He told the officer he had a gun and then went for the glove compartment. The proper protocol for this young man would have been to take his gun as soon as he was pulled over and put it on the dashboard in plain sight. No misunderstandings.

White jurors “microaggressions” in the jury room!
because BLACK trumps BROWN!!!!!!!!!!!!!
You’re a liar.
You are a liar.
Well, at least she’s being gracious and dignified with her response.
Life is dangerous, but there are things you can do to mitigate the danger.
There are also things you can do to increase the danger.
Should a picked our own cotton.
Should have turned off car, rolled window down, hung both hands out the window, and Followed directions
The cops will be issued whiffle bats instead of guns.
Guilty Africans are simply accustomed to getting away, literally, with murder. They think pulling a gun on an LEO is completely within their ghetto rights. OJ Simpson did, so why can’t I dodat too?
Exactly!
Get pulled over you don’t go grabbing for stuff before the cop gets to the window.
Best thing is to let the cop know exactly what you are reaching for and where it’s located all while in plain sight.
It was an unfortunate accident. That’s all. It’s not a part of a pattern of anything and it’s not a racial incident. Castile was told not to reach for his gun...he did...the cop panicked a bit and fired. I don’t understand why he couldn’t just do what the officer tells him to do and not make any move that may put the officer on the defensive.
I guarantee that any "common traffic stop" involving me could never produce a death sentence stpo.
But then, I don't do drugs and I have an IQ over 45...
Yep.
What I am flabbergasted about is that no one else seems to fear a world where a totally entitled indolent loser will kill another human being for feeling "disrespected..."
I suppose that depends on if English is your first language, recognize the subtle shades of meaning with the word "innocent," and the similarities between "innocent" and "blameless."
