Well last night the midnight curfew was ignored by protesters. Police didn't enforce the curfew, though, and apparently things transpired peacefully. I hope it stays that way. If they want to protest, that's fine, just don't use it as an excuse to loot and vandalize. That's all anyone asks.

The problem will continue to be that video evidence doesn't conclusively show him holding a gun. The police say they recovered a gun near his body which had his blood and DNA on it. Family and protesters maintain he didn't have a gun, in essence insinuating that the gun in evidence was planted.

With so much instant information nowadays people need to be extremely vigilant about checking their sources. The sad truth is that most people, even many reporters and news agencies, are not. They want their info NOW, even if it's not accurate. This man's family saw him killed by the cops and posted it all over social media. Can't really expect them to be rational, they just lost their Dad for Chrissakes. But the rest of us have a responsibility to know all the facts before we react, and for many of my neighbors that seems to be asking too much. Welcome to the information age.

I'm more worried about the situation in C-bus Ohio getting out of control when the investigation is done.

Who are you calling racist and ignorant and what does the Boston tea party have to do with anything going on in Charlotte? I'm sure your post made sense to you when you posted it but it loses a bit in the translation.

The fact of the matter is there riots took place prior to all the facts being known. CNN is right now reporting that the police department is going to release the dash cam and body cam videos soon. The fact is that these rioters are not rioting in their own neighborhoods as they did in Baltimore, but instead they rioted in an upscale part of town with shops and hotels and convenience stores being targeted. The fact is random drivers having nothing to do with perceived police violence were targeted, pulled out of their cars and trucks. Additionally, over 70% of those arrested were from out of state, meaning that some of this destruction and mayhem was organized.

Well I can tell you, if I felt victimized or wronged by my government or civic organization I wouldn't go smash my neighbor's windows or loot the store across town.

Keep the blacks distracted by shit like Charlotte and they won't stop to think about what is really the cause of the bulk of their problems. It'll all die down after the election and they've been used up for a few years.

The ghetto googles shouldn't be compared to blacks. The bulk of the google's problems are cultural more than anything. They grow up listening to all this "it's cool to be a gangster" crap, and look where it leads them. of course the Dem's love this because it means googles will readily take hand outs, which secures votes for the dems. America is screwed.

Keep the blacks distracted by shit like Charlotte and they won't stop to think about what is really the cause of the bulk of their problems. It'll all die down after the election and they've been used up for a few years. Quite honestly, I try to look at this as an issue devoid of color, but more of an issue related to the breakdown of the moral fabric of our society... 1) The normalization and acceptance of single parents 2) Mothers with multiple children from multiple absent fathers 3) A social safety net (welfare) that practically incentivizes young women in poverty to have more children to increase the amount of aid they get 4) Lack of discipline in the home brought on by parental absenteeism 5) Poor education due to lack of parental involvement and poor governmental policies related education (lack of school choice) 6) The contraction of religion and it's focus on solid family foundational principles and social mores 7) Generational one party rule in inner cities resulting in a perpetual cycle of a monolithic voting block that doesn't demand positive change from it's elected officials
I could go on and on, but in my eyes the issues all boil down to a slow erosion of our American values over the generations from the 1950s until now, e.g. hard work, family values, respect for authority, respect for other people, respect for the community and most importantly, respect and responsibility for your own personal behaviors and actions.

That's because Black Lives Matter are a bunch of colossal fuckwits who just piss every other bastard off when something happens to a black person, or even if something doesn't, in the case of the UK. They blocked up the runway at Gatwick Airport because there's "racism" in the police here.
