Second night of protests in Charlotte, N.C.
Man is shot, gravely injured.
I saw the picture of him on the ground.
I read of the people that surrounded him, before he was taken away in an ambulance.
The next link that I saw, announced that he had died.
This breaks my heart.
A state of emergency has just been declared.

Must not have been a cop or white male (could be asian/latino they are white when they need to be because not real minorities).

City of Charlotte Twitter took it back, from who posted the death of a protester
They do say that he is on life support, and he is in critical condition.
"Not deceased"
gsgs comment-
He could be dead. I would expect the city to keep another death quiet.
The city is a tinder box of hurt, anger and pain.
Why throw gasoline on a fire that is burning ?
Belief perserverence
Belief perseverance is the tendency to cling to one's initial belief even after receiving new information that contradicts or dis- confirms the basis of that belief.
Why does my belief conflict with new information ?
Experience. Lies help the police.
Truth does not always win.

And the hypocrisy that incites my anger?
The people labeling "those people" were the very ones with their tits hanging out, smoking a joint, crying over Viet Congs.
Sometimes, it takes enough angry people to incite change.

I saw video of a guy in a car trying to pass protesters who were blocking the street, so he pulled out a gun. I'm surprised it didn't escalate.

Those are not mutually exclusive. A riot is a method of protest. A shitty method, but none the less.

Get used to it, it's the new norm. Don't like something that happens ? Go out and start a riot. It's Social Justice in action.

Much of the urban plight is due to the loss of inner city jobs, which were in large part manufacturing or manufacturing related. AA communities were hit hardest by those middle class job losses .
It's ironic that the guy who has the best chance to help them is the one they will not be voting for. Hillary has along history of supporting trade deals which export good paying American manufacturing jobs.
