After Charlotte, North Carolina, saw a second night of violence and destruction in the aftermath of the fatal police shooting of a black man, it is becoming clear that this is a trend which will likely continue: While shouting that black lives matter, looters and rioters lay waste to portions of their own cities and attack others, police officers and white people in particular. This much is clear: While black lives matter, as do all lives, the lies of Black Lives Matter (BLM) have deadly and destructive consequences.
As The New American reported Wedesday, the anger of many black residents of Charlotte was fanned into flames by the false narrative that Keith Lamont Scott was unarmed and carrying only a book when Officer Brentley Vinson shot him simply because he was black. There are two major problems with that narrative. First, Officer Vinson who followed in his fathers footsteps to become a police officer and has been with the Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Department (CMPD) for two years is also black. So it is highly unlikely that his shooting of Scott was racially motivated. Second, Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Chief Kerr Putney who has reviewed the video from the body and dash cameras which captured video of the shooting has made it clear that Scott was carrying a handgun and refused to drop it when ordered to do so. That gun was recovered at the scene, but no book was recovered.

Yes, or they are behaving to prolong or enlarge the crisis. I wonder if the Democrat mayor's hand is in this decision as much as the police chief?
ONLY group I recall backing away from was a biker gang.
Not Latin Kings, not mafia, certainly not obama’s sons.
I was out in Arthur Kills, a semi countryish piece of STaten Island land back then.
Passed a biker gang just chilling and one of them called me guido or something along those lines. I was lol.
I pulled over, got out of my black z28 convertible, started to walk towards them, then got in my car and drove away.
We Italians owned the Island then, but right there and right then, those bikers owned that area and there were NO other Italians in sight :)
Killed me to drive away then. Now, I COULDN’T DRIVE FAST ENOUGH TO GET AWAY!!!! :)
Those other groups, I knew what I was dealing with. But bikers, everyone knows they’re a wild card and dangerous as hell.
Its working, there are less police then there were last year, and a lot less recruits.
Nationwide, and in some places, like Ferguson (shocker right?) they are down a third of their normal strength.
BLM CBC and NBPP are all getting what they wanted.
They are unprepared for getting what they deserve, but thats acoming.
It’s time for “Soilant Green”
We can be, but now days we are busy riding for charities...Tots for Toys for Christmas; Veterans; Wounded Warriors; Crippled Children Foundations...things like that...
We will, however, if you get in our face, probably end up beating the living crap out of you...but usually I’m pretty good natured...hmmmm.....OH and by the way, I’m half Italian and half French...
I figured there were some Italians in the mix but that was 25 years ago, and they weren’t fond of quidos, the 50s equivalent of greasers :)
My brother was a member of the ‘Sundowners’ in Utah...out of Salt Lake City, and he got me my first Harley for my 16th birthday...and old kick start pan head...sure wished I had it today...worth a lot of money...
They were ‘greasers’ and ‘the hood’ back in those days, had a few ‘rumbles’ along the way, but sure had a good up bringing...(after my Victorian Italian Catholic Grandmother who raised me died) God Rest her soul...
Round them all up, lock them behind bars and throw away the key because they’ll never learn to be civilized.
“got out of my black z28 convertible”
So...you were a guido?
They were all over back in the day in my town/area (though many lived in neighboring towns, where their families fled when Newark fell); cops made a killing ticketing them: Speeding, noise complaints (Vanilla Ice blaring), tinted windows...
If I see a spit-shined black Dodge Charger with tinted windows, rolling on 20's...sporting a Jeff Gordon sticker...do I dial 911?
I will say a prayer for her too. She sounds awesome.
I mean that.
NOT ME. NEVER vanilla ice. I liked Freestyle :)
Got pulled over and was going to get SIX tickets, but cop lost my license in his car?!?!!?
Only gave me one ticket with points and another non point ticket because of losing my license.
True story.
Hylan blvd near the Rustic Inn
That’s funny; you still had to replace the license?
In my area cops would sometimes peel the tinting off windows...
