Rioting and looting in Charlotte

PROTESTS, RIOTING IN SWING STATE

IS THIS SPONTANIOUS OR CAMPAIGN PLAN?




We hear that the democrats are concerned that African American voters are not sufficiently motivated to come out strongly for Hillary Clinton. Is their strategy now to gin up unrest and controversy in the states needed to win the November election. This was first questioned in 2012 when the George Zimmerman,Trayvon Martin incident was blown up by the administration and the media into a racist incident. NBC news went as far as to alter the 911 tape to make Zimmerman appear to be motivated by race. Florida of course was a pivotal state in the 2012 election.  After all the hoopla and goings on Zimmerman was acquitted by a multiracial Jury.

The Michael Brown incident was in the 2014 election, in which the democratic Senator from Missouri was in a close race for re-election. Every African-American voter was needed for success. Eventually we found out that, except for the death of Brown, most of the rest was made up and hyped by the media and the Administration.

No one is suggesting that the incidents are created, but it is not beyond politicians to use any means to enhance their chances of success. It would be plausible that the democratic operatives are on the alert for any incident in swing states that could be used to their advantage.  Once an incident is detected, send in their people. It has been reported that in many of these riots people show up from other states within hours. Who pays for their transportation and expenses?

In watching interviews of local protesters, they are often very reasonable and good law-abiding citizens who just want to express their concern for these incidents. Many times you see these local people try to stop the others from looting and rioting, often placing themselves in danger from the professional protesters and rioters.  These poor people are often hurt, and their cities and livelihoods destroyed. We hope this is not just an effort to energize these people to vote for their candidates without any concern for the damage being done.

  1. "It has been reported that in many of these riots people show up from other states within hours."

    then you have

    "Of the 43 people arrested late Wednesday night and early Thursday morning, 34 – or 79 percent – live in Charlotte, the Observer found. Most of the others live elsewhere in North Carolina, including Albemarle, Gastonia and Greensboro. Three others were arrested Thursday night; of those, two were from Charlotte and the third had not been identified by midafternoon Friday.

    “I didn’t quote facts,” Todd Walther, spokesman for the Charlotte-Mecklenburg Fraternal Order of Police told the Observer on Friday. “It’s speculation. That’s all it was.”

    the out of state protesters claim turns out to be untrue.
    the idea of Democrats having a protest army waiting for an event does not seem to be true.
    it would be impossible to keep something like that quiet.
    basically the Charlotte FOP spokesman was full of crap.

  2. 79 % of those arrested , so 1 in 5 was from outside Charlotte, The riots in Ferguson went on for months, and it was reported that many were from out of the state. someone , of course would have to investigate to determine how many. Many questioned why N.C. and not Oklahoma.

  3. so the one in five would be the same a one from Allentown showing up at a protest in Nazareth.or vice-versa.
    the lie of 70 percent outsiders was tossed out by the Charlotte FOP for the same purpose of your article.to cast doubt on the motives of protesters.
    as far as Tulsa is concerned they learned lessons from having an insurance exec shooting a guy.
    massive changes were made after that and the police in Tulsa have been more responsive to the public.
    of course the initial report from the Tulsa cops did not match the helicopter view.
    so they had no real choice but to charge the officer.
    of course getting a conviction is a totally different story as the police get benefits that mere citizens never get.
    a quick example.
    it is common that a cop involved in a shooting is not interviewed for three days (per FOP agreements).
    so if you were involved in a shooting would the cops give you three days to talk to your lawyer before they interview you?
    the police get that benefit you do not.

  4. yes, I assume you believe the police should be arrested in every shooting incident, the Tulsa incident originally looked bad for the police, but after watching and understanding what was going on it acquits the police of wrong doing. The person in the video had stopped his car in the middle of the highway, rather than moving to the side, not just in his lane but on the yellow line, The police arrive and order the person to raise his hands and he does, but he keeps moving to his car while they are demanding that he stop, he keeps moving to his car and when he reaches the care he drops his right hand, he is then shot. With the racial climate that now exists in the country, stoked by the administration and the media, with assassinations of police a regular occurrence, often after car stops or while on the highway themselves. Police are now constantly on the edge as far as having armed conflicts with suspects. they are on the alert with their finger on the trigger for their own safety. If stopped and given simple orders that are not followed, if people refuse to obey and make sudden moves they are more than likely to be shot. Yes they should be given the benefit of the doubt. These incidents are all thoroughly investigated and the police men and women are usually vindicated. They do sometimes make mistakes and are then prosecuted. Some believe the police are just looking for reasons to shoot blacks and this has been promoted by Obama and his administration for political advantage...... Most all of these incidents would not have happened if the victims had just followed simple instructions and orders from the police. They refused either from mental problems or from a lack of respect for authority.

  5. never said all police should be arrested in every shooting incident.
    but try something similar
    http://www.wfmj.com/story/27753282/texas-man-arrested-after-pointing-gun-at-new-castle-police-officers

    "Police say when they approached Frazier's vehicle it appeared he was going in and out of consciousness and that he refused to acknowledge requests to unlock the vehicle doors.

    When officers attempted to gain entry into the vehicle Frazier allegedly pulled a small caliber hand gun from his coat pocket and pointed it at police.

    Officers and medics took shelter and continued to make contact with Frazier.

    Shortly before 3 a.m. Police say they broke the windows in the truck and extricated Frazier."

    clearly a guy with a problem with obeying simple instructions and a lack of respect for authority.
    he was white and the officers used good judgement.
    guess it pays to be white and not in Tulsa.

    or the latest from the police officer's attorneys claim
    http://www.tulsaworld.com/news/crimewatch/attorney-officer-who-shot-terence-crutcher-had-auditory-exclusion-didn/article_67cfee72-01ce-547c-a2e2-a74ce2414b13.html

    "Scott Wood, who represents Shelby, said she experienced “auditory exclusion.” Wood described it as a phenomenon officers often experience in critical incidents that results in a temporary loss of hearing.
    Because of that, Wood said, Shelby didn’t hear other officers arrive with their cars’ sirens activated or approach her. Nor did she hear Officer Tyler Turnbough tell her that he had his Taser ready because she was “totally focused” on Crutcher, he said.
    “She doesn’t have any recollection of that at all,” Wood said.

    why would any police officer want to be around her?
    they trust her with their life and she did not know they were anywhere around?
    for the Tulsa cops to back her with that kind of claim defies common sense.

  6. Sometimes everything goes well and sometimes not, to suggest that the difference is all racially motivated is a biased opinion, every incident is unique, and the officer in Tulsa may not be up to the job. But to suggest that will bring charges of sexism, as this officer is a women, if the person would have stopped and obeyed orders, he would most likely be still alive.

  7. and if the Tulsa cops gave him the benefit of the doubt which most white folks get he would be alive as well.
