![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:
In the South we are taught from birth pretty much, that the right way to address anyone is with these words, each as important as the other…PLEASE, THANK YOU, YOU’RE WELCOME AND YES MA’AM, NO MA’AM, YES SIR AND NO SIR…. NOW….DID THAT HURT…
uhhhhhh ok
If people want act like thugs they want get shot
NO WHAT MATTERS IS THIS!!! When are carrying a gun, LEGALLY it matters how you conduct yourself. If that gun stays holstered when you are engaging LEO’s they are not as likely to shoot you than if it is in your hand. This seems to be such a HARD CONCEPT for these black people to grasp!!! By THESE BLACK PEOPLE, I mean all the ones who have been killed by cops. DROP THE GUN is probably the BEST WAY to not get shot!!! I just don’t understand why this is so hard of a concept to understand???
Just do what police tell you and, for the media, get the facts right and quit publishing every inflammatory word a stupid person says!
Yes it ds
Go sick an egg NAACP!! Don’t confuse a bowling ball with your own eggs though! Lol$#%&!@*OFF NAACP!!
Comply with the police
Are you nuts?
Then we would have a dead officer not a dead criminal for breaking the law
He was a convicted felon and not allowed to have a gun
You all were funded by Soros 70% of the blacks were bused in funded by Soros yah know who should pay Obama, Hilary, BLM, and Soros!
