Mikey Garcia ON Good Cops Bad Cops And Says Cop Was Justified Shooting Philando Casti

[.!WAR MIKEY!.]

This actually makes me want to cry. So he calmly informed the officer that he has an arm weapon on him, but what was the driver reaching for? Because he already gave the officer his licence from the video that i saw.

and that is why he was found not guilty cause the guy kept trying to reach for soemthing, he should have just stopped and put his hands out the window or the steering wheel.

I was indifferent towards who I wanted to win this fight but now I hope Broner gets the stoppage.

I don't know about this particular case and I hate listening to Mikey speak so I'm not watching the video but the overall consensus/opinion by certain people is that it's the victims fault they got shot. now that may apply in some cases but there are multiple videos of cops shooting civilians, innocent civilians at that in the US where the individual being threatened and shot did nothing wrong.

I once saw a video of a police care pull up at a random petrol station and point a gun at a man filling up his car. The officer then proceeded to scream at the civilian and eventually told him to reach inside the car and pull out his documentation. The moment the man did so, he was shot, multiple times, one time while he was on the floor. In the investigation that followed, the officer stated "I thought he was reaching for a weapon"...how can you think that when you were the one accosting him randomly and without any evidence and asking him to reach inside the vehicle?

There are multiple such cases and to blindly back a racist, seige mentality police force which is spreading like a provately owned cancer across teh world's largest economy is a joke and plain idiotic.

According to this article, the state of Minnesota has issued over 260,000 concealed carry licenses that are valid. The state of Minnesota also has reciprocity with 15 other states, meaning citizens with valid CC licenses from those states can also legally carry in Minnnesota.

In other words, a cop in Minnesota encountering an (legally) armed citizen is not some rare occurrence. And any cop in Minnesota who becomes 'scared' and shoots said armed citizen after being informed that they are legally authorized to carry AND announce they have said firearm on their person (like Philando Castile did) is way beyond just 'bad at their job'. Period.



'******* agenda'? 'Chicago'? Oh I see, you're one of those folks. Yeah, ok.

It seems that you think a concealed carry license implies that you can dig around in your car without having to worry about an officer's orders. Castile's license to carry a gun is irrelevant. He went about informing the officer the wrong way. Why would he tell him he had a gun in the car when he's digging in his pocket for his ID? You don't see how that might look su****ious?

If youre driving around with a gun in your car (legally or illegally), follow these directions and you will live to see another day. Put your hands on the steering wheel at 10 and 2. Inform the officer that you have a license to carry and that there is a gun in the car, do not lift your hands off the steering wheel until the officer has informed you that you can do so, inform the officer of each movement you're gonna make before you make it and wait for his approval before making it.

The cop was wrong, I'm not arguing that. What I'm arguing is this belief that Castile was dead the moment he was pulled over for "driving while black". If Philando followed the instructions I outlined, he would be alive today. Sad story.

Yep since he has already given the officer his licence and told him he had a gun on him he should have waited and listen for further instructions. The officer obviously panicked and overreact right away. It's a tragedy either way

Please post the video. Your description of the events is likely exaggerated.

When I see **** like this and a unarmed man killed shot in the back followed by the cop picking up a taser and planting it alongside his body. Sorry if I don't buy Yanez's "He was reaching!!!!!!!"

[Pigeons]

That one's pretty blatant. If I had to play devil's advocate, I'd assume the cop thought his license would be in his pocket where your wallet typically is. When he turns around without saying anything and reaches into the car, the cop thinks he's retrieving a weapon. The fact that the cop kept shooting after the guy has his hands in the air amounts to attempted murder.

My advice after watching this video would be to verbalize all of your actions to an officer. If he asks you for your license, tell him that it is in your car, and ask him for permission to reach back in the car. You never know when you're going to run into a bad cop. It's best to always exercise caution.

That was the most pathetic display of cowardice I've ever seen. Apparently your police have a habit of running away from trouble. And yes they had to eventually summon up the courage to hurt the man to subdue him and it only took about 30 of them.

Cowardice putting yourself in danger. American cops are frightened by teen boys and girls and shoot them because they get spooked.

The British cops contained the situation and put themselves in danger for the safety of the public.

Cowards need guns as they are not man enough to deal with situations without them.

Mikey is spitting 100% truth here, I know alot of certain people here will not like it cause they part of that "OH LAWDY NOT MY CHILD" mentality but fact is you have to play ball, worry about if its right or wrong after the fact in the courts where you can do something about it. I love what ellie said "its better to have a bad lawyers than a good pastor"

The guy that killed Chavez' brother was justified too.
