hello, everyone. it's 5:00 in new york city and this is "the five." the national guard is activated in charlotte after north carolina's governor declared a state of emergency following two nights of violent riots. charlotte is bracing for a third night of protests. hopefully, the extra manpower will keep things under control tonight. it all ignited after the fatal

police shooting of a black man that police still maintain was armed with a gun. it was chaos in the streets of charlotte last night. steve harrigan was in the middle of it all. >> reporter: we are seeing tear gas as well as rubber bullets into the crowd. this is more out of control than ferguson. this is a pitch battle between police and protesters that's gone back and forth for a long period of time. i'm seeing scenes here that the last time i have seen them were on the west bank, the back and forth between israelis and palestinians with tear gas. that's what we are seeing here in charlotte, north carolina. >> steve is on the ground. he joins us now. thank you. this video, it's all about this video it feels to me, the video that allegedly -- will show whether or not mr. scott was armed or not, whether he was holding a gun or not. the lawyers for the family said they had not viewed the video, about an hour ago. the fact that they talked to the

people, the people of charlotte, has that calmed the tone a bit? >> reporter: i don't think things have calmed down at you will. up and down the street where we saw the riot last night, we are seeing similar scenes. people preparing for possible violence. hotels and merchants pulling out the glass, replacing what was shattered last night or putting in plywood or osb board to protect. that's what's going on now. at the height of the violence last night, we saw 800 people. i have to tell you, i think a lot of those people out there last night were not listening to lawyers and don't care whether the man who was killed by a police officer was holding a book or a gun. they are angry. they want revenge. they attacked the police last night. they said they will be back again tonight. we will see whether that stronger police presence will slow things down tonight or not. >> any news on when the family is going to actually see it and when they're going to let the public see it? >> reporter: the family -- the lawyers for the family said they

were too traumatized to speak to the media today. there's been two real sources of information throughout this conflict, very different sources. on the one hand, you have the police and public officials giving one version of events. on the other hand, you have a range of people, including some protesters, going on social media giving a different version of events. we have seen different things like a young man was shot last night during the protest. police saying it was civilian on civilian shooting. the people who were running from that shot saying police fired the shot. two different narratives depending who you listen to. officials and police or social media. more direct reporting, some of it reckless. >> we were wondering, you are seeing the protests in charlotte. not so much in tulsa. why is that? is it because it's easier to get to charlotte for activists or protesters? i don't know. >> reporter: it's a good question, because you would think on the merits of the case and the reason to protest, the

situation in tulsa might lend itself more to the protesters. they might have more weight of truth on their side than in this case where it looks like the man killed did have a gun, did have an arrest record. you had three officers present and officials say he posed an imminent threat. why it's happening here and not there is tough to say. it's hard to predict what's going to happen. we saw it ebb and flow last night. there's ten people out on the street. then there's 800 people. one thing did not turn them back last night was tear gas. that's what we have seen since ferguson. these protesters, the ones here last night, were organized and determined. flash bang grenades, mace, rubber bullets did not turn them back. they kept regrouping. they wanted more. they wanted to fight the police. they were out in force last night. >> i have a question in terms of the response. obviously, there has to be an adequate measure of public safety concern here for businesses, people around in that area to be able not to be

held hostage in their homes because of fear of violence. what is the plan specifically from the police department to try to curb this back so it's not a third night? >> reporter: when you talk about being held hostage, that's literally what happened on highway 277 around the city. protesters were out on that highway. people were terrified in their cars. the chief of police said, lock your doors. help is on the way. that's not too encouraging. i think if you had to summarize the police response last night, it was completely botched. they didn't have enough officers on the street. protesters time and time again gained the upper hand. it took four hours to clear four blocks where i'm standing right now. they said it's not going to happen again tonight with the national guard, with the governor, with a state of emergency. we will wait and see. it got ugly after dark the last two nights. it seems normal right now. that could change quickly. >> i wanted to follow up on that. i'm curious what you are hearing about the cooperation between city officials and the state.

