He is a convicted criminal -- served six years for shooting a man

Just to add: THE OFFICER IS ALSO BLACK!

Racism is so systemic, but even blacks love killing blackz.

+1.

The police simply did their job.

That there are "protests" around this is absurd.

As is the wife's behavior, btw. Why did she still live with him? Why was she taping like a maniac instead of helping? Why did she lie insisting he had no gun?

The other cases you brought up were travesties. But the one with Scott weakens the point.

And this is not the first time it happens. Or the second time. Or the third time.

BLM is built on lies and paranoia.

Yes, we need a serious work to prevent and deal with police brutality. But BLM is only Making Things Worse.

BLM should be renamed MTW.

If it was the tea party committing these acts of violence instead of BLM, you can bet the reaction from the media and government would be much different.

Stop dragging his name through the mud. He was just a poor innocent guy with a history of violence against his wife and child. Why are there riots about Mr. Scott?? He was not some straight laced person that had a run-in with the police out of nowhere. Does the life of the black cop who shot him matter also? Do criminal lives matter?

please, stop feeding the troll. thank you.

He was armed and police had to go in the house .

Hmmm. culmination of fatigue and frustration from seeing this crap like this happen over and over and over again.

My post above. Just be glad the MCPD didn't shoot or we might be seeing Charlotte in MD. There were protests about the guy who was shot as he decided to ram his motorcycle into a police car. Perhaps the carjacker home invader armed with a gun didn't point the gun at cops.

Just wondering on who pays for damage to the house. Cleaning? Homeowners?

That's your opinion. Congratulations you're human.
Guess what - the people fed up and frustrated and compelled to lash out after this latest tragedy that occurred in their city are human too.
Was it premature?
Was this particular case a "poor choice" to take to the streets over?
Sitting here in the comfort of a relatively peaceful city with the benefit of hindsight, yeah, I'd say they got a little too carried away too fast.
But then again I don't live in Charlotte. I don't know what type of environment their city was already in with regard to community/police relations prior to the shooting.
I don't know if black people there were already fed up frustrated and ready to riot even before Keith Scott got killed - they very well may have been.
This case could have simply been the final straw of numerous incidents that have been occurring for some time that have had the black residents of that city fuming with anger already.
I don't know.
I do know that the type of anger and emotion that results in riots isn't instantaneous or impromptu.
It takes a lot for people to reach that boiling point and evidently the blacks in Charlotte reached it.
