Chaos gripped the streets of Charlotte, NC last night, as angry rioters turned violent for the second night in a row over the deadly police shooting of a black man.
Reports on the violence that have emerged from Wednesday night’s violence are shocking — and included disturbing news that the bloodthirsty mob attempted to burn a news photographer alive, according to local television station WCCB.

Video of the reported police response to the scene has since emerged on social media. In the footage, a rioter appears to push over a woman that is attempting to shield the apparently unconscious photographer from violence. The crowd eventually retreats enough to allow police to rush in and pull the man’s limp body away from the open flames.

Rioters also attacked a CNN news reporter live on air, knocking the man down in an unprovoked attack.

Responding to the escalating violence, Fox News and other television stations pulled their field teams out of the area. But social media footage captured horribly displays of random violence.
We are officially evacuating all of our FOX crews from uptown Charlotte. National Guard en route, SWAT sent out, protests escalating.

Here, eyewitness video shows a mob chasing and beating a man begging for mercy in a downtown parking garage. During the savage assault, the mob strips the man of his clothing. As they leave, one of the rioters laughs and exclaims, “We should get one more like that!”

One rioter was shot in the head by a member of the mob while the nearby crowd hurled rocks and other objects at police. The wounded man remains in critical condition and is on life support.

According to The Associated Press, at least three major businesses were asking their employees to stay home for the day as the city remained on edge Thursday morning.
Bank of America, Wells Fargo and Duke Energy all told employees not to venture into North Carolina’s largest city after Gov. Pat McCrory declared a state of emergency Wednesday night and called in the National Guard after Charlotte’s police chief said he needed the help. The North Carolina National Guard arrived at a Charlotte armory early Thursday and Guard vehicles left the armory about 8 a.m.
Federal help also is on the way, with the Justice Department sending to Charlotte a team of trained peacekeepers designed to help resolve community conflict. The department’s Community Relations Service has been deployed to other cities roiled by tense flare-ups between police and residents.
Meanwhile, Mayor Jennifer Roberts told ABC’s “Good Morning America” on Thursday that city officials are talking about imposing a curfew.
Anger has continued to build over the shooting of 43-year-old Keith Lamont Scott by a black police officer on Tuesday afternoon and the wildly different accounts about what happened from authorities and Scott’s family and neighbors.
Doug says
Has America turned into a bunch of devils, these pictures look like something right out of the pit of hell, let’s see a black cop shot a black man because he had a gun, and now the blacks wanted to kill white people, sounds like a play right out of George Soros, Obama’s and Hillary’s play book, let’s include the lying liberal news media , this is Obama’s and Hillary’s America they own it !
Hanko American says
For some reason NONE of these videos will work! HUMMM?

This is OBAMA “TRANSPARENCY” !! Didn’t YOU RECOGNIZE IT?
Michael says
Wow EMPIRE is back on FOX TV.” Why all the American Firearms Manufacturers are flooded with Firearms.” This time they are prepared without a long waiting list. Put a Muff on the State-CO and City of Charlotte ATTY’s office And cry out for Justice ! With Shoot to kill Orders ! It Worked in The ” 1992 Rodney King Riots with POTUS GHW Bush with military back Up.” as Somehow Marshal Law Backed up The City Of LA Citizens, got to use their Self defense rights. This will be Trumps Monument to back up the Bill of Rights to give another decree. The Cops can’t and never will never quel a large Population without US.and We who are combat Vets can feel it as Obama is waiting.To Bring it on,but under Buma we will suffer.
JIM HANE says
Race relations and the quality of living for many African Americans has gone down under the Obama administration.
Corsica says
It’s a shame none of the innocent people being attacked by the savages were armed. A few good shots at the animals were needed.
DustyFae says
Yes, but one protester was shot but not by cops… May be one of the Soros paid protester was the shooter..
Jane Erway says
Freaking animals!!
Waverly says
They are “freaking animals” because they are for the most
part all bastards. Sad statistic is that greater than 70% of all black males(and females) that are
under 30 never had a father living at home or the father is a no good serial philanderer
the kids can’t respect cause he’s fornication with 8 different women and high on drugs much of the time. Without a respectable father, they have no clue about good behavior (a mother is a poor substitute for a father). That is why they are undisciplined, bitter, violent, unfeeling, sociopathic animals.
Couple that with the manipulation of evil white men like George Soros funding instigating movements like BLM as well as that evil bastard in the White House and you have
a recipe for disaster. By the way….the same can be said to a lesser extent
for bastards in the white and Latino community which have far fewer bastards
by percentage. Since like attracts like….there are probably white/latino bastard children
in this crowd as well. People like this come from unstable homes without a strong
father who is around, and loves their mother, and disciplines his kids. <<<This truth is too hard for them to accept so they grab onto "it is all the violent whites and cops fault" for our problems. Until society deals with the root cause…..you will see more of this animal like behavior all over America. I think that is what the ruling elite including Obama and Hillary want for America.
Flash28 says
If most are unemployed…advise the protestors that if arrested for looting or damage of property, that aside for criminal charges, their EBT payments will be accordingly garnished. And do it!

Rob says
Animals. Welcome to the jungle! They don’t give a Damn about a black man being killed by cops. It is just an excuse to raise Hell, destroy property, hurt innocent people. Time for restraint from authorities for law and order has far past! Time to lock them up for domestic terrorism instead of a night in jail for disorderly conduct!