between the mayor and governor, we know that was certainly a concern. other locations, where there have been protests before. there's a struggle, sometimes between those two, because a mayor doesn't want the governor to step in. he feels like he or she has a responsibility to do so. >> reporter: i think the final result that there was a failure is clear. the governor said he has offered additional assets. it seemed like the mayor was reluctant to take those. put the blame on her security advices. it seems like you would err on the side of caution, on the side of having too many forces and try to ramp down. that's not what happened. by allowing the demonstrators to take control of the street for four hours, it gave them confidence and time to regroup and increase their numbers. it put the police who were out here all night in a very tough position. there weren't a lot. they couldn't make arrests. they were getting beer bottles thrown at their heads.

three hospitalized. a tough position for the police on the street last night. not enough numbers. it was clear. that's been admitted by the chief. >> the governor said he is going to put 700 more law enforcement through the national guard on the streets tonight. >> so, one of the intriguing aspects of this case is what happened on facebook where you have a woman who claims to be keith scott's daughter -- i don't know if she is -- but she's on facebook saying, you know what, they killed my dad. my daddy is dead. and she's shouting and using profanity. she says also, let me tell you, that he was holding a book. the police chief says, no book, a gun. that's a very distinct narrative. the idea he was holding a book reminds me of hands up or reminds me of people -- i can't breathe. i think it might have contributed to local protests. i don't think there's time enough for anybody from out of state to get there.

>> reporter: you are right. the fact that people are able and aggressively posting on facebook without any verification and it gets a million hits, it's almost too late after the fact. that initial impression is so strong. if it gets a million people to watch it, her narrative is out there, whether it's true or not. that's one of the biggest differences since ferguson is protesters, community activists taking control over social media, speaking directly to people without any real editorial guidance, any censorship or sometimes any respect for the facts of the case. >> we will come back to you later in the show. thank you very much. we will talk about this, continue for a few more minutes. let me ask you, there's this whole debate over when to bring in additional manpower. if you do it too soon or too aggressively, it makes people agitated, protesters more agitated. if you wait too long, businesses can get destroyed. people can get hurt. >> spontaneously was thinking about that when i came up with

the question. i'm trying to remember which protest it was where recently there was similar situations where they should have called in more at the time. they were unprepared. even though they had warning there was going to be protesters. it's an interesting dynamic between local officials and state officials and even sometimes federal officials. should there be additional resources required? i know that mayors like to say that they can handle it on their own. but i don't think there's any shame in asking the state for cooperation and additional assistance. i don't think there's a mar on anybody's record. >> jennifer roberts was on. she had a press conference with the police chief and the community relations director. she said she had consulted with her city officials about what their needs were and what they expected. come to the conclusion they didn't need the additional forces. i do think that we are missing the point if we're focused on how many forces or the like. this is something that is sweeping the country. this is the number one political

issue right now in black america for sure. i think it's coming to the forefront of our national politics. it's causing alarm because i think people realize there's something much bigger here that has been ignored by people who want accountability for the way that poor people, mostly blacks and latinos, but poor people are treated by police, use of excessive force. >> are you talking about the protests or are you talking about the rioting? >> i'm talking about legitimate grievance. >> but, what we are looking at is not legitimate grievance. how is the shooting by a black police officer of a black man a race riot? they are changing the story. the media is allowing the story to change. this is not about grievance. this is about opportunity to riot. that's all it is. >> i don't think so. i think you have people -- nationally -- this is -- in other words, they're picking up on what happened in tulsa. i think they're picking up on that in a big way. and i think you see ferguson,

baltimore, chi -- you say, ther something big going on here. we're missing it. >> i don't think you are wrong. there has to be respect for the rule of law. they are not making it better by committing crimes. what about the police officer sofficers? it's a family of law enforcement, tradition of serving, in this horrible situation, a gun recovered at the scene, does he have a right to defend himself? >> of course. >> it's a horrible, tragic situation. >> there's accountability. our police officers held accountable. is it the case that people like us, america's middle class, we say, thank god for the thin blue line, keep those people over there. if the officer is at fault, we're always going to give the officer the benefit of the doubt because we think police are pretty much good people. >> i don't give the police the benefit of the doubt. i prosecuted officers. >> that's in tulsa.

