didn't have a gun

Why don't you show us those reports. The black CMPD Chief said he had a gun.

Did Calypso Louie give you that info? ::)

Looks like tonight in Charlotte during the rioting, a civilian was shot and killed by another civilian. Developing story, gonna be a long night there.

Chief Kerr Putney said Scott posed a threat because officers saw him exit a vehicle twice with a the gun and didn't drop it when police ordered him to do so.
WSCO (http://on.wsoctv.com/2cnnazy) said Chief Putney said he saw some of the video from the scene, but not all of it.
"I can tell you a weapon was seized, a handgun. I can also tell you, we did not find a book, that has been made reference too," said Putney. "I can just tell you what I know based on what we've gathered through the scientific process of going through the evidence.
You, and the rioters in Charlotte, do not get to have your own facts.
-
FYI, both the officer who shot him, Brentley Vinson, and police chief Kerr Putney are black.

It doesn't matter anymore. They still blame Whitey. These officers are just uncle Toms working for THE MAN, you know. This is just an excuse to be lawless, steal stuff, and create mayhem for fun. They should have been crushed immediately. The perp got out of the car twice, armed with a handgun. He was put down because he posed a legitimate threat to the black police officer.

Too bad there aren't viable non-lethal means to neutralize threats. (serious comment, no subtext or sarcasm)
Having non-lethal means would help address reduce the number of police shootings, including shooting teenagers with toy guns.

You think this gets any better if the Twitter feed says "OMG, they just tased my father. He was holding a book!"?
-
Lets see, actively discriminate against folks for decades. Then do your darnedest to keep them politically disenfranchised. And then wonder when they turn to violence.
-

Yes. Most people who get tased don't die. There is a greater probability of dying if you are shot than if you are tased. However, I'm not going to claim that it will completely fix the problem. So, "better" yes. How much better is debatable, but still better.
Of course, the people who want to loot and steal will use any excuse. Maybe I'm being too pollyannaish, but I expect that police officers would prefer to not kill someone and would prefer non-lethal means of stopping a threat.

1) do you even know what you are talking about?
2) Who is wondering?
3) I hope that you are excusing the violence. Edit: NOT excusing the violence... dang tyop

The Democrats have discriminated against blacks for decades and have done their best to keep them politically disenfranchised. They (democrats) using taxpayer dollars and the media have been able to keep it hidden.
Go do a little research on the history of the Democratic Party.
-

The reports I'm receiving indicate that FB feeds have been turned off. One report produced of a protester shot in the face a point-blank range with a rubber bullet. I don't know if it was fatal, but I'm sure it hurt like hell.
There was even a minimum distance when we used blanks in training in the Corps. The blanks were only noisemakers but the distance requirement was a safety measure. Why does it seem that there is more safety in training killers than peace officers doing their job or otherwise?

And the only difference that I have found between the Democratic leadership and the Republican leadership was that one of 'em was skinning you from the ankle up and the other from the ear down - Huey Long

Yes... Dear Progressive Parasite. WHITES have been disenfranchised for months at the hands of progressive academics lying like the dogs they are, along with progressive politicians and judges playing the race game night and day.

Nice deflection. It is a FACT that the democrats started out as and have used racism in their history, go look it up, all of the facts are there. The Republican Party was created to promote FREEDOM and also advocated freeing slaves and rights to blacks.
The democrats use the blacks for votes in buying them off just enough with tax payer dollars, again FACT.
After 50+ years of the democrats buying black votes, please point out what they have done to advance blacks and made their lives better.

LMFAO. Politically disenfranchised? Which party runs almost every city in the country? How did they get elected? What does their population look like?

While I agree with you, I simultaneously agree with Mr. Long.

This is why the guy in Charlotte got shot. Kyle Dinkheller, a deputy in Georgia, was killed in the making of this video. The gentleman in the white truck, Andrew Brannan, was executed by the State of Georgia on January 13, 2005. It's challenging to maintain my belief in not taking life when you have people like this.
Warning, graphic.

Isn't it odd that they are doing so much to publicize the identity of the Officer who fired the fatal shots when it normally takes longer than this to know this information???

I agree that situation got far out of hand. It's too bad the officer missed with every round fired. He had the initiative, lost it, the score was even and he lost again. This (I'm sure) is being circulated as a training video of what not to do.

Because training is training, and rubber bullets are meant to quell violence and riots?
And by the way, when police are getting injured and have to armor up, it's no longer a protest. It's a riot.

But you said in another thread that Trump supporters aren't disenfranchised. He has black supporters. You are being inconsistent.