Since we have a leadership deficit from this president who has fanned the flames of the 60s race wars, t-shirts time for la enforcement to do the job of protecting people and property! If these thugs get hurt, tough! Had they gone home,they wouldn’t have gotten hurt!
Possibly no one noticed last month in Milwaukee. Sheriff David Clark took control from the Wimpy Milwaukee Police Chief Flynn and everything went back to normal very quickly!
merle dickey says
Stop the welfare for them . No more !!!
Gale says
There is a WHOLE LOT MORE that should be done IN ADDITION TO withdrawing welfare. The cops, YES, the same COPS that these SAVAGES are assassinating, need to arrest any AND ALL of them that are breaking the law: SHOOTERS, LOOTERS, those IMPOSING BODILY INJURY TO A-N-Y-O-N-E or ANY property. For the vicious beasts that slip away before they can be rounded up, offer a $5K reward to anyone that has proof (camera footage that shows the person and the act) that contains sufficient evidence to procure a CONVICTION. Further, anyone injuring, killing, or even ATTEMPTING to hurt police, firefighters or ANY responders should get a MANDATORY life without parole sentence. PERIOD!! Yes, permanently remove welfare, AND FOOD STAMPS, FREE HOUSING, AND ‘Obama-phones’, AND SPECIAL SCHOOL PRIVILEGES, AND any other ‘perks’ O-U-R TAX MONEY is paying for. Also, there should be unannounced, random drug testing among ALL recipients of ANY tax-payer funded ‘freebies’. If you apply for a job, before being hired you WILL BE drug-tested AND can be tested randomly at the Co.’s discretion. If it’s good for the tax-PAYERS, it should be good for the TAX-TAKERS!! This drug testing should also include tobacco testing, which is ALSO an addictive DRUG! Have you checked out the cost of a PACK OR CARTON of cigarettes lately? BIG BUCKS! This is NOT where I want MY hard-earned tax $$ to go. The after-effect is that we taxpayers THEN have to pay for the MEDICAL Bills for those TAX-TAKERS that get sick from this filthy habit. I don’t want MY tax $$ paying for THAT either. Every ‘swig’ from that cigarette is a coffin nail. I don’t want MY taxes to go for the coffin either!. The savagery occurring on the streets of our Beloved America makes them (the savages) absolutely NO BETTER than vicious ISIS !! Setting people on fire? That is pure BARBARISM.
Bev Varnado says
Absolutely right! 100%
db says
These rioters are animals. A curfew should be declared by the Governor starting at 6PM and absolutely nobody goes outside until 6am the next morning. If anyone comes out side they are either arrested immediately or are shot on sight.
Born in South and proud of it says
This is nothing that is really new. I lived on the Gulf Coast for over 50 years and most of these types of behavior seemed to start in the mid 70’s. After natural disasters (tornados, hurricanes) the idea seemed to be that it was a good time for looting. There wasn’t much in the way of attacks on people, but looting was rampant in the affected. The scum looters didn’t care who the stores belonged to or what they were. If it was movable or capable of being carried they would break out windows, kick down doors and swarm into to stores stealing anything not nailed down. The one thing that stopped it cold was activating the National Guard, bringing State Troopers and putting a dusk to dawn curfew in effect. Any one found on the street after dusk was subject to immediate arrest. The order was also given that any looter would be shot on sight. Guess what looting ceased. I’m not saying that in current situation to start shooting but things have to be under control and quickly. A dusk to dawn curfew is definitely the first step. In case anyone hasn’t noticed, with the current position of backing off and handling crooks with kid gloves isn’t working. Every incident now is becoming more long drawn out and more violent. Or city and state governments need to wake up. It is a lost cause as far as the federal government waking up.
We need leaders that will actually lead not just run their mouths. God Bless America Trump 2016
merle dickey says
They are showing why they are called animals and trash . It is time to bring out the machine guns . One way is to pass out pamphlets and let them know tha t all government assistance to the afro americans is now canceled due to their rioting and will not be started again until ALL RIOTERS ARE OUT OF THE AREA AND NO MORE RIOTS . And for those who have been identified as a rioter , welfare will no longer be available for them .. See how they like that !! They are only making things worse . Obama , Hillary BLM and Soros money have raised them to the level of wild animals . I have lost any sympathy for them .
