A white Apache (look at the pic)?

#3 he also apparently didn't have a CCW permit (only his girlfriend said that after the fact) and photos appear to show him with a gun on his left thigh, not in a holster (another lie). He had 52 moving violations

#4 Perspective - an officer responding to a BOLO for an armed robbery suspect matching the description of Mr. Castile observes a pistol in Castile's lap...of course the officer is going to pull his service weapon...and a mess...an armed encounter ensues. Unlike the BLM agitprop narrative, this officer wasn't just out looking for black folks with tail lights out to execute for no good reason.

The President and the media's rush to judgement and agitation in these situations make them culpable for the deaths that follow.

We await the rest of the story to determine whether this was a good shoot or tragedy.

#6 It still hasn't been confirmed if Castile did in fact possess a CCW permit. I have personally doubted the claim. Any legitimate CCW training will dedicate considerable time instructing the protocol as what to do and what NOT to do in those situations. First, don't blurt out "I have a gun". Simply hand over your permit along with your ID and wait for instructions. Finally, and this is the important part, once LE has established you indeed have a gun -keep your hands visable. Based on the video and comments from the passenger Castile failed to follow those simple steps.

#7 The Sheriff of that County said he never applied for one. Yesterday's news said he had 52 moving violations cited. I doubt any LEO would issue to someone with that kind of disregard for laws?

#8 Unconfirmed report that while Ramsey County didn't issue his permit, neighboring Robbinsdale did.

More info at Snopes, including a security tape image of the robber, who bears a striking resemblance to Castile.

Question, if you have a MN CCP, can you carry a handgun in your lap while driving?

Fellow sure had a long, repeated history of driving after revocation - I'm surprised he wasn't finally jailed for that.

#9 "First, don't blurt out "I have a gun". Simply hand over your permit along with your ID and wait for instructions."

Respectfully disagree. If the cop see a gun BEFORE you tell him - things are about to go sideways. You can't yell "look at my CCW" faster than the officer can draw down on you. The officer won't hear what you are saying - tunnel vision/auditory occlusion kicks in. My COA - interior light on, hands on steering wheel, eye contact w/officer " I have a handgun in the car located...". Wait for additional instructions.
