...During the uploaded video narration Ms. Reynolds stated the police officer pulled them over for a broken tail light.
There are several aspects of the narrative as told that didn’t pass the sniff test, however, something about the “tail light” just didn’t seem to make sense. Especially when you consider it was daylight when they were pulled over; and where –in the aftermath media video– it can be noted the tail lights were operable.
Upon further evaluation of the entire set of circumstances, something is missing.
Was there another reason why the police officer would pull them over?
The shooting took place, late afternoon/early evening Wednesday July 6th. [ Remember that, and stay with me ].
The people at GotNews chased down the social media profiles of Diamond and Philando, and unfortunately a familiar set of social behaviors surfaces.
Yes, Philando Castile was a gang member (crips), frequently picturing himself with firearms, cash, drugs and gang signs; and Ms. Diamond also has a colorfully broadcasted social presence.

It was 55 traffic violations.
And he was driving. The video is inverted. The round thing in front of him is the steering wheel.
Now, this could be one of those cases where a black guy has his seat in the ALMOST BACK SEAT position. The ones where they drill new holes and rebolt the seat down so it can go that far back.
He was in the driver's seat.
OK. Now, does anyone know if he had a valid driver's license ?
Thank you.
Whewwww... Only 55. I am glad it wasn't 79 because that would have been alarming.
: )
Yep. Keep looking. There is almost 600,000 pictures off of Google that show him behind the wheel. One of the 600,000 may convince you.
He was, indeed, driving the car. And it is, MD’s, obvious.
Not sure about the drivers licence. They are reporting on our local TV that he did, in fact, have a valid carry permit. Gets more interesting.
Wrong guy. You’re referring to Alton Sterling in Baton Rouge. This guy was in Minnesota.
If he had a valid permit, then surely many of the 55 times he had been previously stopped he was able to successfully follow police instructions with regard to his weapon. What happened this time?
That’s the question. His drivng violations were about three a year average. It is another area that Minneapols is looking into. Why was he pulled over so much for minor violations? The ones where they have audio and/or video, he was always polite and professional.
There is a lot the local Minneapolis news is starting to release.
I want to believe.
But.... my eyes and brain can't agree on what we see. Perhaps you can help me.
For instance...
Now, if that is Philando sitting behind the wheel, just where is the 'girlfriend' sitting while taking this video ?
Question 2: Why are a majority of the photos and the video 'reversed' ? Does your smartphone 'reverse' the videos ? When on selfie mode ? Mine doesn't.
Which MAY be true. But ask yourself this... why is it reversed ?
Did his 'girlfriend' have a British smartphone ?
Now it is days later. They still can't or won't confirm that he had a CC permit. Isn't that true ?
P.S. Sometimes the police will approach the vehicle from the passenger side to avoid getting hit by cars on the drivers side. Was that the case here ?
I know on the iPhone, depending which camera setting was used, it *is* possible for the picture to look reversed. I haven’t watched the video, but it’s likely that’s what happened.
“Did his ‘girlfriend’ have a British smartphone ? “
His ‘girlfriend’ is a low-intelligence doper narcissist. She probably thinks flipping the image back and forth is artsy or something. Or at bare minimum it serves to confuse things like it’s doing now.
“Now, if that is Philando sitting behind the wheel, just where is the ‘girlfriend’ sitting while taking this video ?”
She is sitting in the passenger seat filming.
I honestly do not know why the video is inverted. I’ve yet to read anyone with a viable explanation. It’s probably something to do with the upload to Facebook, maybe? That’s the best I can figure because my phone doesn’t do that either.
“They still can’t or won’t confirm that he had a CC permit.”
All the local channels are saying they can confirm he had a valid CC Permit. I haven’t personally seen it so I don’t know 100% but between newspapers and the local news, yes.
Thanks.
Yep.