Gale says
Slavery WAS wrong! Since the outcome of the CIVIL WAR, T-H-E BLOODIEST WAR IN U.S. HISTORY, slavery was abolished. It was the DEMOCRATIC ‘Slavers’ that fought viciously to KEEP THEIR SLAVES!! ABE LINCOLN, A REPUBLICAN, realized the barbarism, cruelty and absolute INJUSTICE encompassing slavery. That was in 1863 ,, 153 years ago. There HAVE NOT BEEN ANY SLAVES ALIVE IN THIS COUNTRY FOR AT LEAST 50 YEARS. HOWEVER, there HAVE BEEN countless programs to help African-Americans as reparation for what occurred many generations ago. For those ‘enjoying victimhood’, NOTHING will ever suffice. Obama, a DEMOCRAT, loves to publically emulate Lincoln. I believe he THINKS African-Americans extol him for this. But step aside from the emotions, and look at the cold FACTS. Obama’s black Father was from Kenya and later became a FIGHTING RADICAL MUSLIM in the Mid-East. His Mother was white. NO ONE in Barak HUSSEIN Obama’s lineage WAS EVER A SLAVE! But, he sure loves to portray that he has’ welts on HIS back too’. Pure ‘theater’ B.S. In reality, the only ‘Slavers’ of today are in the Democratic Party. They are harnessing old-fashioned GREED to keep Blacks, Latino’s, etc. ‘barefoot, pregnant, uneducated, and TELLING THEM every day that they are ‘VICTIMS’ and that their vote will continue to guarantee their benefits. They DON’T tell them that that same vote is also guaranteeing perpetuation of their ‘VICTIMHOOD’. “GREED” AGAIN is the reason for this: Politicians’ GREED for money and power. Blacks should ask themselves HONESTLY: “Have our lives improved during the last 8 OBAMA years?” ,, as he PROMISED while campaigning. Unemployment, especially with BLACKS is significantly HIGHER since he’s been in office. How has he helped crime, especially in his hometown, Chicago? Obama had the opportunity to lift up blacks in a way that no prior white President could have. Did he do that? NO!! Racial unrest in this Country is now worse than ever! But again, they’re asking for your votes to keep you dangling at the end of their ‘fishhooks’! ‘WAKE UP !!
Jeanette says
All rioters back to Africa would be even better.
BLM = Black Lynch Mob
me says
HOODLUMS…….TAKING THE LAW INTO THEIR OWN HANDS! HURTING INNOCENCE PEOPLE THAT DON’T HAVE ANYTHING TO DO WITH WHAT HAPPENED. NOW, WE KNOW HE HAD A GUN IN HIS HAND. SO, WHY ALL THE VIOLENCE AND DESTRUCTION OF PROPERTY,OTHER THAN BECAUSE THEY WANTED TO……ARREST THEM. LET THEM UNDERSTAND THAT THEIR ACTIONS HAVE CONSEQUENCES, AND IF THEY DIDN’T HAVE A CRIMINAL RECORD…..THEY DO NOW. CLEAN UP THEIR MESS AND PAY FOR ALL DAMAGES, AND SERVE 30 DAYS IN JAIL……..WHO DO THEY THINK THEY ARE?????????? REALLY???????????/
Constitutionalist says
me-
What we are seeing here is a perfect example of why “democracy” was rightfully and thoroughly despised by the Founders and Framers.
Democracy in action is indistinguishable from mob violence, which – for the present in Charlotte – appears to be the majority opinion.
See how easily law is cast aside by the will of the “majority”?
This is why, when Franklin was asked – shortly after the Constitutional Convention – “What kind of government do we have?,” he replied “A Republic, if you can keep it.”
Any and EVERY Constitutional Republic is infinitely superior to any democracy, but only if the Rule of Law – “Equal Justice Under Law,” as is literally carved in stone above the entrance to SCOTUS – can hold sway over the Rule of Men, i.e. that officeholders are held to account for their faithfulness TO that Constitution – or conversely, PROSECUTED for their failures to live up to it or their DELIBERATE attempts to ignore it
If NC’s governor has not called for State National Guard troops to move in and shoot looters and rioters, he’s been complicit, and should be held as accountable as every thief and vandal in Charlotte right now.
PattieA says
What do we can expect from those savages??? Phoking niggahs? We have one in the Black House. Do you hear any condemnation of these terrorists acts? No, of course no.
Hanko American says
YOU GO, GIRL!!!
DustyFae says
The democrats are so sick they are promoting this protesters and all funded by Soros and Obama ..
They know they can NOT get the white people to act like animals but they can get the Blacks to act like animals
wandamurline says
It is time for this to be “hate crimes”….and “terrorist attacks”….it is time for these paid protestors to be held accountable for the destruction and attacks they commit with long prison sentences and having to pay to rebuild what they have destroyed. White men that are unarmed get shot by the police also…usually criminals as the black dudes resisting arrest or attacking the officer…but us white folk do not go out and burn and loot…it is time for this to stop….just another reason to vote Trump….he has said that America is a land of law and he will restore law to America…and this is lawlessness.
Donald says
These are not hate crimes ONLY white people can commit hate crimes
Jerry says
Public safety comes first unfortunately people will start protecting there selves and a lot more deaths will happen. These so called protesters will find out hard way if they come up against the National Guard. Because I guarantee you there standing orders are protect the property and the law abiding civilian population. In other words shoot first sort it out later. I know first hand after serving 22 years.
Jeanette says
If Obama is Commander in Chief of the National Guard, I’ll bet there are no longer standing orders to protect, especially not whites and their assets against violent, primitive blacks.
Me says
And all this violence is supposed to help how? Protesters shooting protesters, chasing down people in parking garages, stripping them of their clothes, and laughing and kicking the person. Seems like these rioters are only showing that they are ignorant, and looking for any reason to be violent.
randy says
Frikin savages.
Ignorant, self serving, utterly stupid moronic fools.
Violence begets violence, want to stop the violence, respond in kind—-it will stop.
On the battlefield, when shot at, a soldier returns fire. Pretty simple solution. Shoot back!
