Because the story is completely wrong. A simple google search pulled up his “Criminal” record.
Vehicle Violations. Terrible guy here.... Driving without a seatbelt on. Broken muffler. Unable to produce insurance card. Driving on a suspended lisence.
Yep! Stuff like that. Never a felony arrest. Nothing with gangs.
The website pulled information from a Conspiracy website that post some of the most outlandish (and racist) stories. Some of them are hysterical due to how badly written they are. They seem to be similar to the National Inquirer but edgier.
Anyway, not a felon. Not a good driver either. But that is the worst of it. That is how he was able to have a Legal Carry Permit.
Fifty-five traffic violations would qualify one as a scofflaw.
Did you notice the strong resemblance between the "victim" and the "perp"?
But, in this environment, no cop should be concerned when making a routine traffic stop - that would be racist.
How do you KNOW he has a valid CCW? All you have is his “Girlfriends” word for that. The Sheriff of the county for that area has already said no application under Castiles name was ever submitted and no application was ever approved. After Ferguson & Trayvon & all the others I am continually amazed at how many people buy into the first narrative. THEY have a playbook. They cue it up every time. It’s always false & misleading. Lies make the front page, corrections are on A28 days or weeks later. It is much more likely that this guy did not have a valid CCW. There are videos of him and Lavish smoking weed, hot boxing the car with a kid in the back seat. He was driving around w/o a license, high, illegally carrying a concealed weapon, possessing drugs, all with a kid in the back seat. Highly doubtful he is a responsible gun owner who takes seriously gun ownership and concealed carry. If it looks like a thug, walks talks and acts like a thug, it’s most likely a thug.
