[YouTube] The Truth About The Keith Scott Shooting and Charlotte Riots

[Freedomain]

On Tuesday night, 43-year-old Keith Lamont Scott was shot and killed by Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Officer Brentley Vinson in the parking lot of an apartment complex. Both Scott and Officer Vinson and black, but the shooting nonetheless sparked Black Lives Matter protests which focused the eyes of the world on Charlotte, North Carolina.

Charlotte police originally went to the complex at approximately 4pm, looking for a suspect with an outstanding warrant. Scott was not the suspect, but was observed getting out of his vehicle with a gun, before reentering the vehicle moments later. Officers approached the vehicle and Scott once again exited with the weapon in hand. After repeated orders by Police to drop his firearm, Scott was shot and killed.

 

Scott’s family and Black Lives Matter protestors claim that Scott was “disabled” and was killed while he was peacefully reading a book inside his vehicle. Police have recovered a firearm from the scene, but no books were found on-site. Local protests quickly began and it did not take long for the “peaceful” protests to turn violent.

Hey y'all. I'm a born and raised Charlottean. 

 

Where this happened is in an area where there are lot of apartments with police around. I've actually been in one of the apartments in this area when a live crime scene shooting had occurred a couple months ago.

 

From what I've heard, the protesters blocked I-85 up near where it happened, 10 miles from Uptown Charlotte.

 

The subsequent evenings, it seems all the action has been uptown, about 20 minutes south of the original crime scene. Our uptown is very new and wide and not a typical busy downtown. I've heard reports that the damage might be the most of any recent riots. The rioters have not been shown on the local news helicopters. 

 

This comes as a shock to me because my job has me working with all walks of life. All the young black folks I've met in my city have been anti-BLM. 

 

I would say, in this case, the rioters have taken Milwaukee's Sherrelle Smith's advice, and gone to the more affluent, white areas to destroy and loot.