>> in tulsa. >> a couple of quick numbers for you. last year, 2015, 990 people killed by police. 494 were white, 258 were black. this year so far, 325 white. 173 black. double the number of white people are killed by police. >> this is distortion. i think the number -- i'm telling you something. 24% of the people being fatally shot by cops are black? and if you compare the numbers in terms of black men, i told you this before, 6% of americans are black men. 40% of the people shot. something is -- >> black population is 13%. >> it's higher than the black population. >> but the crimes being committed by that population mirrors the number of crimes being committed by the white population. >> white people are being killed at a higher rate.

straight statistics. if you consider the number of crimes committed by blacks versus whites, they are. the other thing, there was a black female shot eight times over the weekend in philadelphia. we didn't mention her about race because she was a cop. nobody even -- nobody talked about the philly ambush. no protests about a black female officer being shot eight times. there were no riots. there was no activism. there was no sharpton. >> where was black lives mat te for that? >> this is more cop, not race. >> we have more to talk about. i think the brother of mr. scott -- ktt said some pretty provocative things. we will talk more about that coming up. much more in this hour on the race riots in charlotte. al sharpton isn't making this only a black and white issue. he is accusing black officers of next. you don't let anything keep you sidelined.

as riots infect charlotte, rumor replaces fact and the the story becomes one of social injustice meant to indulge criminal behavior. as media captures the gore, we stay home and we watch. does such violence persuade us? yes, it does, to buy more guns.

then wonder if we're doomed. there's al sharpton. >> the feeling is that many black officers know they can get away with doing in the black community to black suspects what they would never do in another community. what you have not seen is a lot of black cops or white cops do this to white suspects. so even though there may not be the same embedded prejudice, it may be i can be not as cautious because why don't we see this with black cops in other areas. >> if i'm not mistaken, did al just accuse blacks of being racist against blacks? and that a black cop serving his community should not have defended himself because he is black? would al prefer only whites to police blacks? isn't that precisely the opposite of a solution? just two months ago five officers in dallas were assassinated. we reacted in horror.

we hailed law enforcement. life is now an etch-a-sketch. those who wish to see america end, racial politics. the more you separate, the less you empathize. communication dies among unbending minds. as for all of you pseudo intellect you'll warri intellectual warriors save it. people riot because it's fun. we enable it by redefining such may hhem as protest. does it advance any course? of course not. you get to deck a stranger. isis, why bother? we're destroying ourselves without you. the big lie, i believe this, i will go to you, juan, you said it's out of anger. when i watch footage, i see a lot of people laughing, having fun, fighting over cash

registers. not wearing shirts. that's the thing apparently. i don't know. it's a party. >> i don't know if it's a party. i know the one common thread in this is young people often tyims teenage males. just watching on fox, you can see people of different colors. you see a lot of people. they are out -- >> rioting is a unity exercise. >> i don't know what it is. to me, it's destructive. it doesn't persuade anybody, doesn't build alliances. doesn't allow for bridges of understanding to come -- that would bring people together. i think it's stupidity. i will say i disagree with you about what al sharpton had to say. i think you have pointed out to me repeatedly that black and hispanic cops are more likely i think you said to shoot. >> it's a study. >> that's what you told me. i would point that out to you and say that the question of accountability for cops is very real in my mind. growing up as a black person in america, you do wonder, why does

trash get picked up in some communities, why are there good schools in some communities and why do the police treat some communities as if they are protecting it and others they treat as suspected? >> we move from calling police racist to the whole system is now racist? you can't win? >> the brother of keith scott is grieving. no doubt he is angry and mad. his comment was, all white cops are fing devils and all white people. the cop who shot mr. scott was black. he is making it more about race, the brother of the victim is making it more about race. juan is telling us it's not about race, it's about an injustice to -- it's a cop's treating a community -- i guess could you add race into it. >> without any accountability. it's what greg was saying. the cops are the blue line. on the cop side, the cops are cops. i don't care what color they are even. it's that poor people, poor communities feel like if they have a complaint or treated

