OK, if you want to get into ridiculous (and snarky) detail: Castile was told not to go for the gun. He didn't. If he made any movement, it was to get his driver's license, so he was not disobeying the officer's order and thus was in complete compliance.

There, see how easy it is?

We don't do possession; we do defense and attack. Everything else is just wa**ing with a football.

Perception is everything. The copper (who had never fired his gun before) told him not to move, he then moved... the copper thought he was reaching for his firearm. Dude was shot.
Cops say... comply and we all go home.

America is a fukked up place... they fill it with guns, then blame a poor copper for making a snap decision after a suspect doesn’t comply with a demand. That’s not to say the guys deserved to be shot, just that these things will happen in a violent country with loads of guns.

7mins has his literal hat on. Splitting hairs being more important than understanding that a man died for no reason other than he ran into the wrong cop at the wrong time.

The dictionary definition of "murder" requires premeditation, which wasn't the case here. The cop was tried for "manslaughter", which is unlawful killing without premeditation.
