Not even close to what I'm saying. How does a situation like that end without a fatality, but these situations always end in a dead body? Is it a difference in training? Proximity?

 

These situations always end in a dead body? Or you mean the ones you read/hear about? Do you believe every shooting involving LEO's makes national news?

He probably thinks the cop was white.

I mean that is a true racist. Blame a white guy for what a black guy did.

Can someone post the police officers prior convictions so we can see what we're dealing with.

They already stated that they recovered a gun.

 

Chief simply said the video does not confirm that a gun was pointed at the officer who shot the victim. Chief says the totality of the evidence, however, supports the shooting.

 

Family is seeing the video today. Not sure what they're going to get out of it based on the comments by the chief. They will still question the shooting.

 

If the family doesn't see enough or they say the video has been tampered with, where are we then??

Back to more of what's going on anyway.

No one wants to think their family is at fault.

Your not missing anything unless you don't see the ignorance in the brothers statement, which I know you do.

I would ask them to prove that the deceased was reading a book, waiting on his kid to get home from school. Since that's what they said he was doing.

I think this is the right thing to do for the family, but based on what the chief said I'm thinking this takes a step backward.

 

They are very firm on the book and the son getting picked up, I don't see a dark/blurry video changing their minds.

 

With the guard in place, I don't see the riot getting out of hand tonight.

I'm with you completely. As far as things getting out of hand tonight, the only way that happens in my opinion is if the Guard isn't allowed to do what they were called in to do. Those dudes don't take well to violence being projected in their direction. They would have to be told to stand down for them to not just start rounding up and arresting rioters.

Shocked they did not call for a curfew. Why don't these protests occur during the day?

More: After watching videos showing Keith Lamont Scott shot by Charlotte, NC, police, Scott's family 'again has more questions than answers,' family's attorneys say; 'When told by police to exit his vehicle, Mr. Scott did so in a very calm, non-aggressive manner. While police did give him several commands, he did not aggressively approach them or raise his hands at members of law enforcement at any time. It is impossible to discern from the videos what, if anything, Mr. Scott is holding in his hands. When he was shot and killed, Mr. Scott's hands were by his side and he was slowly walking backwards.' - NBC News

Which must be why they arent making it public.

 

Not looking good for the officer
