Cops in Raleigh, North Carolina, shot and killed a man who was throwing Molotov cocktails outside the police station Saturday, authorities said.

The incident started around 1:20 p.m. when the unidentified suspect began lighting cars on fire in the police parking lot with the incendiary weapons, officials said at a press conference.

“Commands were given to this individual to stop his actions,” Raleigh Police Chief Estella Patterson said.

“The individual continued to throw multiple Molotov cocktails in the parking lot and eventually towards our officers who were there.”

This is what Portland police and the feds should have done in Portland, Oregon.

I think it happened in Seattle too (”CHAZ” - or whatever it was called). The rioters tried to cement the door to the police station shut and threw molotov’s at the place.

In response, Seattle

reduced the amount of cops.

Four cops then opened fire on the man, shooting him “multiple times,” according to Patterson.

This should bother people.

For once, the police do what is necessary to stop a fanatic antifa democrat. Good news story of the day.

Yes it is bothersome - cops obviously need more range time.

Its about damn time! This should have happened a lot in 2020 during the Burn Loot Murder/Klantifa riots.

A Molotov Cocktail is a deadly weapon. If somebody is getting ready to throw one, shoot him dead.

Then again, this was in a southern state, not a bastion of leftist lunacy.


Raleigh is now a full woke lefty craphole.

You can bet if he was a Biden/Garland declared white supremacist it would be headline news for the next week and wall to wall coverage of incarceration, trial and execution...

When I lived in the area, SE Raleigh was very heavily Amish.

The puppet masters need distractions with Roe potentially being overturned and 2000Mules coming out. Looks like they are activating their MKULTRA Anitfa/BLM zombies to pursue that end...

Watch your 6 all...
