CMPD's 2 For One Sunday

The first shooting happened around 1:30 a.m., Sunday, July 24, at the 3400 block of Queen City Drive near I-85.

"Deputies say they responded to a person shot call, and upon arrival, officers found a victim with a gunshot wound." (You have to laugh at WCNC where its amateur hour every day)

Medic rushed the patient to Atrium Main, where they were pronounced deceased around 2:00 a.m. (I guess the non gender pronouns require the use of they but it implies more than one)

WSOC isn't much better reporting on the second Sunday homicide.

"Someone was killed in a shooting Sunday night in northwest Charlotte, an official said."

Can you imagine a CMPD PIO saying "someone was killed"? Official what? Postal worker?


CMPD officers said they responded to a call for one person who had been shot off Thomasboro Drive near Bradford Drive. 
The shooting victim was pronounced dead at the scene.

Then there is the standard: "Officers said the shooting does not appear to be a random act of violence and they are not searching for suspects at this time".

“The message to the community is the detectives, the officers on scene, crime scene, everyone is doing their best right now. As far we are concerned, the block, the street, everything is safe right now,” Major Jackie Bryley said.

This is CMPD’s second homicide of the day. Someone was shot and killed in west Charlotte early Sunday.

Let's face it local news media is terrible. They love the cliché' "Shots Rang Out" and "Behind Bars" and "On the loose".

And while the news reporter saying "Killed Dead" is classic, one local news anchor has a habit of saying "at 7:00 a.m. in the morning".

Others that are said every day across Charlotte's broadcast media spectrum:

“Flee” meaning “run away”

“Good” or “bad” news

“Youth” meaning “child”

Aftermath

Authorities

Completely destroyed, completely abolished, completely finished or any other completely redundant use

Definitely possible

Fatal death

Gunman, especially lone gunman

Lucky to be alive (aren't we all?)

Manhunt

Senseless murder (as if there are sensible murders)

Sketchy details

Sources say . . .

Untimely death (is there ever a good time?) 

The robbery went terribly wrong (ugh!)

Oh give me a break no reporter ever said KILLED DEAD!

You must have never watched the trainwreck that is Charlotte TV news. 5 networks, multiple hours of programming and Charlotte is usually stop 2 or 3 on a reporters ride to 'the show'. We get people who have been in Florence (SC or AL), Greensboro, and Myrtle Beach hoping to make it to the networks. They are trained in J Schools that turn out people qualified for newspapers, except newspapers died in the last century. You get hired by looks and emo fit. Pretty white girl, nice figure, great teeth, you have a chance. Black female with a name you can pronounce, you are on camera guaranteed. Black male: well you better be effeminate because they need someone to fill the alphabet quota.
White male: no chance, except maybe the weatherman.

Are the on scene reporters still wearing masks, even though they are yards away from the nearest person? Speaking of clueless, Molly hasn't asked hard hitting questions that deep since she asked Kerr to put some handprints on her rear.

Modern journalism is completely about being PC. How about someone in Charlotte digging deep into Tepper's mess? Multiple execs quit, he pulls out of projects in RH and Charlotte, fires a head coach mid season. Hires a man to dress as a lady to cheer. And he's going to ask all of you to pay for his next stadium...but at least he hasn't made a pass at a female associate, I guess.

I guarantee you Tepper hasn't made a move on a woman since his mother tossed him in the playpen. Can't wait for his selfie with Vi Lyle at this years Pride Parade!

CMPD now saying that there have been 200 auto thefts in the last two weeks I think that works out to 100 a week 5200 a year. Sorry to tell you but the damn niggers are out of fucking control because they know nothing is going to happen to them.

That is so uncalled for. You and I both know this is not on race. Heck, the big chase this month was a white male and female. If Charlotte just had a vibrant PAL like back home, these kids would not be out joy riding. Society has so many pressures on these young kids. They see the pop culture and their neighbors driving fancy cars, and with today's lack of access to high paying jobs and hopeless job prospects for the underclass lead to summers where young men go out and do what boys always do....break rules and have fun. We all have insurance for auto theft.

With a number that high, are we sure this isn't some insurance fraud scheme? It seems suspicious that this falls right on the heels of PPP loans fading away. Seems like a good way to cash in on insurance when you can't afford the Bimmer payment. Just saying, someone needs to check the story behind the story. Back home lots of cars got dumped in the Cooper River on the Camden side in Jersey that were folks who got in over their heads with someone or something.

