Apparently you are unfamiliar with the use of force standard set by the United States Supreme Court : “If a police officer has an objectively reasonable fear of an imminent threat to his life or serious bodily harm, he or she is justified in using deadly force. And not just his life, but any life.”

It is obvious that you are not the least bit interested in the FACTS of this case.

One again : You have no idea what happened in this case. Why not wait until the facts have emerged ? ? ? It ain't what you don't know that gets you into trouble. It's what you know for sure that just ain't so. - Mark Twain

The words in blue are called "links."

If you had bothered to actually read the article, you would clearly see that the source is the Washington Post.

The facts will be ignored because the do not fit the carefully crafted narrative.

Gee, that does not sound like a peaceful protest. Are you saying people should avoid downtown ? ? ? Because of danger ? ? ?

It ain't what you don't know that gets you into trouble. It's what you know for sure that just ain't so. -Mark Twain

While it is helpful for self serving politicians to divide people into monolithic groups based solely upon the color of their skin, it is not helpful to the fabric of our nation. To paraphrase a great civil rights leader : People should be judged as individuals.

Your rhetoric is irresponsible and inflammatory.

Unlike you, I am reserving judgement until the facts come to light. I do not know what happened in this case. I've not expressed any opinions about Mr. Castille or the police officer. Reasonable fear is the standard set by the Supreme Court. Have a nice day.

You have no idea what transpired in this case. Why not wait for the actual facts to emerge ? ? ?

And yet definitive assumptions were falsely presented as factual in the initial reports... From the get go... people have jumped to conclusions in this case based on rumor and supposition, and now many more have been murdered in the remaining days. There is a great lesson here, if people are willing to set aside their bias and wait for the various investigations to reach their eventual conclusions.

Looks can be deceiving : https://theconservativetreehouse.com/2016/07/08/confirmed-philando-castile-was-an-armed-robbery-suspect-false-media-narrative-now-driving-cop-killings/ Seems that many of the initial assumptions were wrong.

And they are both wrong... this is called pandering.

Objective ? ? ? You've got to be kidding. Mr. Sterling had quite the history : http://bearingarms.com/bob-o/2016/07/07/sold-felon-alton-sterling-illegally-acquired-gun/

Powell and Rice did not use personal servers. Hillary's lawyers deleted over 30,000 emails. You've got the basic facts wrong... again.

Police officers are not psychic.

Reasonable fear is the standard, if they felt he was going for the gun it could be justified.

You cannot see his right hand in the video.

That attitude is called integrity. I do not engage in the politics of personal destruction.

You offered to email me the file with names redacted.

The DOJ is prosecuting and imprisoning others for much less.
