Current Events > Philando Castile Dash cam is out.

(+) Yeah! (+)

I am not going to link it since shows the killing, but no way the man who killed him should be out.
---

Fucking disgusting.
---

did you not understand when the man said "don't reach for it, don't pull it out"?

when a cop has the drop on you, you don't reach BEHIND your gun to get your wallet. When the cop is saying "don't reach for it".

I'm sorry but this puts this to rest. He died because he acted stupid.

Did the jury have access to the dash cam?

He died because he was black

He went for his pockets dudes, the cop acted like he was trained to do

wtf do you think he woke up to shoot up a man that day?

He was told to get his ID, so in other words he was complying. He didn't have to the tell the cop he was armed , and the cop lied about what happened.

Dang even he knew he fucked up hard

American cops are jokes

This whole case is proof that scumbag cops can get away with murder even when you have video evidence of it happening

He told him to get his ID , also why did your hero lie about what happen.

I'm white, conceal carry almost everywhere, and my wallet and gun are carried at the EXACT SAME PLACE that Philando was carrying them. 4 o'clock on the gun, and back right pocket for wallet.

If I would have ever reached PAST my gun to get my wallet when a cop is telling me "don't reach for it", I would expect the same outcome.

nervously, bad command because the dude HAD A GUN

"He went for his pockets!"
*cop asks for ID and someone doesn't give it*
"Just give him the ID. Comply. Do what he says!"
*cop asks for ID and man reaches for ID*
"Why was he reaching for it man?!"

-_-

While in this case it wouldn't have made a difference either way, you should definitively tell the Cop if you are armed.

He had more than an ID, he literally had a GUN

no way I would let you reach anywhere near that gun

Seriously though, like what the fuck was the whole thing on about. Like, I can see one of two things happening.

Officer: Let me see your ID/Insurance
Castile: *reaches for ID, gets shot 7 times*
Officer: He went for his pockets, I thought he had a gun

OR:

OfficeR: Let me see your ID/Insurance
Castile: No *gets shot 7 times*
Internet: He should have complied!

Listen cops are trained to Kill if they feel in any way in danger, they have the right to KILL as crazy as that sounds

To get his ID like you normally do when you're pulled over.

His ID and his gun were about 6 inches away from one another.

The only thing the cop should have done was be like "HANDS ON THE WHEEL" as soon as he mentioned a firearm, but he was trying to be cool about it and not just blow up like I've seen cops do when they figure out weapons are in the car.

Reaching for your ID is reason for execution according to mouthbreathers who post on the internet.

Owning a gun is a right that doesn't get revoked just because a cop is nearby.

seems fair, next tbqh

"get your id"
"ok"
"oh hey btw I have a gun"
"ok stop and don't reach for it"
*continues to reach*

a smart person would be like "well do you still want my id?" instead of just continuing to reach for something after you tell a cop you have a gun and he tells you not to reach

The cop was scared, do you know this happened during a very hostile climate between cops n the black community?

do you realize EVERY cop was probably told, shoot on sight if you feel your life is in danger.

Don't you know a cop has to wait until someone is halfway through their first magazine before they can react to black people with guns? Otherwise it's racist.

Then that would be talking back to the cop. Something that people suggest should be a capital crime too.

Just watched it. That cop is a fucking idiot. The man told him he had a firearm. Sure, the man shouldn't have put his hand towards the gun, but the cop should have been able to keep his composure more. It wasn't like the man was hiding it. If the man had any malicious intent, he never would have told the cop ahead of time that he had a firearm.

Totally with the victim on this one. The victim is at fault in one area, but everything else is totally the cop's fault.

Can't tell if this is satire or not.

Guessing Philando didn't register that reaching for anything was going to be construed as reaching for the gun. Probably thinking, "I'm not, I'm reaching for my wallet" not realize the danger he was in.

Anyways, let's get some cops that aren't fucking pathetic.

Also, fuck the NRA for remaining silent on this.

you've obviously never been in a car pulled over with guns in it (well who am I kidding you've never touched a gun).

and I'm fuckin white at that, had cops flip the fuck out.

When you carry your wallet a 5:30 and your pistol at 4:00 you should be mindful when a cop thinks you're reaching for your gun.

I like how people are victim blaming instead of asking why the cop put him in a catch 22 in the fucking first place.

I have my ID, insurance, and CCW out and my hands resting on my wheel before the cop even gets to the car.
I'm not saying this puts him at fault or justifies it though. Just steps I take to avoid getting shot.

Let me just reach for something after telling the cop I have a gun and he's yelling not to do that

it'll go well I'm sure

Doesn't change the fact that the cop handled this situation terribly. He's the trained one. Not Castillo. (Though these days I guess we have to use the word "trained" loosely) He informed the officer he had a gun. He was asked for his ID. He reached for his ID. Cop should have approached it differently. He's more at fault and anyone trying to say it's mostly Castilllo's fault is insane.

Is any one else afraid?

That you can be pulled over, cooperate, be killed by a cop, and your family gets no closure.

Terrifying. And I'm white and never carry a gun.

Police in America need reform. The system clearly helps corrupt cops, and corrupt cops get a helping hand from buddies who are too cowardly to call fellow officers out for misconduct.

Bodycams are a good step towards this. You exonerate cops who were justified in shooting somebody or convict them if they weren't. The obvious issue is that crypto-state worshipers like modern conservatives seem to consider innocuous actions worth instant-death, like reaching for your wallet. If we're at a point where we should expect to be shot because cops are trigger happy morons, then shit needs a real change.

His CCW class he took likely told him keep hands on steering wheel, inform officer, and ask him how to proceed.

It is how I was trained, and I've honestly never seen any deviation from it taught anywhere.

You sound like an idiot and are truly a terrible person.

I bet you would be signing a different tune if it was your family that was killed for following orders during a routine stop.

Almost every time I'm stopped, the thought runs through my mind and I don't own a gun either. Hell, I've had a gun pulled on me once and have had many stops where the officer's hand is resting on their gun. Never been threatening or discourteous to an officer when being stopped though. All of these were for shit like speeding (gun was pulled on me when I was going 4 over), broken head/taillights, expired registration or whatever.

You can comply and still be killed. All you have to do is encounter the wrong cop.