259, dude you are so dumb. We are in a recession and these people don’t have jobs or cash. They break into everything.

RIP Jesse Mobley aka Takeoff. Such a wonderful member of society, you’ll be missed terribly!

Numbers don't lie. 66 murders every one of the committed by Blacks with the exception of 2 by Hispanics and one Asian. Lock them all up. Let them out in 30 years.

Noogies are just an unfortunate subspecies of the human race. Everywhere you look they are attacking each other, Disney World, Popeyes, NYC Subway, Highschool, Charlotte Airport, Cats Buses. You pick the location and they are either thieving or killing or beating on each other.

If you put 200 of them on a cruise ship and set sail with no law enforcement and a shit load of weed and liquor and gave everyone a gun in a month they'd all be dead.

Noogies just a waste of genetics.

8:03. Can’t say I disagree with you. There is a certain demographic that acts like complete animals and then companion about things like implicit bias when we treat them as such. If 13% of a population contributes to 85% of crime and prison population, you can’t blame us for being a little guarded around “you people”. You people = Black People There. I said it.

The sad thing is there are so many great people who just happen to be black. But until those who don't act like savages and caged monkeys start speaking out and condemning those who commit crimes rather than remaining silent like Vi Lyle this will never change.

We need to stop the driving while black bullshit. That endless media spew of "disproportional policing" needs to end now. CMPD stops ten times the number of "Noogies" vs white folk because ten times the Noogies are breaking the law. Deal with it and Vi Lyles you need to own it.

I am reaching out to Councilor Winston this morning. This is the most racist White Supremist thing one can imagine, here, in Charlotte, in 2022. Something has to be done about this hateful and inciteful hate speech.

Yes, something needs to be done about driving while Black...stop pulling Black folx over! I guess your training wasn't good enough to realize your own bias causes these interactions. Wes Kerrick killed a man because you all think everyone Black is up to no good. When you keep doing these things, we are trained to know that 5-0 means no good for us. I know not one Brother or Sista who has had a single positive interaction with the police. Maybe when we have a true Peace Force, we can change that.

As for the hardened criminals you keep posting here, we are all innocent until proven guilty, and I don't see that many convictions here in Charlotte. When I do, it's for someone trying to make some paper selling drugs to your low life daughter or uncle.

7:46 you have fallen out of your tree far too many times.
The reason your black ass was pulled over was because the tag on your car was reported stolen and your brake lights don't work. You ran a red light and you were left of center twice. Its 2 AM and you are on Sugar Creek driving 55 in a 35.

I have no idea if you are Asian, Mexican or a Noogie or some white drunk college girl but your ass is getting lit up!

So upon approaching your car, which smells like weed I notice your window tint is as black as your face. You give me and my back-up a bunch of shit while you hoe keeps sticking her cellphone in my face. When you finally give me your real name it turns out you have no warrants but when my back-up asked the rear passenger for an ID he jumps and runs into the woods.

Now your black ass and your hoe are cuffed and stuffed and all the while you're yelling about your rights and that I'm slaving you.

The gun in the back seat is stolen and you claim you don't know nothing. The weed is more than a few baggies and the techs tell me its nearly a pound.

The car you stay belongs to your brother who doesn't exist. Your hoe decides she's not going to be searched by the female officer who has arrived on scene so now she's face down in the gutter after being tased twice.

She has warrants and is now in the back of a medic unit.

Does any of this sound familiar?

Noogies gonna just be Noogies. In 2001 the AA pop of Charlotte was 18% now its over 30% because bus loads of these low life have moved here from Baltimore and DC just like DC Foster. They moved here to get away from the crime and violence only to invite their thug friends to come on down! Time to start cracking skulls and bring the jump out boys back. Time to get some!

You know, just wait. One day, I'm gonna get tired of the police action against all of us Black and Brown, sell my place, and move to Wesley Chapel or somewhere out there just to live right next door to you all too. Invite all my peeps over for a barbeque, use the front yard for the adults, backyard for the kids, and see how you all like having to accept that WE are as equal as you, no matter how hard you want to deny it.

Noggie you ain't going anywhere. First those Brown people you speak of hate your lazy ass. Second only a Noogie would have a party that annoyed the neighbors spilled out into the front yard and ended with gunfire. Finally Wesley Chapel is in Union County and they don't take kindly to home boys with stolen tags and outstanding warrants. In other words your shit might not stink in Charlotte but cross the line outside of your sanctuary city and you're expected to obey the law not just some of them.