abusively, nobody listens. >> here is the interesting thing. kimberly, the most obvious fact out of this is rioting doesn't persuade anybody to your idea. so you know you are not really persuading anyone. in fact, you are driving people to arm themselves. you will see gun sales go up. you will see people that own businesses learning to protect their businesses. it doesn't -- the belief that you are trying to achieve something is pure bs. >> the evidence is in the video. when you show these quote riots live, you see what's happening there. people running around, having a good time, putting on some costumes, face masks. total disregard for other human life. total disregard for property of the small businesses, people that have fought for their families to provide, trying to be part of the solution in a community. their property totally destroys. why is that okay? now what you see -- this is the cause of the day. everybody wants to go out and

riot. it's become a social occasion, which is totally insane to me as a former prosecutor and having appreciation for the cost emotionally and financially of violence. now, it's like the new rave party. it's too much. >> is it -- there has to be a sense among a lot of people that it's not getting better. that society in general is going to hell in a hand basket when you see this. is that -- as we realize crime is going down around the world -- around the united states, but you have the spikes of violence. the perception is one of doom. i'm depressed by this stuff. >> i think -- >> i'm already depressed. >> it's not helping. >> but i think that those that are participating in the riot or protest, they feel that way, too. that's what i'm getting the sense of. that they have -- >> the rioters? >> yes. >> protesters? >> protesters who would repeat maybe something juan said, which is i feel harassed.

i feel like i'm pulled over. the perception that probably is their reality. they think nobody will do anything anyway. they feel like things are doomed. they only get attention when this happens. >> i just would separate it. i would separate -- it's like the skittles metaphor. >> oh, no. >> you have to separate. there are protesters. i don't think rioters and looters give a damn about anything. there are protesters who do. >> i think they do. you wouldn't see mlk doing this. when you think about this in terms of effective discourse and having an open communication and discussion, this is not what it looks like. >> the anger we have been witnessing on the streets of charlotte isn't just about police shootings but about larger issues in african-american communities. we will discuss that next. that - that i was on the icelandic game show. and everyone knows me for discounts, like safe driver and paperless billing. but nobody knows the box behind the discounts. oh, it's like my father always told me -- "put that down. that's expensive."

i'm here because, guess what, whether i'm here, i'm in school, i'm in my car, okay, a man got shot over here, right? you basically say why would i put myself in danger? right. i could be at work. at school. in my car. i could still be shot by the police! i could get shot anywhere! >> pain and anger has been filling the streets of charlotte as you can clearly see there. newt gingrich weighs in on the rioting and race relations in america last night. >> i think this is an american tragedy. 53 years after martin luther king's great i have a dream speech at the lincoln memorial, eight years after the election of an african-american president who had two connecticsecutive african-americans, neighbored with no jobs, random violence, sense of being powerless even

though there's an african-american president. >> is that an accurate reflection? >> i think the young woman we shows, that was real anguish. i don't think she was faking it. she's very passionate, maybe spun up in the moment. i think she was representing some real hurt in the community. i don't know what it's like to be in that position. i would like to listen to more people that are doing a good job of community relations. think of education is true. i also believe the decaying of the social fabric of our country is not just happening in african-american communities. it's happening across america. especially civic organizations decrease, especially in rural areas around the country, we are facing a big technological shift that is going to come with massive unemployment. if we don't try to figure out a way to retrain. faith is down. marriage is down. there's some big problems all across the country. i feel for that young woman. i hope that there's a way to

