~ This Shooting Appears To Be Everything The Mike Brown Shooting Was Not ~

♦ The Victim’s name is Walter Scott. ♦ He was shot on April 4th by a South Carolina Police officer. ♦ There is a video of the shooting taken by an eye witness – SEE VIDEO HERE (also embedded below) ♦ Arguably without the video the police officer would not have been arrested. ♦ The Police officer, through his attorney, previously said he followed proper procedure. ♦ The video reflects the police lied.

(BACKSTORY) On APRIL 5TH NORTH CHARLESTON, S.C. (WCIV) — The attorney for a North Charleston police officer who shot a 50-year-old man during a confrontation at a traffic stop Saturday says his client believes he followed proper procedure.

The incident began about 9:30 a.m. Saturday when Officer Michael Slager, 33, pulled 50-year-old Walter Scott over for a broken tail light at the corner of Remount and Craig roads.

Police and witnesses say Scott tried to run from Slager before turning to fight for the officer’s Taser. It was during that scuffle that the officer fired his service weapon, fatally wounding Scott.

According to an incident report, officers heard Slager say over the radio that he had deployed his Taser and “seconds later” he said “Shots fired and the subject is down. He took my Taser.”

Attorney David Aylor released a statement Monday that reiterated the police report. (link)

Then the eye witness video was released by the victims family which entirely disputes the substance and construct of the police report. The Police Officer, Michael Slager (33), will be charged with murder. (more…)

She should be embarrassed, but she won’t be.  Her dope carrying son (Marijuana, Ritalin, Hash, etc.) encountered the nicest LAPD officer you could ever image.  Kid was seriously lucky.  I mean seriously lucky….

Taraji P. Henson is an actress who appears on a show called “Empire”. She tried to capitalize on the Martese Johnson narrative , “F**kThePolice”, through the use of her son’s interaction with police in California.

Racial profiling is VERY REAL!!! It has happened to me but to my son more and he is only 20!!! Something needs to be done. #SERIOUSLY

Earlier last week she claimed in a media interview with Uptown Magazine her son was racially profiled by police and abused.

Ms. Henson stated her son was not safe at any college that was not black and she would be sending him to Howard University because it wasn’t safe for a young black man around non-black college campus police officers.

…..“My child has been racially profiled. He was in Glendale, California and did exactly everything the cops told him to do, including letting them illegally search his car. It was bogus because they didn’t give him the ticket for what he was pulled over for.” […] “I’m not paying $50K so I can’t sleep at night wondering is this the night my son is getting racially profiled on campus.”  (link)

However, it appears Ms. Henson and her son are just another couple of race baiting liars.  BIG LIARS.   Thankfully the police had dash camera footage: (more…)

HatTip Gateway Pundit:

CNN is giddy with praise for the Madison Wisconsin response to the Tony Robinson shooting. Their praise comes as a direct result of the professional political class worrying about the delicate sensibilities of the professionally black Grievance Industry.

The “F**k the Police” crowd and the “#Black Lives Matter” crowd are fully engaged to write a very specific narrative of an unjustified police shooting and the professional race-baiters at CNN are more than happy to be their mouthpiece.

However, the current extent to which CNN is willing to obfuscate the facts is arguably even more entrenched than the Trayvon Martin or Mike Brown shootings.

The protesting crowd has now marched to fill the Wisconsin Capitol with their cries of grievance, yet no-one seems to be factually looking -yet again- at the circumstances surrounding the shooting.

Tony Robinson, a convicted armed robbery felon, was assaulting people in the street. He then went inside a building and assaulted the occupants and then the police officer who tried to stop his rampage. (more…)

UPDATE 2: You just knew they’d ID the cop ASAP:

Update:  Here’s the “Angel” last year after his armed robbery arrest:

Oh brother, this police shooting has all the elements needed for the assembly of the BGI, professional agitators, #FTP and #BLM crowd. In addition this shooting carries geographic joy for the race-baiting crews because it took place in über PC correct, Madison Wisconsin.

The geography gives the political left a boost as they will attempt to connect Governor Scott Walker to the shooting incident, and Madison has been the home of some of the more politically correct avoidance of black racial violence.

The narrative was quickly being framed throughout the night as the protesting crowds grew….  the ‘usual suspects’ are pushing the theme on social media…. stay tuned. (more…)

Below you will find video of Attorney General Eric Holder delivering his outline and interpretation of two federal DOJ investigations. The first into Police Officer Darren Wilson regarding the shooting death of Mike brown. The second into the more broad issues around the Ferguson Police Department.

Regarding the investigation of Darren Wilson – AG Holder admits there was nothing found to identify any federal issue with the actions taken by Officer Darren Wilson in the shooting of Mike Brown.

To the contrary, Holder outlines there was NOTHING physically, forensically, or within the statements of reliable witnesses which would support the “hands up – don’t shoot” narrative sold by the media ad infinitum.

So how did they get it so wrong?

Attorney General Holder states as a result of the investigation the DOJ has found there was nothing even remotely accurate about how the shooting was originally reported in the media.

However, Holder transitions into investigation #2 by blaming, and more notably excusing, the disparity based on a toxic level of distrust amid the minority community which caused blacks to believe the outrageous claims put forth by paid professional racist organizers (ie. Anthony Shahid et al) who are active within the community.

Details are very sketchy – however, the story and video is rapidly gaining attention via social media.

A struggle of sorts between LAPD and what appears to be a homeless man. Baton’s flying, and one of the black LAPD officers yell out “he’s going for my gun, he’s going for my gun”, moments later shots ring out. Several observers in the crowd begin to express outrage.

UPDATE: LA Times Weighs in with THIS STORY:

[…] Jose Gil, 38 , said he saw the man swinging at the police and then heard one of the officers say, “Gun, gun, he’s got my gun!” before police fired multiple shots. (more…)

Channeling the same ideology of Al Sharpton, and ending his term as the nation’s top LEO, AG Holder gives an extensive interview to Politico outlining his desire to lower the standard of proof to bring federal civil rights charges.

Eric Holder was discussing the Trayvon Martin shooting incident as he gave his ideological assesment that it should be easier to target non-blacks, vis-à-vis George Zimmerman, who defend themselves against black attackers.

Previously Holder argued for, and gained, the removal of school discipline for black violations of school behavioral policy – using the controversial legal auspices of “disparate impact“. Apparently Holder wants to apply the same ideological approach toward what he defines as civil rights violations.

Politico […] “I think that if we adjust those standards, we can make the federal government a better backstop — make us more a part of the process in an appropriate way to reassure the American people that decisions are made by people who are really disinterested,” he said. “I think that if we make those adjustments, we will have that capacity.”

WASHINGTON STATE – Police who shot and killed a man accused of hurling rocks at officers in southeastern Washington are drawing criticism from as far away as Mexico.
The death Tuesday of orchard worker Antonio Zambrano-Montes is the fourth fatal police shooting since last summer in Pasco, an agricultural city of 68,000 people about 215 miles southeast of Seattle. It has sparked protests after witnesses said he was running away when he was shot in a busy intersection.

Mexico’s Foreign Relations Department on Thursday condemned the shooting of the man raised in that country. Washington Gov. Jay Inslee said he was monitoring the situation.
[…]  Franklin County Coroner Dan Blasdel, whose office was conducting an autopsy on Zambrano-Montes, said he was considering convening an inquest jury to look into the death. (more…)

[…]  State Attorney Phil Archer later released a statement saying that: “the subsequent recantation by the victim of her initial statement along with new documents provided by the victim and her attorney precludes my office from proceeding further.” (link)
