Sorry, media: Black Charlotte chief says suspect had a gun, which is why black officer shot him
CANAda Free Press ^ | 09/21/16 | Dan Calabrese

Witnesses corroborate, and no book was found anywhere -- Police Chief: Officers Warned Scott to Drop Gun

Not that there is ever a good reason to have a riot, but the Charlotte rioters might be interested to know they bought a line of crap from the media, which just sent 23 people to the hospital and unleashed hours of chaos in the streets for no reason whatsoever. White-cops-shoot-unarmed-black-man? Don’t think so.

As the video below demonstrates, the media caused all this. More than 1,000 people heard on the news that a guy holding a book was shot by police, and even though these people didn’t know the guy who was shot, they came out anyway and rioted.

And yet none of what they heard was true. A man with a gun was told by police to drop his gun, and he did not comply with that request. I hate to tell you this, but that is going to get you shot every time. Not only that, but in this case - contrary to the media’s racist-white-cops narrative, it was a black cop who felt threatened and fired his weapon, and a black police chief who backed up what his officers had to do.

The media is out of hand, and needs to be held accountable for everything they print and say...

There is a first amendment and I agree with it to a point, but when some idiot journalist who wants 15 seconds of fame and fortune causes people to get hurt or killed, it’s time that they be sued to the hilt and put in jail for slander and fined a lot and not just community time...

Start posting back the correct information whenever you see this..send it to your local paper, local t.v. news...and get it out that America is not putting up with this crap anymore...

A few millions of dollars in a slander lawsuit, and jail time and community service should catch on really quick!!!

If the media keeps this up we will re-live the 1968 riots, which damn near resulted in a race war.

Unfortunately, police nowadays have no credibility.

How often have we seen police report of a man “pointing a gun” or “reaching for his waistband” turn out to be pure hokum when a video turns up?

Won’t matter one bit to the race baiters and rioters. Practically all of their “heroes” deserved every grain of lead that they got.

To them, Trayvon will forever be a 12 yo football star who was gunned down by a white racist wannabe cop who claimed “Stand Your Ground” to get off and Michael Brown had his hands up and was yelling “don’t shoot” when he was gunned down by a racist white officer for just walking in the street.

It doesn’t help when the media repeats portions of those lies whenever there’s a new shooting.

"...Black police chief says black police officer shoots armed black crook..."


As seems to be the current tacticool fashion, the black officer with the black chief who shot the black crook...was very likely driving a black patrol car, with black police decals, with black window tint. ;-)

Exactly right. These fake journalists and the people who employ them need to be indicted for crimes under the RICO statutes.

Because no reparations. All of this BLM crap is just an extortion attempt before the Magic Negro leaves office.
