![NAACP President: ‘It Doesn’t Really Matter if [Keith Lamont Scott] Had a Gun’](https://www.truthandaction.org/wp-content/uploads/2016/09/shooter_had_gun_naacp-680x365.png)
Protests erupted in Charlotte, NC this week after reports surfaced that Keith Lamont Scott, an unarmed black man, was shot and killed by a local police officer while he was reading a book in his truck.
Unfortunately, almost none of the “facts” in the initial report were true. The man was not shot while in his truck, he wasn’t reading at the time, and he was holding a gun.
But none of this seemed to matter to the rioters in Charlotte, the riots had already begun and showed no indication of stopping due to the revelation new evidence, and that’s not entirely surprising. We’ve learned from past Black Lives Matter riots that these “demonstrators” rarely care about police brutality. Instead, it’s an excuse to cause chaos and loot local business.
One would think that the head of the Charlotte NAACP would at least care if the man was armed. Alas, not even he seems interested in what actually happened.
Watch his stunning statement on the shooting on the next page:
Yes it does
Time to get a new NAACP get rid of racist and put level headed Black Americans. In
Their place !
Fuckyuor dumbass!!!!!!!!! Honkey
You pull a gun out and there’s a cop telling you to put it down smart thing is to put it down but my thought is why would even pull it out unless you are going to use it that’s how I was taught you pull it you point it you use it period not hard to remember cop don’t know what’s in your mind he is thinking about going home it only takes one second and that’s his life you think about that and then put your self in that spot easy to play arm chair quarterback but not in the real world some people are just moronic loser’s
it does matter, scott had a gun in his hand, he did not follow orders to drop the gun. officers have a right to defend themselves, since they dont know if mr. scott was going to fire the arm at them. more than half of the african american male killed, is because they put themselves in situations that have caused their death. looking back at the situations, one can see, where these male black americans are themselves to blame for their stupidity,
now here is one crazy one and delusional too
SURE IT DOES ALL YOU people want is anarchy
the truth is all that matters
Is going to matter to you, went Trump make president.