I'm sure it's a training video too. And that's why Keith Scott got shot.
If a man holds a gun,
walks toward officers,
hears "drop the gun, drop the gun, drop the gun" commanded several times
and doesn't drop the gun
Then 10 times out of 10 he is going to get shot. What does anyone THINK would happen in that situation?
Black Lives do Matter. So stop doing stupid stuff!

Nine times out of ten he gets shot. The other time the cop gets shot.

North Carolina has been in the hands of the GOP as long as I can remember. They've passed voter legislation laws that Federal courts have said discriminated against minorities with surgical precision. The State has been boycotted by everyone from Ringo Starr to the NCAA.

I am disappointed in the NCAA. Most of those other groups and performers, not so much. Of course though, racism has nothing to do with the recent boycotts.
If N.C. is so discriminatory against blacks, how did a black man become Chief of Police?
Just more liberal lies and deception.

The Democrat Party is the birthplace of the KKK and also has a long history of racism.
-
I think the academic progressive is deliberately ignoring the racist behavior of liberal politicians because his progressive academic talking points memo 'forgot' to mention a few things... like what party started the KKK and supported it for decades, even lionizing a US Senator by naming the Senate Office Building after his, who was famous for pushing through the Russell amendment barring white soldiers from being 'forced' to serve alongside black soldiers.
Then there's the former KKK grand Wizard who served as a leading democrat in the US senate until for many decades without a word of criticism from the hypocritical democratic party of racism.
Which party organized the voted to defeat the Civil Rights Act of 1957???
Which party nearly did it again under JFK but got defeated by a determined group of REPUBLICAN senators who fought to get it passed?

The strangest thing is I always hear about LEOs saying they fear for their lives and how their job is so dangerous. Don't get me wrong, I think being an LEO is a crap job and they deserve lots of respect. But being an LEO is not the most dangerous professions, indeed a long way from it. More dangerous to be a longer, a roofer, and yes even a pilot.

... The bottom line, law enforcement professions are the only careers on the list in which being murdered is actually an occupational hazard.

I didn't say they were. But whenever we have this sort of shooting, some police advocate will come on the air and tell us just how dangerous being an LEO is. And someone will put up some horrible vid on the internet of a police officer murdered in the line of duty. But if you look at the stats police work is not the most dangerous of professions by a fairly wide margin. It is the profession at which you're most likely to be murdered.

Your implication was that LEOs don't need to be afraid. It doesn't matter if some professions are more dangerous. The fact is that LEO have a dangerous job.

I've been a LEO for 13 years. Been in a shooting, been to the emergency room twice (once in the back of an ambulance), surgery to fix injury on the job, and been in more fights than I remember. More dangerous than my father-in-law the retired roofer, and he will even tell you that. Do I fear for my life all day, no, but I've been in plenty of situations where I have.

To me, the main difference between the dangers of being a LEO and other professions is that most other professional injuries are caused by their own carelessness. Yes, their jobs are dangerous, that is why they need to be extra careful.
But the dangers to LEOs are largely from other people and no matter how careful you are, those other people can think and plan how to hurt you. And if you do pay attention and take actions to protect yourself, you may wind up on the news or in court.
Comparing the dangers of being a roofer and being a cop are apples and oranges.

My Grandfather was a Philly beat cop, then a Philly detective. He never had to draw his Smith and Wesson revolver. It is a different world now. Glad you pulled through, and thanks for being one of the good guys. I do think some police are different now, as municipalities want to generate revenue from traffic stops, and other means. A lot of fishing expeditions going on for broken tail lights, etc.

Trees don't go out of their ways to kill loggers. Roofs don't decide one day to kill roofers and airplanes don't wake up in the morning deciding to go get a pilot because they don't like them. While there are jobs that can kill more of their practitioners then being a cop, none of them have sentient beings deciding to kill the practitioners.

Kind of like the pathetic little androgynous male, movie actor who claimed being in a movie about the war was just as dangerous and scary as being in the war.

Serious question - how many more of the false narrative black lies matter storylines need to be shown to be demonstrably false and racially (hate whitey) motivated before they stop being a thing?
Not one of these in recent memory has turned out to be, factually, anything like what they were represented to be - when will the black community at-large come to their senses and see how these frauds are damaging the cause and actually pause before jumping to conclusions and spinning up the riot/looting/cop shooting apparatus?

Black Lies Matter is based on the false premise that Michael Brown was shot while innocently walking down the street with his hands up. Never happened.
"Hands Up Don't Shoot" is the big lie.

This is what the mainstream media won't tell you as they want to promote this false narrative to advance their PROGRESSIVE AGENDA. It also creates more controversy to get people to watch them.