Dave Wolfe says
If there is more shooting the rioting will spread in Charlotte and to other cities. Looks to me like Obama, Sharpton and Jessie are hoping for extream rioting so Obama can have his martial law.
mike says
LoLoLoLoL, What a SATISFYING RIOT of OUT of CONTROL MOBS of LOW-LIFE, NO-COUNT THUGS to watch. LOVE it, LOVE it, LOVE it when their TRUE COLORS come out because the “MEDIA” can’t COVER THEM UP or IGNORE what they DON’T WANT US TO SEE OR KNOW!!!! THAT’S the BEAUTY of RAW, LIVE FOOTAGE. You CAN’T MESS with it OR TWIST IT AROUND!!! GREAT when they SHOOT EACH OTHER! EVEN BETTER when the “MEDIA” themselves get what they have coming to them from the VERY SAME CREATURES they are shoving down OUR throats as “………just PEOPLE crying out for justice………..”. HaHaHaHaHa, SOOOOOOOOOO GLAD. Is there ANYWAY I could PAY someone for TICKETS to MORE OF THIS SHIT??????? WATCH it and WEEP PEOPLE, it’s ONLY GONNAGET WORSE!!!!! LET the GAMES BEGIN!!!!!!!!
Martha says
Unfortunately, I have to agree with everything you’re saying.
M. WILLBUR says
WHAT A BUNCH OF PACK MINDED ANIMALS. THE ONLY THING GOOD ENOUGH FOR THOSE THUGS, WOULD HAVE BEEN AN ARMED VICTIM THAT TOOK A FEW OUT !!
janet says
Two important questions:
1) How do they riot and hold their pants up at the same time?
2) Is it possible to riot with only one hand?
3) What is the sound of one hand rioting?…the same as one hand holding up the pants?
Linda Abernathy says
Maybe if they WORKED they wouldn’t have time to riot! Of COURSE his family is saying he’s innocent, don’t they all say that. They act so victimized. Really? stealing, looting in the very town in which you live? I think the next thing when Trump gets in 1) Drug test before any aid is given 2) Welfare isn’t a retirement system, 1 year and your outta there. I would bet a lot of money that 90% of the people that are rioting don’t have jobs, suck off the government just like the immigrants and just keep having more and more babies (more and more money per baby). It’s time for the Gravy Train to end!
M Hennesy says
Exactly, Linda ! EVERY person getting food stamps, public housing and welfare payments should take a drug test , random test so they don’t cheat , at least once a quarter. YOU FAIL ,..YOU ARE OFF ALL TAXPAYER FUNDED WELFARE ……PERMANENTLY. YOU COMMIT A FELONY …YOU ARE OFF ! These people are THUGS pure and simple . The officer who shot the guy was a black officer …but they are ATTACKING WHITE PEOPLE . THEY ARE THE RACISTS. OBAMA ,HILLARY ,SOROS AND THE DEMOCRATS ARE BEHIND ALL OF THIS CRAP.
Paul says
Your time frame is off, anyone on public assistance should have to take a piss or blood test each month in order to receive a their monthly check.
jabgrandma says
martain luther king would have been the first one STANDING UP WITH HIS GUN to stop the horrible thugs. he stood for peaceful protest.
mike says
You see these animals running around hitting,kicking in destroying anything they see and they wonder why no one to help them. And they want to know why they’re being shot at.Hell ,the way you can take wild animals is shoot them or lock them up. Also I’m not going to feel sorry for you when you guys want to act like thugs and whatever when you try to hurt innocent people.
Stop Government Corruption says
I hope there is enough footage to capture the thugs that committed these violent crimes.
Ron Lindsey says
The armed American is the safe American! These Thugs do not need any reason to be lawless, just an excuse, even if it is a lie, to break and burn things. It is a heart problem, not a problem of given cities or communities.
russell holck says
FRIGGIN ANIMALS AND WE DONT NEED ID’S TO VOTE.///..??? BRING BACK MARSHALL LAW SHOOT THEM DOWN WHEN THEY LOOT..FILL THE OCEANS W/ THERE BODIES AND HELP THE FISH POPULATION..THATS ALL THERE GOOD FOR NOTHING ELSE..!!
mike says
Why is it when a guy is shot and killed these thugs want to burn the city. Why aren’t the blacks going after those thugs and gang bangers in Chicago. Blacks are being killed everyday there. They don’t care about that. It must be okay if a black murders a black. You and guys a hollering black lives matter. If it did you would do something about all the murders in Chicago.
Tweeter says
This is not about a protest within the rights given by the constitution. This is riots, mayhem, rebellions not only only the police officers protecting all of us, but against the white people. For example, a white homeless happened to be around that area was beaten by the blacks just because he is white. Those white reporters were also attacked. What they are now doing are against the law although defended and empowered by Hillary Clinton. They riot, kill police and white people, loot and burn private properties, steal, burglarize and burn police cars. These actions are not within the constitution.
The fact of the matter was after the facts were released showing that the man killed was armed with a gun, and several orders were asked to drop the gun, he did not obey. Many witnesses have seen and heard the events, including the several pictures to be released during the trial.
But you know? The family of the armed man shot is smelling millions of dollars to sue Charlotte, NC, the police department. The taxpayers be ready. There is millions of dollars at stake.
Another example, despite the the Baltimore 6 police officers were acquitted because they were innocent, the family of Freddy Grey was given $5 million dollars and more by the City of Baltimore. It was a Federal money and all taxpayers paid for it.
seygor says
All six police officers were declared innocent most by a Black nudge However they like the police officer in Ferguson will carry an unwarranted stigma for the rest of their lives. The Ferguson police office left the area (wonder why).
