blaming the police in any way. Even if she doesn't Fox and the other right wing outlets are going to say she did. She has nothing to gain with the black vote and it will only light a fire under more whites to vote for Trump.

cops always getting blamed when they shoot an AA. I hear that every day, according to their way of thinking
the AA think they should able to do anything with no consequences and it gives them an excuse to lute and burn down stuff.
I hear this every day since this area must be like 90% Trump supporters among whites..

Charlotte has but I think the visit will be good for the city and for her.

Fox and RW and the deplorables will damn it no matter what she says or does.

We are hurting here. None of our local politicians seems up to the leadership part. I am grateful that SOMEONE gives a shit about us. It is presidential and appropriate.

Plus, the national Dems are always here in Charlotte pushing for our votes. We are demographically and electorally a key area for them. We have put out big time for them in the past. We need them and they need us. The black vote here WILL sit out if this isn't addressed. You have no idea how pissed and upset everyone is here right now. Charlotte is a Democratically controlled city and our local Dems seem to be doing fuck-all to get anything resolved. This is the right thing.

All she is going to say is to release the f'ing police video of the incident. That is ALL anyone has been saying. Release the video. That is not anti-police. That is pro-transparency.
