There has been a lot of commentary on the farce of a debate brought to the USA public by the corporate controllers. And a lot of people who either boycotted it, or plain refused to make themselves ill watching it. I tried to watch it after the real debate, which was watched by a bit less than 2000 people who followed the City Council meeting in Charlotte, NC.

I have been tuned into the Charlotte protests from the beginning through local TV (NBC affiliate) live stream and Facebook and Twitter feeds from protesters. Sunday night, for example the protesters were herded by militarized riot police, bicycle police and heavily armed National Guard on to the sidewalk, and ultimately into the Black neighborhood where the police and National Guard vanished.

Is this what democracy looks like?

Last night, starting at about 6:30 PM, and the NBC feed being abruptly cut at 9 PM, the City Council the auditorium was full of people from the protests, all speaking their thoughts and experiences for 90 seconds each.

Most of the nearly all white Council sat there scratching their asses, looking bored and as if there was a bad smell in the auditorium. Early in the meeting nearly all of them left the room until (I suppose) some sharp cookie realized if they left the room in control of the protesters the protesters (as any revolutionary movement would) would just sit down in the Council seats, declare themselves the new interim city council and continue the meeting. Leading to riot police creating a new riot...

OK! The speeches clearly demonstrated the real, core painful problems in urban areas as experienced by POC and poor whites, and were accompanied by specific demands and solutions. Unlike the later 9PM Trump/Clinton "debate" of the living dead bore-fest, I found myself cheering, stamping the floor and shouting out "No Justice, No Peace", "Amen" and cheering.

This morning I was hoping to find the live feed from the NBC affiliate on you-tube or wherever so that I could share it with everyone who wasted their time either listening to the bore-fest or pointedly boycotting it. Unfortunately, it hasn't happened.

Here we can see the list of demands which I heard last night:

Set of Ten Demands

The first three of ten I quote here because this is the kind of stuff we should be debating.

1. The immediate end to the state of emergency, curfew and the removal of the National Guard.

2. The immediate demilitarization of the police department and the immediate return of all military equipment.

3. The defunding of the police department (2017 budget: $246,644,617) and the redirection of those resources to the needs of our communities (including resources for jobs programs, affordable quality housing, transportation, holistic health and quality schools).

Added to this is the demand for the mayor, chief of police and most of the City Council members to resign.

The mainstream media this morning was quite selective of the portions of the 90 second speeches given by the protesters. Nevertheless, the only footage I can find is the tipid watered down version on the Charlotte morning news report. I am asking some people in Charlotte if they can find a source or demand it get released by the city. So to give you a bit of flavor of the real debate I am embedding the news report until I find the entire thing. And some selected screen captures.

"Our fathers and mothers are being killed and we can't even see them anymore."

Are the police being exposed to any kind of diversity training? And being questioned about how the feel about different kinds of [racial] issues?

"As a mother I can imagine how it feels to be afraid everytime your child goes out. I honestly feel that I would be in a rage if I had to feel that way all the time."

And this is the MSM watered down version of what was said for two and a half hours. Tugs on the emotions for sure but in the end MSM message is, "Vote for Clinton and everything will be all right".

Later in the evening, in a pouring rain, while America was being lulled to sleep by two white supremacist corporate puppets in a "debate" which featured Donald Trump's sniffling versus Hillary Clinton's uncontrolled eye problem, riot police smacked down on the protesters, arresting somewhere between 4 (MSM) and over 20 (live feeds from the scene). During the week an undisclosed number of people posting twitter and Facebook feeds have been arrested.

And this morning they announced that no further protests would be allowed without a permit. That means more martial law, more smack downs, more pulling over vehicles and waving guns in motorist's faces for broken taillights...

Don't be distracted by the debate about "The Gun"... or "It was an emotional meeting" etc. It is typical MSM covering up the real, deep sickness of the USA' systemic white supremacy.

If I can find the whole NBC feed I will post it (so far no luck). And I thoroughly expect that anyone who boycotted the debate will want to watch.

Thank You.
