Charlotte, North Carolina (CNN)The officer who fatally shot Keith Lamont Scott won't face charges, a prosecutor said Wednesday, closing a two-month investigation into the killing that led to heated protests and divided the city of Charlotte.

Mecklenburg County District Attorney Andrew Murray said he didn't reach the decision alone; a total of 15 prosecutors unanimously agreed that Charlotte-Mecklenburg police Officer Brentley Vinson was justified in shooting Scott on September 20 in an apartment complex parking lot.

What the race baiters wanted was to ignore the facts and put the officer in jail just because he’s white.

“get ready for more BLM riots”

And more police stand-downs for “space to destroy” — at least until January 20.

Left will say the LEO identifies as White, much as Rachel Dolezol identifies as Black.

Thankfully, we have a line of very strong thunderstorms coming through. These have spawned tornadoes & hail in Mississippi and Alabama. It also looks like they are giving Gatlinburg, Western NC and North Georgia a much prayed for soaking rain.

Perhaps these will dampen the flaming anger of the BLM mobs.

BTW, I watched part of the DA’s press conference on local TV. Black Police Chief, Black Police Office fired the shots, the entire situation was recorded by multiple cameras & audio recorders. Ample evidence to exonerate the police.

If there are riots, the ‘community’ organizers & leaders who call for “action” meed to be charged with Inciting to Riot.

Yes, but to paraphrase Whoopi Goldbereg, “is he black-black”?

The man shot was a convicted felon with a firearm on his person, right? He didn’t drop the gun after ordered, right? Is that the case?

And the cop who shot him was black, right?

I honestly can’t remember...there are so many of these media-driven lies...
