If the cop committed murder I want him charged. If he reacted to a threat that Castile was possibly pulling a gun on him....I want the cop cleared. Both are tragic. Neither are worth rioting over.
Agreed, and it certainly wasn't worth the lives of 5 innocent police officers.

According to many that knew the guy, he was broke in the military. They are blaming the military for not getting him follow up help.
They knew he was having mental issues. Those who served with him say you can't train people to trust your life with those you are in dangerous situations with and then simply remove people from that kind of situation to be left to yourself.
Does that excuse his actions? Absolutely not. Why did he do what he did? It seems far more complicated than people want it to be.

That's how it works. That's how they do it. They just couldn't care less about what's true and what isn't true - their entire agenda is solely about what they want to be true. This whole thread is nothing but 28 pages of bull****, a 28-page long lie. But people will remember that they read it, and go to their graves believing it's true.

UPDATE: Castile’s girlfriend, Diamond Reynolds, has now given an interview, with her attorney, to ABC News, in which she seems to radically alter her story about the gun in the car. In her original version she indicated: “As he’s reaching for his back pocket wallet he lets the officer know, ‘Officer, I have a firearm on me.’ I begin to yell, ‘But he’s licensed to carry.'” However, in this interview (in which somehow ABC fails to note the dramatic discrepancy) she says: “[The gun] never came out. It could never be a threat. [Yanez] didn’t ask about it,” she said. “He didn’t know it was on his person.”

She also says in that interview, "We told him, he told him" meaning Castile told the cop he had a gun as he was reaching for his ID. She has not changed her story.

Yeah? So what? I figured that was the one you were going to find; I've seen it before.
Can any of you tell me in your own words how those two statements contradict each other? Don't just say, "read it yourself!", or "it says right there in the article!" Explain in your own words where the contradiction is. I want to see how well you guys can really read.
Police should not check people who they think might be armed robbery suspects?
It was just a lame excuse to pull another black guy over. The odds of this random black guy being the subject were slim and none.
