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."

“Some black guy was just interviewed on WSOC and said they are planning to take their protests to the “rich suburbs”.

Find the suburbs that went heavily for Obama and we’ll pay for the buses.

I think there are a few stretches of the Charlotte burbs where they would regret protesting.

If they go out towards Albermarle, it won’t be pretty.

just like "global warming" transitioned into "climate change" now its the "govt" vs the black man, not just the white man vs the black man....

that way, they can still complain when a black cop shots a black thug...(granted, some incidents were uncalled for)

Dear Pastors: Consult scripture: untruth will not set you free.

If the black cop is racist, wouldn’t he be shooting white people?

As the ‘protestor’ at the recent Milwaukee riots said:
“It’s sad, because you know, this what happened because they not helping the black community, like you know, the rich people, they got all this money, and they, like not trying to give us none.”

Ergo white Republicans fault.

"... that if things do not change between the government and African-Americans, more violence will ensue."

What on earth is he referring to? Officer Brentley Vinson, a Black man, shot Keith Scott also black and who had a gun and did not respond to the officer's orders......The Americans with darker skin, need to start behaving like adults; need to teach their children to respect Law and Order; need to teach everyone to respect Law and Order; Ministers, pastors,teachers and PARENTS...THEY ARE THE FRONT LINE or should be! This thinking that because your skin is a little darker you are entitled to create chaos when you don't get your way...that is WHAT HAS TO STOP! No More.............

GROW UP!

Things will never change. Obama saw to that when he allowed that abomnation BLM grow.
A leader would have shut that down immediately knowing the only oputcome would be more deaths of all peoples.
As long a grops of people belive that the get justice through violence this is nevergoing to change. It will only beget more violence.

“Things can change” can mean something much different than this community agitator has in mind ... like decent Americans no longer putting up with the felonious behavior from thugs. That would be a good change!

If they take their protest to the Rich Suburbs, I hope they come back home in body bags.

“...planning to take their protests to the “rich suburbs”.

Oh, where the small percentage of people own the large percentage of guns? I see...

What do you suppose the average IQ of a BLM supporter is?

Busy day on the CMPD scanner feed.

Someone just called 911 and made a bomb threat against a police station.

So this is what we have after 7 1/2 years of the “uniter not a divider?”

Most racially divisive president ever.

And I have been on the planet since Eisenhower .
