The Minneapolis Star-Tribune reportsthat Castile did have a valid concealed carry permit from Hennepin County (some on the Internet have used a Ramsey County Sheriff's Department Tweet on Castile not applying for a permit through that county as evidence he didn't have one; the Star-Tribune, however, cites a source, in reporting that he obtained one through another county, while living in Robbinsdale, MN).According to recent news, the statement about the CHL was made by the girl not the deceased. The video started after the shooting.
Except it's factually incorrect on almost every count.
When I get pulled over I already have all of my stuff together..I roll down my window and have both hands out of the truck so they can see them, I always say l have a concealed permit..never mention gun..and I don't move unless told it's ok... I appreciate the dangers of the job and value my life. If you don't act a fool no reason to be treated like oneWell like one of those articles that were posted, they stop him as a suspect in an armed robbery.
So they were on high alert. We don't know, but even by the girlfriends own admission he told them he had a gun as he reached for his license, supposedly.
I have been pulled over while carrying.
I had my license and CHL out before the police officer even got out of his car.
That way when he got to my window ai had my cards out and I didn't have to reach for anything.
I would think an officer would shoot my honkey arse just the same if I do something stupid.
Well obviously traffic offences carry a hefty penalty...one should drive safely or face the consequencesYou're right. It's not a reliable source. Here's why: The Minneapolis Star-Tribune reports that Castile did have a valid concealed carry permit from Hennepin County (some on the Internet have used a Ramsey County Sheriff's Department Tweet on Castile not applying for a permit through that county as evidence he didn't have one; the Star-Tribune, however, cites a source, in reporting that he obtained one through another county, while living in Robbinsdale, MN).

I think what it comes down to is that the Democrats will push not for an Assault Weapon Ban, but rather a complete ban on semi automatic rifles and pistols. This will eventually lead to a very strict registration system to purchase any type of firearm and I wouldn't be surprised if even high caliber rifles are banned, as they are in many other more fascist/dictatorship led countries. They will go for a gun destruction policy like in Australia. Sadly, they will falsely make claims that Australia's crime rate significantly dropped after the gun ban and that America will follow suit.
These demo-fascists will never stop until you are totally unarmed and then have totally submitted to their power and ideologies.
Like Hitler, the Democrat leaders have studied deeply about population control and are much more education on this subject, possibly than you or I. What power-hungry person wouldn't spend a significant amount of time studying about how to program the very subjects they have power over to increase that power.
The best way to increase power is to infuse fear into the masses and make them feel that by increasing the power of the leaders and decreasing the power of the citizenry, that they will be able to protect the citizenry from themselves, as well as threats from abroad.
History has proven when these fascists come to power, that they end up becoming more of a threat to their society than any perceived threat internally or externally. In fact, Joseph Stalin, for example, was responsible for the murder of almost as many of his own people as were killed by foreign forces in WWII. Hitler, of course, systematically exterminated people in his own society. These people who were murdered were all disarmed and stripped of any God given rights as we know them today before being killed.
I have to disagree. They will still take baby steps and as far as obummer he will still push the states to do it.
They make make an assault weapons ban, but I think even Dems know that's pointless seeing how there are probably 20 million in homes across America if not more.
They will push a mag capacity ban and continue to push state and local politicians to pass BS gun laws with the popular public opinion. That way as they get the blue states on their side they can blame the red states for the remaining violence and take action to turn those into blue states as well
First let me say I mean no disrespect when I post the below comment.Unless we enforce people to take classes on how to deal with nervous police officers, I think we will have to accept that of the millions and millions of conceal carry license holders, some of us are going to not know all the rules about interactions with police and some may make mistakes. I am almost positive what happened was he asked for identification and while he was reaching for it he told the officer he had a firearm and a permit and the police officer freaked out screamed for him to show him his hands and then unloaded rounds into him while he moved his hands to be visible. I am almost positive that the guy did not even attempt to reach for his firearm, contrary to the statement the officer made. I guess the Grand Jury will bring out the details, but I cannot be sure that I would trust the outcome and, as always, the jury and law will be on the side of the officer.
This officer was reckless firing 4 rounds with a young girl in the backseat. Had he shot that girl, all hell would have broken lose. I'm amazed at how many people overlook that.. The fact is you have a high strung cop who told the guy first to get his ID, the guy was being polite and said he has a licensed pistol (so we have heard). Even if he just said I have a gun officer, that should not result in a death sentence. Not many criminals, with a woman and child in their car (especially) will go and announce that they have a gun that they are going to pull out and shoot you with. I would say 99 out of 100 criminals who are going to shoot a police officer at a stop would go out of their way not to disclose they have a firearm.
A police officer also should understand that some people will notify him of the gun and the tone of voice would probably make a big difference as well. If someone belligerent psycho, screams " I HAVE A GUN".. Is quite different from some stating calmly, "Officer, I have a firearm". Is it a good idea to say it in that manner? No, of course not. However, as I said, of the millions of gun owners and those carrying firearms, not everyone will understand how to interact with police and they shouldn't be put to death as a result.
I think the violence and glorification of violence in the black community have contributed to the reactions of many of these police, however. I am not totally for blindly blaming all cops as being evil. I'm saying that responsibility should be where it should be. However, I do feel that the black community overlooks its own offenses and the violence that proliferates internally from within black communities. Obviously, with the Dallas shooting, I will have more understanding now when cops get jumpy on the trigger. I wish black community would get together to work on helping themselves rather than constantly act as helpless victims and help better their communities. The biggest victims of the violence in the black communities are black people themselves. As well, police are not the ones wiping out and executing the majority of black people . If you look at statistics, black people are commiitting the majority of murders among their own people.
Why won't Black Lives Matter and all the other civil rights groups speak out against violence committed against innocent black people by black perpetrators? I know the media will only focus on racial issues and try to ignite race wars. Also, how many black people have been killed by black police officers? If a black police officer feels threatened by a black person, does that make him racist? The fact that Philando Castile was killed by a Latino cop also doesn't seem to be recognized. They claim this is racism against black people by white people, yet a Latino person cannot be considered a white Caucasian, but this is, once again, how the media portrays the scenario to ignite the race war.
It doesn't make it right and I will say that regardless of our skin color or religion, an American citizen is an American citizen and I don't care what predispositions you may have, that person has rights and if you violate them you need to suffer the consequences.
Read the facts here:Which parts? He certainly had a striking similarity to the suspect, even though it wasn't him. Please educate us a bit - I'm just looking for facts.
The facts are not substantially different, except that the latter article has more actual facts. The first article builds a case for justification of the shooting out of speculation and innuendo using the few facts it contains. The implication is that the victim did not have a CHL because the local county sheriff didn't issue him one. We all know that's false. He did have one.I don't see a great deal of difference between the two articles - the main being that Castile did have a CWP, but in a different county.
The officer reported he stopped them because he thought Castile was the robbery suspect. There was a call at the same time that supports that. Castile does indeed strongly resemble the suspect, even though it was not him.
There was no broken tail light, which is evident in the photos of the previous article. It is possible that the officer told Castile it was a broken tail light to keep from tipping him off if he was the suspect.
As the investigation continues we will learn more. At this time I'm not convinced this was intentional on the part of the officer, but if the facts show otherwise I hope he is convicted and appropriately punished.
The Baton Rouge killing, however, looks pretty blatant, and I can't imagine it being anything other than out and out murder.
I believe the blood is solely on his hands.And el jefe is already calling for gun control, cause after-all, "we still don't know all the facts." Furthermore, blaming the criminal would damage my agenda and open myself to criticism, so... it was the gun's fault!
