*New Wrinkle Emerges In Philando Castile’s Death That’ll Leave Cop-Haters So Mad <http://therighttobear.com/5948-2/> * When the video of Philando Castile having just been shot by police emerged on Facebook last week it created a media firestorm. The death of this supposedly upstanding citizen at the hands of police after he was attempting to reach for his license was instantly branded an *unjustifiable police killing*. Apparently Castile was shot even though he had informed the officer on hand he had a CCW…but that claim doesn’t hold up under the weight of facts. One of which was Castile didn’t have a CCW and any gun he had with him was being carried illegally. CT writes <http://conservativetribune.com/shock-vid-philando-castile/?utm_source=Email&utm_medium=PostUp&utm_campaign=CTDailyEmail&utm_content=2016-07-11> : The shooting of <http://conservativetribune.com/media-rushes-to-bury-this-truth/> Philando Castile seemed like the perfect, airtight case for anti-cop protesters to use against law enforcement. A man pulled over for a broken taillight reached for his wallet and said he was legally carrying a concealed firearm. A cop shot him with his child in the car, leading to his death. Increasing the outrage was a graphic video of Castile’s death, shot by his girlfriend, Diamond “Lavish” Reynolds. Things began to go downhill from there. First, the Minnesota county that would have issued Castile’s concealed carry permit said that he hadn’t even filed an application for one; the gun was being illegally carried. Then, it came out that he wasn’t being pulled over for a broken taillight when he was stopped in Falcon Heights, Minnesota on July 6. He actually matched the description of a man who committed an armed robbery in the area the day before. But what about the child, you may ask? Well, it’s not as if either Philando Castile or Diamond “Lavish” Reynolds abstained from doing things they shouldn’t have with their child in the car. New video shows that both of them would do drugs while driving with their child in the backseat. The videos, unbelievably, were posted to Reynolds’ Facebook account. Given the rather irregular look of that cigarette and Ms. Reynolds’, um, laconic demeanor, I’m going to assume that’s not tobacco. Oh well. At least it was a one-time occurrence, something that happened while they were … oh, wait, there’s another video of Reynolds doing drugs in their car with their kid present? In this one, Philando Castile doesn’t seem to be present (although it’s difficult to tell, thanks to the fact that Reynolds seems very impressed with her ability to inhale marijuana and dedicates almost every moment to filming herself). At 2:09, she also seems to intimate that she sells drugs, something that would intimate they were perhaps deeper in crime than just the average stoner couple. Of course, I’m sure they never drove their daughter around while stoned. This doesn’t mean that the shooting of Philando Castile was justified, and for all we know this could be a case for the courts. Whatever the matter, though, it’s not a case for the court of public opinion — especially when that opinion is manipulated by the omission of facts by the media. This is the problem with social media. Before all the facts (or for that matter, any facts) were in, people were already rushing to condemn the officer (of Chinese descent) for being an anti-black cop. Everyone just assumed this man had been shot because he was black. It looks like he was shot and happened to be black. Since the video in question only starts after the shooting happened it’s impossible to determine if Castile had in fact warned the officer about his CCW. But seeing as how he had no legal license to carry it’s doubtful that’s true. Are you sick and tired of people jumping all over police and accusing them of being murderers before the facts are in?