So rhe cretins and low life thugs remain unpunished for their crimes and the innocent police officer and the victim business owners are on their own This is justice ?
But the professional rioters did have a good training ground for Baltimore and Charlotte—- and whoever is next
Constitutionalist says
Tweeter-
This is not about a protest within the rights given by the constitution
The Constitution gives nothing; never has, never will.
Those who wrote and ratified it were certain that our Rights are given by Nature and Nature’s God, and no man nor body of men.
The Constitution was written to restrict sworn GOV’T actors from infringing on these Rights, both named and unnamed, in the Bill of Rights.
Read the Preamble to the Bill of Rights(first 10 Amendments), if you can find it; it has been EXCISED from most textbooks in the Public Fool System these days.
Dave says
so this is a protest? trying to kill others. i apologize to all the old hippies. i made fun of. at least,it wasnt this kind of crap.. To protest for peace,evidently means”death and destruction”,now.. well,welcome to martial law you morons. you still cant go around robbing people and pulling guns on cops. and thinking nothing will happen. just because theres a black president. the excuse was white cops killing blacks, evidently it dont matter. they just want to do whatever they want,with know ramifications. play games with our military,now. good luck.

SAVAGES!!!
vernon tracey says
I have no respect what so ever for BLM movement ‘ Nor do I have any respect for Obama ‘ or any other leader ‘ that does not condemn what BLM is doing ‘ If it was a Right To Life Group they would and have used what ever force necessary to stop a peaceful protest ‘ But what I see is a bunch of black thugs ‘ hurting innocent people’ Destroying property’ Stealing stuff that doe’s not belong to them ‘ Blocking our roads scaring the hell out of people ‘ If I had the Authority to stop them’ I would not even allow them on the streets ‘ They are a disgrace to the good black’ peaceful ‘loving people ‘ The same black thugs that I see are the same black thugs that kill their own people at a much greater rate then the police ever have ‘ It isn’t even safe to walk though their own neighborhoods ‘They need to be stopped ‘ I am sick of seeing them get away with all the crimes their committing’ their no better then isis ‘ But we know that’s not going to happen ‘ not when our own President is on their side ‘ He’s part of the problem he’s done nothing but play the race card just like Al Sharpton and cause more division between us Americans then I’ve ever seen’ Shame on you President Obama ‘ and Al Sharpton ‘ and Jessie Jackson ‘ what a shame you all had the power to help the blacks but instead you have all used them for Profit and Political gain alone with the Dem. party ‘ I hope they wake up before the rest of us can never have any respect for them its hard to respect a people that you see Killing’ stealing’ destroying ‘hurting’ burning’ showing no respect what so ever for Authority ‘ Not even their own people .

And you want Hillary as your next president? You can take this times 1,000 and that will be what this country looks like in 4 years. Good grief- vote TRUMP
Guntoter says
With all the footage , clearly showing the face and dress of these RAMPAGING idiots, PAY $100.00 BONUS to ANY one who identifies one of them,immediately upon their arrest and conviction. Easy money for some non working “GIMME SUMPIN FOR FREE” do Nothings.
ch says
This behavior is inexcusable. There is no reason to break into an innocent persons store or home or beat them on the streets. They had nothing to do with the shooting, yet these thugs think they deserve free range to do what they want. Issue a shoot to kill order and stop the madness now. They wonder why they get shoot, listen to what you are told, stop breaking the law, stop looting and rioting.
Wait for the facts to come out before doing YOUR thing because you think you have the right to do so. You have the right to PEACEFUL protest not destruction
Marvin B. Cohen says
These violent demonstrations of tearing up the town raiding Wal-Mart stores breaking into other businesses has nothing to do with anger, sadness, mourning a wrongful death or even so-called police violence. There is no relationship to civic duty. There is no concern for memory or comfort to the deceased’s family and survivors. There is no honor with this violent behavior. It is nothing more than criminal vandalism and theft. It is used as the excuse to go grab “free-Shit” from these businesses. These people sit around drawing welfare, food stamps and other federal, state and local benefits until some flimsy excuse arises to go steal their “free-shit”. When was a white person shot and/or killed by the police cause civil unrest? WHEN? Never! Is this some throw-back to “Jungle-Mentality”? Are other race’s more civil, honorable, smarter, caring about each other than themselves? What happens after the free-shit grabbing is over and order is restored? Insurance premiums are much higher for those businesses’ wanting to stay open. What about the innocent people of other race’ are who are severely injured or murdered by the rioters? Do the dead come back? Is this the throw-back mentality to chucking spears? Is this one of those “BLACK THINGS” which no other people will understand? Is this so? Why do most of these demonstrations take place in their own neighborhoods? As a twenty-two (22) year life member of the NAACP, I do not want to sound racist. I am white, a 100% combat disable Viet Nam Vet and a retired career law enforcement professional. IS THERE A RATIONAL ANSWER OUT THERE? Because, I just do not get it?
Michael Niermeier says
You’ve asked a lot of questions that cannot and will not be answered, but you have opened up a few avenues of facts which I understand and very little folks would dare express. Thanks for a little common sense.
