LOL ? No! The NG won’t even have ammo. Each officer MIGHT get a 20rd box of ammo that had better be turned in unopened.

I agree-—and I’m sick of libs like Geraldo saying that they really are targeted by police and that a “conversation” is needed.
A conversation??????????????????

http://www.powerlineblog.com/archives/2016/09/meet-the-black-charlotte-police-officer-who-shot-keith-lamont-scott.php Meet the black Charlotte police officer who shot Keith Lamont Scott We wrote here about Keith Lamont Scott and his long criminal record which includes assault convictions and gun offenses. But what about Brentley Vinson, the black police officer who fatally shot Scott? The Charlotte Observer provides this profile of Officer Vinson. From it, we learn that he grew up in Charlotte, was a football star in high school, and dreamed of becoming a police officer like his father. Vinson was all-conference in football as a high school junior, but was unable to play during his senior year due to a serious knee injury. The next year, he played at a prep school, earning a scholarship to Liberty University. At Liberty, Vinson studied criminal justice. He became a captain of the football team and led it in tackles as a senior in 2012. In 2014, Vinson joined the Charlotte-Mecklenburg police force. He has not been subject to any disciplinary action, according to personnel records released by the police department. What kind of a guy is Vinson. His middle school football coach said this about him: I thought when he became a police officer like his dad (Alex) that it was a perfect fit for him. I've watched this kid work his butt off from an early age. He's a phenomenal kid and happens to be in an unfortunate situation right now, and I hate to see him be in the middle of it and being vilified the way he is. Vinson's high school football coach was equally effusive. He says that after Vinson returned to Charlotte, he would often ask his former star to come and speak to his players. At one point, Vinson mentored a player who had suffered a knee injury similar to the one that kept Vinson off the field his senior year. The coach concluded: We need more Brent Vinsons, that type of person, in our communities. . .Hes a natural leader and one of those guys who always had the best interest of others before himself. The coach was quick to add that he doesn't know the events surrounding the shooting of Scott. And, though it seems highly implausible that Vinson shot Scott for no reason, we cannot conclude from Vinson's exemplary past that he acted properly on this occasion. But we can conclude that Vinson's ambition was to serve and protect the citizens of his home town, not to kill black men without justification. We can also say that it's awful to see this promising young black man vilified before the facts are in.

http://bluelivesmatter.blue/keith-lamont-scott-shot/ Unarmed Keith Lamont Scott Shot Gun Recovered By Donut Operator On September 20, 2016 364 Comments "Unarmed" Keith Lamont Scott Shot Unarmed Keith Lamont Scott Shot Gun RecoveredRiots have begun in the area where the shooting occurred. People are getting assaulted and rioters are looting. More information on the rioting HERE. Charlotte, North Carolina An officer involved shooting took place a few hours ago in North Carolina. Contrary to what the suspects family is saying about their family member, Keith Lamont Scott, being "unarmed", Charlotte police recovered a gun on scene.
Charlotte-Mecklenberg Police were searching for a wanted suspect at the Village at College Downs apartments Tuesday afternoon when they ran into Keith Lamont Scott. Officers on scene stated that they observed a man (Scott) get out of a vehicle armed with a gun. Police approached the man after he had gotten back in to his car. As police drew closer to the Scott, he stepped out of the car with the gun and an officer shot him. Charlotte-Mecklenburg police Chief Kerr Putney stated that the man posed an imminent deadly threat to the officers. Officers immediately began performing CPR and rendering first aid to Scott after the shooting. He was taken to Carolinas Medical Center where he died of his injuries. The shooting officer has been identified as Officer Brentley Vinson. Both men are black. Police have recovered the firearm that Keith Lamont Scott was holding when he was shot. A woman at the scene of the shooting who claimed to be Scott's daughter live-streamed on Facebook for over an hour. On the Facebook stream the woman can be heard screaming "they shot my daddy, he didn't have no gun." and "they just plantin shit, they shot my mo***f*****n daddy four times for being black". One officer walked by the woman filming and she states "he probably rapes his m*****f****** daughter" towards the officer. She continued to call the officers ugly and shout profanities at them. In the Facebook video you can see a crowd gathering and shouting insults at the officers. One man can be heard yelling "put your guns down and we'll fight you" to the police. A local news reporter was told by family members and neighbors that Keith Lamont Scott "was only reading a book". In the video below you can see over 100 people have already gathered outside the apartment complex. They can be heard screaming Black Lives Matter. Here's what the scene looks like now. Over 100 people gathered outside complex. @WBTV_News pic.twitter.com/o9fNu6ojJW Sarah-Blake Morgan (@SarahBlakeWBTV) September 21, 2016

Here we go again..... Community activists in play now to make their demands....expect to see this lady soon on the seen...to escalate this....once the violence starts....soros will hire her to organize the activists.......so that they too can get paid as they were in Ferguson and Maryland....
Soro's and Obama's 'call girl' Marxist "Lisa Fithian".....street activist.... who loves to shut things down from streets to airports...whatever it takes she'll do including violence. The fires and violence in Ferguson are directly related to her work there....she gets paid BIG busks!
FLASHBACK:
Here's just some of Ferguson Protesters that were paid to protest and organize protesters...

This has nothing to do with the incident with the police officer etc. Soros Obama and Hillary are behind this uprising I have no doubt at all.....and if it grows further they'll bring in Radical Organizor" Lisa Filith" to organize the activists and the street protests....
Bringing in the Nat'l Guard just gave Lisa a heads up to be sure....protests have to come to a certain point before she will consider going in and she's not cheap....(she is known Internationally to organize protests and Activists often paid by Nations Leadership)....but only when they reach a certain point. Blacks are the easiest for her to rile up and organize to do the bidding of those that pay her to do so... organize..march..close bridges...set fires...the works surely to follow if she comes on the scene.....She was the brains behind the violent 1999 World Trade Organization protests in Seattle... a self-described anarchist.
