'Heartbroken' mother of Keith Scott claims book he was reading when shot by police was the Koran
Daily Mail ^ | 9-23-16 | Snejana Farberov

The mother of Keith Scott says her 43-year-old son was reading his Koran in the parking lot of a Charlotte, North Carolina, apartment complex when he was shot dead by a police officer Tuesday.

Scott's killing was followed by violent riots and bouts of looting that engulfed the city, leaving one protester dead, nine injured and 44 others arrested.

Police in Charlotte have said that Scott was shot after he refused orders to drop a gun he was holding, but the man's family said the item he was holding was a book, not a firearm.

In an exclusive interview with the station WCSC Thursday night, Scott's mother, Vernita Scott Walker, claimed that the book her son was reading in his truck was the Koran, which he used to do every day while waiting to pick up his son from school.

'He loved to read that book,' Mrs Walker said of the holy text of Islam.

I don’t know. I haven’t read it but I assume it has lots of sex and violence.

"He loved to read that book," Mrs Walker said of the holy text of Islam.

Oh me too! And those Jason and Freddie Krueger slasher movies, great stuff!

And notice how it wasn't the mother using the word holy. Just the author letting you know about this wonderful book just chock full of love and forgiveness. Well, and maybe just a bit of beheadings, torture, pedophilia, misogyny, robbery, etc.

Need a quick rundown on the evil that is Islam?

Earlier today I was pondering why the family was so convinced he had a book. It’s because they knew he was an ex-con Muslim convert always thumping his Koran.

This actually is making sense when considering the official 'narrative', which obviously has little to nothing to do with facts on the ground.

Sundance over at TheConservativeTreehouse issued a number of Tripwire alerts in anticipation of this, specifically this:

Ditto. If he was reading the Koran and had a record it was just a matter of time before he was radicalized

Hmmm? Just a little more proof he was probably out to do harm, IMO.

He was a career criminal. It appears he was a Moslem career criminal. Everyone other than his family - and maybe them, given his record of violence to women and children - is better off now.

And .. the forensic tests of the “weapon” - which is clearly visable in the video - while the wife was swearing her husband didn’t have one; was found to have Scott’s blood and his fingerprints on it.

SOOOOOO .. THERE WAS A WEAPON .. AND THE FORENSICS PROVE HE HELD IT AND HIS BLOOD WAS ON IT INDICATING HE PROBABLY HAD IT IN HIS HAND WHEN HE WAS SHOT.

CASE OVER !!!!!!!

And .. there was NO BOOK.

You might want to pass this around to your friends.

How does she know what he was doing if she wasn’t there? That should be the first question any journalist with commonsense should be asking!

I understand it’s very common for criminals attending riots to take breaks and read books.

And .. because he was an Ex-Con .. IT WAS ILLEGAL FOR HIM TO BE IN POSSESSION OF A WEAPON.