ease her anguish. >> what is the way and the path for somebody like that that is very upset and feels let down by the community, by the country? where do you go? where do you take her to make her feel like things are going okay? >> that's why charlotte is an interesting study. if you compare it to baltimore and chicago and riots and crime, charlotte has higher levels of household income, lower levels of poverty, lower levels of unemployment. african-americans are doing better in charlotte than other major cities. but there's one thing in common. this may be the actual root cause to help solve some of this problem. in charlotte, the police department is -- in charlotte, it's 35% black in the city, but the police department is 18%. they are half represented -- less than 50% representation by african-americans on the police department. in the past. maybe that's what they need. they need a bigger presence on police departments in urban

areas. >> again, you reference the officer involved in the shooting, african-american, with family with distinguished service. what do you do for her? >> for her? i think first thing to do is what dana just did which is to say i hear you. not to dismiss her. it's easy to use her anger and the fact she's shouting and using profanity against her and think i don't have to listen to this person. but i think it's a real cry of desperation that i'm sitting in a car or i'm standing here or i'm -- i don't know what it's like -- donald trump said this thing about stop and frisk going nationwide. something that judges have said is unconstitutional, that is known -- >> stop and frisk isn't unconstitutional. >> that's what a judge said. it's something that ceded so much distrust. who are they representing?

it reminds me of the patriots of the revolutionary period. this british force, they got to go. >> greg, where do you go? where does the race relations talk go on the walk? >> i mean, i'm gloomy. then i look back -- i look at the big picture. we have 313 million people. we have seen reductions in crime and homicide over the decades with small spikes or significant spikes this year. our world has gotten -- the united states has gotten better so that isolated incidents become more dramatic and demand more scrutiny because there are fewer of these. the fact is there are fewer of these. therefore, they get more attention in the 24-hour cycle. when you talk about the fractured family and how community is breaking apart, what you lose is conflict resolution. it was maybe a month or two

months ago, dwyane wade's cousin was killed. the reason why she was killed was because two thugs were trying to shoot a driver who looked at them funny. that's how conflict resolution is performed in communities is i go find you and i shoot you. there's no more conflict resolution because there's no people teaching it. >> a little silver lining here. greg points out homicide rates are up and spiking in some major cities. the incidents of cops shooting people, killing people is exactly the same this year, it's on pace to hit almost the exact same number this year as last year. you are seeing more crime happening but the incidents of people getting shot by cops is down. >> could that be linked in the sense that the cops are pulling back -- right -- cops are pulling back and you see a rise in crime? >> could be. >> the ferguson affect. >> crime is down. >> yeah. in 25 of the top cities, there are spikes in homicide. >> in homicide. >> they are linking that to the

cool -- the ferguson affect. >> we turned to the presidential race. hillary clinton is now openly wondering why she doesn't have a bigger lead on donald trump in the polls. you will hear about that next. and maybe something else next.

the election only 47 days away today and hillary clinton only has a very slight lead on donald trump, something that's dumfounding the democratic nominee. here are some of her remarks to a gathering of union workers in las vegas. >> now having said all this, why aren't i 50 points ahead you might ask. well, the choice for working families has never been clearer. i need your help to get donald trump's record out to everybody. nobody should be fooled.

>> scary. >> wow. she's saying that especially to the union workers, gosh, donald trump doesn't pay his bills, he doesn't respond to contractors. why are union people backing donald trump? >> wait a minute. is that what you got from that? that was the worst thing i've ever heard. it was not fingernails on a chalkboard, it was that in imax. >> in surround sound. >> i think she's doi he is doinh union workers. he has an airport and a penthouse, but he talks like the average joe on the street. he talks like a guy you are having a beer with. he says a lot of things that union workers -- they want to see minimum wage and see unions more i guess aggressively backed. he also -- i think they are patriotic. i think they're concerned about national security. i think trump portrays that for

the union workers. union workers are -- their competition is migrant workers. >> i think that they also want to get deals done. everything in washington has been stalled. if you want a bill that could get that done, maybe it's donald trump that could get it done. the other reason she's not 50 points ahead, it's gary johnson. he is taking so many voters away from her and suppressing her numbers. that helps donald trump. >> i said that last night. >> she says to the union crowd, we need -- you need to have an intervention with your union workers, anybody that's fooled by donald trump. >> i think that probably terrified them. something is not quite right. you know -- it's not quite right what was going on there. something is not working well. i don't know. that was not helpful. that sounded like she's win whi, complaining. it's highlighting a very bad negative for her.

