Not Charlotte, but Ferguson residents aren't doing so well:

Maybe the police should pull out of those communities altogether. I wonder what will happen then? What will Black Lives Matter's response to that be. |

Looting, of course. |

I don't get it. Black folks have been fighting segregation for years yet now a group of them want's to segregate themselves again! WTF! They fight to be equal and when they achieve that they're not happy! Ofcourse they say they are not equal but as mentioned before, many of them get special treatment in hiring etc.

Well, yes. I'd argue that those are deliberate political actions.
I can say, fairly confidently that race has nothing to do with an individual's potential and etc. etc.
It's keeping them on the plantation, the welfare laws, and deliberate propaganda, for generations.
The current culture is a a product of the deliberate laws and propaganda.
The paid agitators are executing the agenda.
To create, then exploit. |

Fencing them in with no LEOs and no first responders would certainly be an eye-opener... |

to Whom? Certainly not anyone with any honest sense. The city would burn.
Totally unfair to abandon the majority of folk just because a minority of evil men want more power.
Hypocritically Hypothetically, if say, Jeb Bush was president, and agreed to withdraw the forces of civilization from a ghetto in response to a plea from the evil folk involved?
Would his moral responsibility be any different than if he ordered random artillery strikes on the ghetto?

If this article is true, the NAACP is saying the policeman who did the shooting is not "really" black.

I don't condone fencing the area. However for the sake of argument, if all "white people" were removed and black people still died...would it still be a case of BLM? Essentially that's what they're doing with the looting and rioting; isolation would only serve to drive that point home.
If anyone was paying attention. |

One thing I just don't get is the blocking of traffic.
As soon as something like that happens in front of me, I'm moving forward at 10 miles per hour with the horn held on.
Why are people not willing to just keep rolling at a slow but deliberate pace?
God help them if they attempt to break a window on my truck and endanger my kids!

It's on in San Diego.
There probably will be a case where a victim of mob violence shoots a couple assailants from his car out the broken windows, then he or she will be torn apart.
What I'm also afraid will happen is some one will put up a barricade on the street to their hood and when the riot proceeds towards it, will open fire on the mob.
Then they ban guns, and the police will be ordered to fire upon citizens defending themselves. |

Natel, that happened pretty recently when the mobs stopped traffic. A lady in her suv talked to the police and they walked away. She gently pushed her way through the crowd, while they damaged hey SUV. The police arrested the ones that damaged the SUV.

Well, according to Google....
"As of December 1, 2011, citizens of North Carolina had the legal right to defend themselves with deadly force in their homes, vehicles and workplace without the “duty to retreat.”
If you're in Charlotte, you have the right to defend yourself with deadly force in your vehicle.
How do you feel about warning shots? They've not been authorized for service members falling under ISAF as it's dangerous and might kill someone (really? someone doing something stupid might die during a time of war?) (luckily, not all SM's in Afghanistan fall under ISAF)
I've also seen videos of Spetsnaz during live-fire training shooting warning shots just feet in front of the opfor's feet... |

I've got complete respect for Russian tactics. I've taken a year of Systema classes, which was REALLY interesting.
I've also done some FoF gunfighting.
We have stand your ground in Ohio as well. My thoughts are to avoid violence when I can, but if you block an interstate... Any reasonable person would expect to be hit by a car.
With felony accomplice laws, wouldn't the people blocking traffic be held responsible for the death of their own? |

Oh, come on, Court! You know that the News Media has a Sacred Trust to report the News honestly, accurately and without bias. They keep telling us that, so it must be true. |

The fun part is that when they are told to report . . . as in the case of the Clinton talking points last week . . . and 4 papers, widely scattered about the country, "independently" report nearly identical headlines.
The American media is pretty much on par with the comic books from the days I was young . . . they are dreaming and writing about wonderful fantasies with only passing, incidental relation to facts.
But . . . with most the media being akin to a National Observer . . . it's more fun to read.
We live in a day when a "nip slip" at the Super Bowl is news and $1,400,000,000 in small bills, delivered to an arch enemy, is "gossip and innuendo". |

I think Robert A. Heinlein predicted this back around 1940. He called it "The Crazy Years" |

It was actually $1.7B to Iran. |

I read "1984" back in about 1984 and again in 1989.
I just finished listening to the unabridged audio version today.
I had forgotten how prophetic it is. |

Just watched a BBC clip on Aleppo.
"We are sorry to have to edit this but the pictures are too horrific. We regret we can't show you the true picture of this war". paraphrased by me.....
I trust BBC over all the other news outlets.
