According to the official Minnesota Department of Public Safety's Bureau of Criminal Apprehension (BCA) transcript of the interview of Yanez and his attorneys Tom Kelly and Robert Fowler, Yanez stated that his justification for the shooting was based on fear for his own life because he believed that Castile's behavior was abusive toward a young girl passenger (Reynolds' daughter) in the car. Yanez said: "I thought, I was gonna die, and I thought if he's, if he has the, the guts and the audacity to smoke marijuana in front of the five-year-old girl and risk her lungs and risk her life by giving her secondhand smoke and the front seat passenger doing the same thing, then what, what care does he give about me?

The gun was found to be in Castile's pocket when paramedics were prepared to load his fatally wounded body into an ambulance

Read my previous comments again and read this statement by the killer cop.

I'm not justifying the killing but my comment was specific about something so read it again.

Yanez states, "it appeared to me that he was wrapping something around his fingers and almost like if I were to put my hand around my gun. It was dark inside the vehicle ..." At another point "it seemed like he was pulling out a gun and the barrel just kept coming." "I know he had an object and it was dark. And he was pulling it out with his right hand." He added: "It was, to me, it just looked big and apparent that he's gonna shoot you, he's gonna kill you."

If only blacks in America can get their acts together, these fools won't be fooling around with their white supremacist nonsense.

A good percentage of the problems blacks encounter in the States are caused and fueled by them.

The day black man decides to get off the streets, stop gangsterism and become responsible adult, every other race will start to respect them.

In the ongoing black lives matter protests, majority of the genuine protesters that I have observed are whites, Latinos and even Asians whereas blacks who are supposed to be at the front of the agitation are busy looting stores. Isnt that shameful and a thing to worry about?

Show me one completely verifiable responsible black man that has been assaulted by the cops.

I bought a tecno phone last year with helio a22 processor for 65k, umidigi a3s with thesame processor goes for 29k. Camon 15 premier with helio p23 processor 95k, umidigi a5 pro with the same processor 43k. My advice don't buy tecno and infinix, buy other brands like nokia, umidigi, xioami. The current tecno phone am using will be my last transion device. My eye don clear.

Twitter has repeatedly failed to explain why their rules seem to only apply to the Trump campaign but not to others. Censoring out the president’s important message of unity around the George Floyd protests is an unfortunate escalation of this double standard.

The conspiracy against Trump continues but they will fail ...Twitter was on the verge of collapse with no purpose till Trump joined it and revamped it ..it was after Trump joined Twitter that it broke even and even became profitable...After Trump wins his second term I advise he moves to another microblogging platform and we will join him there

dokie:
Rubbish.

The democrats want trump out by all means, using every ally and situation available. Yet they are the most wicked and heartless set of politicians.

The world would be better off without them.

They have been forcing xiaomi on people's throat.

It's not a new story that nairaland phone section has become a toxic place as a result of aggressive marketing from Xiaomi Fanboys. These set of people should be regarded as phone idiots, because i see no reason they have to be forcing a particular brand into someone's throat. Whenever you don't buy to their idea, they start calling you a Tecno/Infinix Marketer forgetting that many people here do aired their views neutrally even without some of us using this tecno and infinix I count this as a high level of illiteracy from xiaomi users/fan boys. We all understand that xiaomi is a good product trying to gain it ground in Africa market but if xiaomi fan boys think the only thing they can do to establish these brand is by hating tecno/infinix with their aggressive marketing, i think that is a very stupid idea. I've used many brands for many years be it Nokia, Tecno, Infinix, Huawei, Samsung and Xiaomi redmi note 8 before i sold it and I've never regretted of using any. Once a xiaomi fan boy struggled to use his entire savings to get a low end or average xiaomi device we won't rest on nairaland, they feel as an assistant god forgetting that some of us are using a high end phone and we have people using Iphone as well. I termed these set of people as phone idiots with their aggressive marketing strategy. nobody ever forced me to buy my redmi note 8 for me.. I came across it in Slot and i gave it a trial. Yea the phone served me well for 7 months plus. During my time of using xiaomi i never forced it on people's throat. I remembered how my friends do mock the name xiaomi and called it "Naomi" i never bothered and if those people that are interested in it do ask me how was the device, all i do tell them is it's serving me well. I never for once forced it on their throats to get one despite i knew it functions are better than most of my friends using tecno and infinix. 2 guys and a lady that bought the Same phone opted for it from their own personal conviction after they do operate my phone for few week whenever we do hang around. I never for once slammed their tecno and infinix phones before they knew the difference.
But come to nairaland all these educated illiterates with their aggressive marketing strategy can even make someone that doesn't even know about the brand hate it before even given it a trial. I've been a guest on nairaland without registering as a member for many years because i don't have any reason for it. I registered lately last month when i created a thread about my xiaomi phone i wanted to dispose... I'm a quite user without hating other brands but these many idiots would always give the brand a bad name.. They claimed the device is good yet they do feel insecure, the better part of the day they ought to be using to enjoy their phones are been spent on nairaland to monitor tecno and infinix post as if these brands are the cause of their misfortunes. If you want to make xiaomi popular employ dancers on the street with a moving vehicle and banner and start moving from street to streets. But you see this hatred and useless campaign here against tecno and infinix here on nairaland is a complete waste of time that if you guys even values what is called time because i can't see a person with job coming here and monitoring tecno and infinix everyday. The more you hate the more you guys are loosing your battles, because you see 70% of Nigerians doesn't understand what is snapdragon or mtk especially ladies and average decent phone users not noise makers. Visit any store, customers are interested in brand popularity , battery and ladies are interested in camera. More than 80% of Nigerians doesn't understand pubg, pes 2020, type c charger, corning gorilla screen, snapdragon bla bla bla that you these xiaomi kids do cry about everyday. Use your senses and use your phones in peace, you don't need to be a cyber bullies before people patronize your brands. I know you guys would be pained after reading all these but you know what the truth is that you all lack common sense until you learn how to respect people's wish.