right now is hotels along the center of town here are actually telling their guests to leave. taking them to hotels outside of town. so some real anxiety here among businesses. this nba store is replacing its windows. it was one of many businesses along the strip that was looted last night. they have been quick about getting the glass back in, getting them boarded up again. concern now in several hotels, the guests being told it's not going to be safe for you tonight on this main strip in charlotte. you will have to go somewhere else. >> very dumb question. do stores have looters insurance? >> theft. >> reporter: i don't know about that. the people who had their shirts off were partying. a lot of those people who had their shirts off were because of the gas, the tear gas. they were using them as masks. >> how do you deal with tear gas? you are out there reporting. >> reporter: you learn a lot

shooting like this while the investigation is under way. >> juan? >> by the way, i was fascinated by what you were saying. it sounds like these people came prepared. >> reporter: prepared and ready to attack. i think the focus was not on looting when some stores like this behind me were looted last night. you had protesters shouting at the looters. there's different groups involved with different goals. the hard core, aggressive, young, angry people were not dissuaded by tear gas, by mace, by rubber bullets. they kept coming back for more. >> these are young people by what you see on the street, these are -- are they mostly teenagers, college students? steve, these are people who are coming to the downtown area, which is why bank of america, wells fargo, other big companies headquarters in charlotte are telling people to stay out. riots have taken place in poor

neighb neighborhoods, not this one. >> reporteat's a key difference strategy from what we saw in ferguson where it was black-owned businesses in black neighborhoods that were set on fire. here the target is the very affluent area. we saw people smashing windows of the ritz carlton. smashing a mercedes suv. they are picking targets more carefully than in ferguson. >> steve, i notice -- i'm not sure if this is unique to this situation, this event, this riot. last night you had that altercation with a couple of people. looked like it started to get heated up. a cnn reporter got thrown to the ground, pushed down to the ground aggressively. a photo journalist was threatened to be thrown into a fire. what is it -- the simple question, why are journalists being targeted? are you being targeted? >> reporter: there's a real mistrust of the journalists, a skepticism and a real emotional

anger here. you are dealing with people who are furious at times and emotional. you really have to be careful. there's a lot of ways to get hurt. one of the main ways is when people start to stampede and run. you have to look around, look for a place to go. another reason is when you have a camera with a light on, you are a target. people were hit last night. there's a hate not just of the police but of the mainstream media who the people feel i think are not really being fair in listening to them as dana said earlier. >> thank you, steve. you do an amazing job out there. we appreciate it. stay safe tonight. one more thing from us is up next.

get your dog chipped. after 35,000 views on facebook, he was reunited with his owner. >> how funny is that? >> what a coincidence. >> it's almost like it was meant to be. >> i would wander into there, too. >> you are up. >> they are the best. so this is an interesting poll for you football lowe lovers. according to a poll, kaepernick has become the most disliked player in the nfl. this is shocking. conducted by e-poll marketing research. 1100 americans were asked about this. more than 350 players, they had choices. he was disliked a lot, 29%. that's up from 6% in august of 2014 that didn't feel him. in the dislike category -- i don't know if you will figure this out. he finished ahead as most disliked of james winston -- i can't see anymore.

you are right it's jamison. and patriots quarterback, say it isn't so, tom brady. >> that's strong opinions. >> that matters because with endorsements. that will hurt him. >> all right. so we may not have gotten the flying cars from back to the future yet. but we have gotten something from that classic film. the lace-up sneakers now a reality. nike's self-lacing sneakers go on sale at the end of november. a pressure sensor to tighten the straps. the shoes are rechargeable. they light up when the shoe is tightening the laces. nike is calling them the nike mac. michael j. fox, who played marty mcfly, they gave him a pair. he has the first pair. >> i want these so bad.