JerryBranson says
I believe it is time to shut this kind of crap down. These are thugs that deserve serious jail time and need to be rounded up and imprisoned.
CJ says
Thought the race riots were a thing of the past. Guess I been living in a glass bubble. Protests like this bring out the worst in people. Here you have thugs beating innocents & breaking into businesses. What in the world is the matter with folks today? Don’t answer that it was a rhetorical question
Southern By Choice says
Any excuse will be used to justify this kind of animal behavior. Don’t have jobs – don’t have a good education?? I thought that integration of the schools was the answer, then it was affirmative action, then more welfare hand outs, housing, food, special rights,and on and on. I have said it before and I will say it again, no one can help anyone if they are unwilling to help themselves. School integration back in the 50’s did one thing – it brought down the education standards for everyone – affirmative action led to unqualified people receiving contracts that ended up in disaster and colleges full of people that had neither the desire nor the ability to compete. Don’t get me wrong, there are some very good African Americans, some of whom I know very well and would rather associate with them than some white people I know, however, these animals are ruining it for all of them – and any hope of getting ahead. Why should businesses move into Ferguson, Baltimore, etc or any inner city, when they know the potential is there to be wiped out, or insurance rates being so high they can’t survive.
female tax payor says
How do you rehab & reprogram the sick, violent ideology of these grim reapers of humanity?
Maggietish says
These thugs beat a man to the ground who was begging for mercy and ye was just an innocent bystander. One person was shot and he’s in critical condition. They shoved a reporter, which was shown on video, to the ground and thought it was funny. They threw another reporter into a fire that they had created trying to kill him. They expressed tgat all white people should die and how much they hated them. They assaulted the police officers, innocent citizens, looted, burned down businesses and somehow feel that people should support their cause. Even if it ends up where there cause is legitimate there’s no excuse for what they’ve done, nothing justifies that. I hope that the people that tried to kill the reporter, beat that poor man to the ground, shot another man, assaulted police and innocent people, shoved another reporter to the ground, looted, destroyed businesses, threatened innocent people were arrested because they certainly should be. I can’t legitimately call these people protesters because protesters wouldn’t do that but thugs would. Now the thugs are going to march on Washington and the Black Caucus has isaid that they will support them. Why isn’t the Black Caucus being held responsible by the same people for why they’re living in abject poverty. Why hasn’t the Black Caucus done something to better their lives and what happened to all the millions of taxpayer money that has been spent to help these people because they’re still living in abject poverty and they need to question the Black Caucus about that and make them accountable. Where is President Obama in all this, he is “again” gravely quiet and has nothing to say. The leader of the free world should be at least asking for peace and asking these thugs to stop the rioting, destruction,, looting, assaults and attempted murder. There hasn’t been this much of a racial divide in the US for 50 years and that’s President Obama’s legacy. He has declared war on police officers throughout his Presidency and that’s why more Americans are buying guns because we have to defend ourselves. One wonders what Martin Luther King would think of all this violence, stealing, looting, assaulting innocent people and attempted murder. My guess is he’s turning over in his grave.

Fox News did not need to pull their reporters out – why not just send Geralda Rivea in – he is such a tremendous arbitor – they could have had the “only” live coverage, and if Rivera got thrown into a fire, no big loss. Cannot stand that hypocrit, who loved Trump as long as he was taking his money on the Apprentice, and was kept on the show longer than he should have been, but when he lost in the final he never got over the dent to his ego. What a joke he is – and not even a good reporter.
TruChristian says
I lost my respect for Geraldo Rivera decades ago, when he led the public on this merry chase to open a safe supposedly retrieved from the sunken “Titanic”, and kept everyone in suspense for several weeks, only to find the safe EMPTY!! What a big fraud. He is an even bigger fool now, as he flip-flops from Clinton to Trump and back to Clinton, with the sorriest of reasons. Whenever he appears on Fox News, I cringe, waiting for whatever inanities he will utter.
Hershell says
Stupid Bastards should be working instead of this shit. HUMVEE with 50 Cal could end this in about 10 minutes. Kill the shit out of them and the rest will go back to wherever they came from. Would be plenty of people willing to volunteer to put a stop to it!!!
Sam Kaner says
Stupid white reporters and people going out there and thinking they can demonstrate with racist black lives matter and nothing is going to happen to them. When the cops leave or aren’t around it gets real ugly. They’re lucky to be alive.
M Hennesy says
We are paying for all of this lawlessness ! These thugs are probably 90% on some government welfare program. If they had to get up in the morning and GO TO WORK they would not be out destroying storefronts and looting and assaulting innocent people at night ! It is time to put serious REQUIREMENTS on any form of public welfare. These women have multiple babies by different fathers and no stable family situation. This is what the DEMOCRATS and liberal Republicans have given us for ALL THE BILLIONS THEY HAVE SPENT ON GIVEAWAY PROGRAMS with no requirements to seek employment or proof you are incapable of working. WE ARE PAYING FOR THIS …and yet our Seniors on Social Security never get a cost of living adjustment …even though they paid into a so called retirement plan. The government STOLE the money from the SOCIAL SECURITY TRUST FUND …TO GIVE TO THUGS LIKE THESE …AND ILLEGALS.
Mike says
I can’t say what I really wanted to say. This people are demon possessed! Being fed lies and being manipulated by everyone around them. They still have a responsibility to fellow humans to respect others and themselves. Goodness, where is our leaders? The president? Congress? I guess that this is what we get for pushing God out? He’s left us to our own devices.
