A Charlotte-Mecklenburg police officer shot and killed an armed man named Keith Scott at an apartment complex Tuesday, while executing an arrest warrant. Angry street protests began almost immediately.
CMPD Chief Kerr Putney reiterated Wednesday morning that Keith Scott was armed when he approached officers in University City Tuesday. Putney said that officers gave repeated verbal commands for Scott to drop his handgun. He said Scott posed a threat to the officers.

Why would Wal-Mart do this? They'd lose more money in one day than they lost as a result of the riots. Plus, Wal-Mart makes billions off of EBT card purchases - they aren't going to do anything to jeopardize that. Wal-mart is firmly in Obama's corner.
Maybe it was “The Rapper’s Bible.”
Dash Cam video showed the gun, too.
They’re gonna ‘see’ what they’re told to see and keep on looting and beating whitey. Weekend comin’ up and hell to pay.
c’mon; thats a book! Clear as day!
Walmart is acum. They are as addicted to food stamps as they are.
I know. None of the ones rioting are going to even look at it.
I heard they just looted the books. Because they all wanted something to read.
LOL, and this is good too:
They found #KeithScott book

GUN, set, match...
“Media got it wrong again.”......Not only the media, the street rat “information channel” passed it along before any reporter was on scene.
but, but, but...it was a BOOK!!!!
Facts don’t matter.
Charlotte, the Seattle of the East, hard core leftist city government just can’t seem to please the hard core leftist liberals of the city. Just get some popcorn and sit back to watch.
Of course....facts don’t advance the narrative.
Three-quarters of them don’t have any idea why they are rioting, other than “get whitey.”
This is not about reality.
This is about the legacy of the professional community agitator in the White Hut.
Logic no longer applies.
These people aren’t rioting. They are merely trying to get school clothing and books for their children.
“Don’t pass along the cost of damaged stores to all other Wal-Mart stores across the country.”..
As I recall, Wal-Mart has endorsed Clinton. Hmmmmmm? For those who frequent their stores, “to boycott or not”, that is the question.
