Obama Administration Takes Steps To Restore Peace In Charlotte
[guest post by Dana]
After Tuesday’s police shooting of a black man, Keith Lamont Scott, Charlotte N.C. has become a war-zone of violent rioting. According to reports, 44 people have been arrested for not dispersing, breaking and entering, and assault. As a result, Gov. Pat McCrory has declared a state of emergency and called in the National Guard.
President Obama has not publicly condemned the protesters rioters or made any demand plea for them to stop. Instead, the Dept. of Justice is sending “conflict resolution experts” to Charlotte to presumably talk to rioters about how they feel, and one assumes, encourage them to use their words in an effort to understand what makes them try and throw an unconscious person into a burning trash can, assault a news reporter, commit the predictable burn, break and loot of locally owned businesses, injure at least a dozen police officers trying to control the mayhem, and terrorize innocent bystanders caught up in the melee.
The Obama administration’s Justice Department will send conflict resolution experts to Charlotte, N.C., to try to quell the violent unrest over the death of Keith Lamont Scott, a black man who was shot by police Tuesday afternoon
…
The department’s Community Relations Service provides conflict resolution specialists across the nation “to promote peaceful resolution of conflicts and tensions,” according to the DOJ’s website.
“The Community Relations Service is the department’s ‘peacemaker’ for community conflicts arising from differences of race, color, national origin, gender, gender identity, sexual orientation, religion and disability,” the website says.
“CRS is not an investigatory or prosecutorial agency, and it does not have any law enforcement authority,” it notes.
This is what you do when you’ve got nothing else to offer.
Hug it out. That’ll fix everything.
Here is Attorney General Loretta Lynch’s statement regarding the upheaval in Charlotte:
Now, most of the demonstrators gathered last night were exercising their constitutional and protected right to peaceful protest in order to raise issues and create change…

He’s trying to tamp this down without telling the truth, or telling the truth, very carefully, much later, like he did with regard to the Michael Brown case in Ferguson Missouri.
Which was done in such a way that in spite of the Justice Department report, the Michael Brown lie lives on.

BobStewartatHome (a52abe) — 9/22/2016 @ 12:10 pmI’m pretty sure Obama is trying to provoke a full blown race war so he can declare martial law and maybe even postpone the elections.
He’s probably dismayed at white Americas restraint, and wondering what it’s going to take to get the “racist” whites to fight back.
I pray there is no violent pushback before the election, and then President Trump can handle the situation in a responsible manner.
It’s obvious these riots are war against the country(as evidenced by the symbolic protests against the flag and national anthem), and should be met by the national guard in every instance, with EVERY participant rounded up and charged with sedation, and held in a military POW type camp for a few months. Repeat offenders for a few years.
It’s the only way to deal with these barbarians.

DNF (ffe548) — 9/22/2016 @ 2:56 pmIf Obama (OFA) can’t control the BLM racists in Charlotte, potentially giving both Trump and Burr an electoral advantage, then how can he monetize his future and continuing life as a race hustler? BLM is supposed to be the “action” arm of OFA, the friction point which generates the race hustle buy offs which are anticipated to enrich the Race Hustler in Chief beyond January 2017.
If Trump can play his jackass contingent with skill and actually generate turnout commensurate with noise made, then Obama is not only defeated but the Dem demographic model is destroyed. An opening for implementation of the Wisconsin Restoration model is also opened and the legislature (at least the House) is prepared to begin a proper restoration.
It’s almost enough to make the braying of the jackasses endurable.

Deuce Frehley (8afd8b) — 9/22/2016 @ 3:16 pmNo, DNF, it’s not in the least a suing for peace. I will always vote against Clinton but I will never vote for Trump. I refuse to choose between two pieces of excrement on the political sidewalk and I would refuse to do so even if I lived in a battle ground state. I regard your shilling with the same contempt in which I hold Anyprog shilling for Clinton but I do recognize Obama’s lack of control over his disorganization and the opportunity presented by his very fundamental incompetence and I do recognize the advantage of a President LePetomane II (Obama being LePetomane I) wrt to promulgation of a Restoration based upon the Wisconsin model.
Rick Ballard (102f97) — 9/22/2016 @ 3:21 pmThe 2010 Wisconsin restoration also happened because of the slower but definite decline of the Dem State model in Illinois i.e. bussed-in voters that could not be lent to their northern neighbor. Huge decline from Blago 2nd to Quinn to Quinn 2nd (59% to 50% to 46%) over 8 years. Unfortunately, not much change in the state House and Senate.

urbanleftbehind (5eecdb) — 9/22/2016 @ 3:32 pm*correction- Blago had 50% along with 10% going to the green party in 2006, but it still indicative of a swift rightward shift with those Greens rejoining the fold and the Rs gaining some 9.5 % from Dem’s hides for 2010.

Unless her Dr. Bardack can actually document the dissolution of her clot sustained in 2012 blocking her transverse sinus, it still exists and may intermittently be blocking the sinus, the repository of venous collection at the base of the skull.
A number of these MDs have indicated this is a very rare condition, not the result of a concussion, but rather a hypercoagulable condition that treatment with Coumadin cannot reverse only arrest.
All that airplane flight, being seated for hours at a time with blood pooling in her legs, the source of her 1998 clot, readily leads to stroke as emboli are passed thru the circulatory system. Next stop after the legs is the lungs and then the heart and the brain.
Dead meat. Most all of her symptoms can be directly attributable to this clotting.