Elizabeth Davis says
First the media starts the rumors by reporting undocumented truths.They need to get the facts straight before they start spouting off their mouths. We need some true reporters that speak the truth and report the truth instead of trying to manipulate everything. If the police were wrong then they need to be punished but if they were in danger they have every right to defend themselves I understand there are rotten apples in the barrel but that includes every one. As far as the person shot maybe he should followed instructions. When stopped by a patrol car I roll the window down, have my drivers license ready along with the insurance on my car. If I am told to get out of the car I get out of the car. and it is yes sir and no sir or mam. As far as the rioters are concerned they are perpetrators of violet crimes. I am sorry to say I hoped that electing a black would help the divide but it has divided it more by his stupidity. When help is needed he is not there but when help is not needed he and Al Sharpton step in to agitate the rioters more. What I don’t understand is why they are blaming the white people when the Police Chief and the policeman that shot him were both black. All This does is give then an excuse to riot, burn,kill, Steal from store and churches in our communities and their own communities. We have thrown good money after bad and it has not helped the communities only made slaves and thugs for the good of the Democratic party to use them for votes. Someone in their communities need to start to work on their own problems in their own communities and teach right from wrong and trying to blame every one else for their problems. Parents need to be parents, not baby daddies and baby mommies. Take responsibility for their actions quite teaching hate and violence I did not enslave your ancestors just as my ancestors were slaves but I don’t blame everyone today. In fact the Irish were treated worse than the blacks The Blacks that have made it out of the Ghetto did it by their boot straps just like everyone else that has made it in this society by working hard getting and education and using it. The people are called names Uncle Toms white nigg etc. What has this generation contributed to the sciences, humanitarian,arts or medicine, almost nothing.There is no such thing as a free handout . Someone has to provide and it is not the Federal Government. It is the working people of this country. And now there has been so much corruption in our Federal Gov, we are so far in debt we can never over come it because there are more people sitting flat of their asses drawing welfare (black and White and illegals) than there are working people. So their is not enough taxes to over come the deficit. What most well fare people does not understand is the money comes from the working people not the Government just as butter does not come from the store it first must come from the cow, (no cow no butter). No working people no money.. Only totalitarian government which controls everything including your rioting,what you eat, how you move, how you work, yes you will work or starve That kind of government does not care about you or I only themselves and we are well on the road to this kind of Government. Paid rioters need to be taken off the streets in any way we can. They will not let the peaceful marchers,protesters, be peaceful they have to start trouble. If everything was not handed to them they would have to work or have no home, no money and not any where to sleep or eat. We must make America not African Americans not Irish Americans, German American or English, Italians etc this is suppose to be the melding pot of the world and one of the best country for freedom in the work but it is slowly becoming a socialist nation which will not last. No socialist country has lasted it goes to a dictator look at Brasil,Venezuela. It is time to pull together to make things right in this country or we are going down. When the Us money is no longer in control of the money world wide and China takes over we will not be be able to print money that is worth anything and our buying power will come to a halt. Then depression

They are all psychopaths and what we are witnessing is a huge psycho party…and they are having a lot of fun!
Mike says
What upsets me more is seeing white looking people in the midst of those rioting as IF the BLACKS would not hesitate to kill them IF the BLM movement gets what they want that is Black Privilege that they say white American’s have. I’m white and I never had white privilege! I saw blacks get a job even when I scored the highest grade on the test for a mailman job, as Affirmative Action gave black persons MORE PRIVILEGE than any white person ever had!
Don says
When laws are broken and mobs form and riot because they don’t get their way and people are beaten and property is destroyed
because of misconceived beliefs shows that force must come into play and the rioters and looters should be shot on sight because they willfully disregard the laws that are in place. When local, state and federal government can’t/won’t enforce the laws on the books, then anarchy will become commonplace. The laws on the books are there to protect the lives and property of the innocent, otherwise vigilantes will spring up and take the law into their own hands because of the ineptness of the authorities in any given place and then the rioters will be the ones asking for police protection when they would not obey the law. That is what the future will look like when laws are trashed and the mobs take over, then blood will be flowing in the streets because of rioters and looters.
TruChristian says
What we are seeing is a backlash from people who have been downtrodden so long, they need to find a reason to focus their anger on, and policemen and white people are easy targets, mostly because of the “politically correct” principles that they have been shackled with. (B TW. I am not white.)
These are young people who roam the streets, jobless and frustrated, slaves of the Democrat government that holds them down with welfare checks and food stamps, and nothing else to look forward to, not even good education. I, by no means, condone their actions. But, these are the “deplorables” and “irredeemables” that Clinton condemns, the very same people that she seeks votes from, only to abandon them later on, if she wins.. She’s an evil spot on our nation. She needs to go! To quote Lady Macbeth in Shakespeare’s play, Macbeth,”OUT DAMMED SPOT”!! Go Trump.
janet says
TruChristian,
What exactly do you mean by “downtrodden”? These people–mostly through their own non-doing–have trodden themselves down into the dirt! Most of them have no one else to blame but themselves. Don’t waste your sympathies on sub-humans.
And remember, it is never a good idea to feed the rats!
