Charlotte Leader Warns that Violence Will Not Stop Until Things Change

Religious leaders in Charlotte, North Carolina are no longer condemning violent protests, but instead are warning that if things do not change between the government and African-Americans, more violence will ensue. One pastor also called for an economic boycott throughout the city.

"We are watching a modern day lynching," he said. "If we don't get justice, this is what you see (referring to the violent protests Tuesday night) and you are going to see more of that. And we are not going to tell are brothers and sisters to stop."

“Vote for Donald Trump! I will fix it! What in the hell have you got to lose!!!!”

More and more African Americans, it seems, are heeding Donald Trump’s call. They will be leaving these radical agitators posing as protestant ministers behind!!

North Carolina is a growth area for the Orthodox Church. Perhaps one of our Churches can establish a mission in Charlotte’s inner city. African American Trump supporters may need a new Church that emphasizes God’s kingdom, NOT political agitation!!!!

I just solved this problem of all the shootings, just do what the COP says. There should be a law that if you don’t do what the COP says the second time he shoots you, simple. Some people would call it thinning the herd.

Nobody would accept that, at least those who still boast of keeping the Ten Commandments.

Police Chief Kerr Putney said Officer Brentley Vinson shot Scott because the man posed a threat. Vinson is black, as was Scott.

“it was a black cop”

Doesn’t matter if it’s an Eskimo cop. As long as black men keep climbing out of their cars with guns, or reaching into their cars when stopped by police, or attacking cops or neighborhood watch residents like Zimmerman for trying to do their jobs, they’re going to keep getting shot.

I haven’t been stopped by police since I was 19 for an expired registration sticker. I listened to the cop and followed his instructions. Let’s face it: if you or I were stopped by police, for whatever reason on the street or in our cars, and we got in the cop’s face with our fists or out of the car with a gun in our hands, or ignored the cops’ orders so that the cop reasonably believed he might get shot or grievously injured—we would get a beatdown, sprayed, tazed or shot.
That’s the stone truth.

So what is it that makes black men special? What `change’ does the “Charlotte leader” want?
That black men have a race card license to be obstreperous with police? Or to wave handguns around without facing the possibility of a gunfight with trained gunfighters? Or facing brandishing charges or any repercussions at all?

So what do they want? What? Their position is ludicrous. The solution is simple. They can join society or keep getting shot.

Violence and homicides are already changed in black neighborhoods because the police are hesitant to enforce the law there.

Idiot.

A lyching is what occurs when due process is not observed. You can’t just serve up a person to the mob and call it justice.

“Religious Leaders”

Black Liberation Theology ‘churches’. Continuing Bammy’s Rev. Wright’s “God da** America!” preaching.

Wonder what Rev. Wright has been up to...

******************************

Yes, way past time for things to change. Start arresting their arses on the spot and put these “thugs” in jail where they belong!

QUIT enabling them to riot. Rioting is not a peaceful protest..... time they learn the difference.

I’ve only only seen a dashcam video and it does look questionable. I don’t think race was a factor.

I have zero problem with deep, deep investigations of such things. We are talking about people who are charged with the highest level of responsibility, namely licenses to kill.

It’s a travesty and a very selfish act for mobs to turn such serious questions into circuses.

Don’t for get that kaine and hildabama are both well versed in “liberation theology”. It’s still “LT” even it it isn’t the ‘aa’/jerry wright version.