Pearl says
Where are the Fx#$ing police when this is happening? We have nothing but a bunch of thugs, only wanting to steal and destroy what other folks have worked hard for. Instead of sending illegals back to Mexico, let’s send all these thugs….I was never a predigest person until all this police shooting and looting started….now I am so filled with angry towards “these type of people”. I blame Obama for everything that is going on right now in America with racism. He is so bad for our country. It’s going to take the right leadership and years to fix what he has created.
Pearl says
Sorry….so mad I can’t spell
Victoria Barrett says
Time for a firm leader who calls it like it is and will surround himself with wise men and woman who will have the ability to follow a problem till it is solved. Not only do we have social problems from within such as racial violence and a plague of political correctness out to destroy us from within but the Golbalist cabal, with George Soros and the Rothchilds as their leaders want to destroy us from beyond our borders. This could be our last chance to push back and preserve the freedoms we all hold to our hearts. America is the last bastion of freedom and if we want to preserve the dreams of our for fathers we must act firm;y and decisively to beat back Socialism and globalism. Even Britain, small though it is realized through bad experiences, how destructive the notion of a borderless country be. Brexit was born. Time to build up our borders, clean out our government of the cronyism and lobby interests that have crippled our institution of laws, institute term limits, Who can do this? A blustery man with bold ideas who is not afraid to stand up and say he is running for president because he loves America and wants to make her great again. Vote American. Vote Donald Trum in 2016 .
John Foreman says
The one constant in all of the Police shootings of civilians, is:
The Civilian has not followed the legal commands of the police officers. The civilian has then perpetrated actions contrary to the legal commands putting the police officers in danger.
Comply with the police’s legal directions and nothing happens. Disobey, then take aggressive actions putting the police in danger and there is a high probability that you will get Shot.
Kendall says
This is what LBJ’s “Great Society” produced. A dysfunctional black population without fathers to give them moral guidance. Ironically, in 1950, black illegitimacy was under 20%, and actually a bit lower than white illegitimacy. Now, it’s 73%. Just goes to show that GOVERNMENT IS THE PROBLEM, and libtards are dangerous morons. Without the two-parent family, you get anarchy. Just what Soros and Obama ordered.
Dianne Duke says
Please everyone, if you want what is best for America, VOTE TRUMP.
Stephen Russell says
Reporter was from CNN, Love it the Leftist Media gets “burned”.
Nice
No he didnt get burned, but commenatary alone.
Frank says
A Forgein Country started spraying there Syrian Rioters with SKUNK Scent and the rioters went away real fast because they smelled so bad. Why havn’t we used this on the Smelly rioters. I would think if it worked for them it will work for us. Skunk Scent spray is available commercialy
Cut off their welfare and food stamps. The riots will come to a fast halt.
Cap'n Kirk says
Its time to call in the national Guard, with live ammunition…This shit has to be stopped, no matter the color of skin… There is absolutely no need for this crap, the guy had a gun, he was threatening police, he go shot.. just like the good boy in Ferguson… all he had was a sammich…
andy says
LOL More CNN guys should be hit ,a black republican
George says
There was a time when North Carolina had a law on the books that allowed the State to declare an individual to be an outlaw. That law allowed anyone in the state to capture or Kill that person without being prosecuted. Wonder if it is still on the books. We could sure take care of some problems that way.
George says
Elizabeth that is a great post.. I agree tat those that want to hyphenate their nationality should return to the country of origin. Are they African-American or are they really Americans of African ancestry. There is quite a difference. If they are Africans first or any other nationality they should return to the country they claim. They were given the same opportunity for an education so they could support themselves but it is easier to be supported. It also gives them free time to loot and destroy other’s property.
It will not be long before we will see the dollar lose at least 40% of it’s value on the world market and the beginning of that depression Mark your calendar . That time when we lose the status of “World Reserve Currency” will occur on September 30th of this year. That is when the world powers are meeting to discuss what is going to be used in the future to replace the dollar.
When this happened to Britain the Pound Sterling lost over 40%.in value and has never recovered.
I fear this country has to endure another 4 years until we reach the bottom, but we will eventually realize w ho we are and then we can become a great nation again. WE have seen Great Britain move out of the EU. That is the first bur there are still 9 more to go. All of this has been prophesied Since it was recorded in Genesis. The Hebrews now occupying Israel now are primarily from the Tribe of Judah. All Jews are of Israel but all tribes of Israel are not Jews. We know that the other 10 tribes of Israel were and are lost from site but will gather back again in the end times. If you wish to know where they are they can be found
in the bible and what is going to happen soon. I could give a long explanation but if you search on, ‘United States and Britain in prophecy’ it will do a great job explaining
Scott Ladd says
I now see this site picks what comments it want to post!
Justin W says
How is injuring or killing innocent bystanders going to bring justice to the man whose death sparked the riots? These people who are carrying out acts of violence need to be held responsible for their actions. The violence committed by the rioters speak to their own evil character. Black leaders need to step in and try to restore peace.
Rick says
How many of these RIOTERS are out of town ** UNWANTED RIOTERS ** . ??????????????????????
Jeanette says
Here we go again. Liberals use the most damaging terminology possible, while conservatives take it as easy as possible on the criminals.
When the protest turned violent, it became a riot, and the protesters became “rioters.” Let’s quit covering for the evildoers; the liberals already do that very well.
BLM = Black Lynch Mob
