That looks more like a tazer.
You know what would shed a ton of light on the subject? If the idiot had turned on his body cam!

I can't wait till you all refuse to eat crow once all the details come out. If a body cam video doesn't come out, I think its safe to assume its for a reason. And that reason doesn't make these cops look good.
Uh oh, now you are generalizing about me, lol. Is this where I get offended?
Eating crow? When was the last time someone ate crow when the 'innocent' black that wasn't so innocent was shot and killed?
And proof that Castille wasn't reaching for his gun? There was no proof of anything. The video didn't prove shite. That's just as bad as when I said he DID reach for his gun. The video was from a squad car. Cop says don't reach for the gun. Dude said he was going to reach for something. Cop yelled again. I'm sorry, I'm going to assume the 'victim' fricked up and didn't comply.
I've lived 31 years without getting shot by a cop. I assume it's because I'm white, right?

Unless he's Dirty Harry, that's a taser or flashlight.

Anyone see the TMZ video of the situation?

Absolutely. This is so easily provable. I'm in law enforcement and instantly recognized this as a taser. That dumb arse Bennett should've at least got a second opinion before posting this.
They'll prove this as garbage in a few days. Not that it'll matter because the left will ignore it but that's a taser.

So watching that video I see cops with their guns drawn, rushing into a crowed casino to what they think is an active shooter.
I see citizens running out of the casino, because they think there is an active shooter inside, pass these same officers.
I also see these officers running pass a lot of black males and not a single one was stopped, detained, or threatened.
But Bennet claims he was only stopped because he was black?
Come on people. You can't be that naïve to believe that b.s. He did something more to draw the officer's attention besides being black.

McMahill said he was unaware of the incident until Bennett’s letter.
He said officers claim Bennett was crouched behind a gaming machine and was spotted running. Officers were responding to reports of a possible active shooter in the casino.
“You hear the officer approaching the door saying, ‘There he is.’ He gives chase; Mr. Bennett jumped over the wall, our officer jumped went over the wall immediately thereafter,” McMahill said.
Bennett was detained for 10 minutes and released, the undersheriff said, though Bennett wrote he was not given “any justification” for his apprehension.

When you're on the ground...I think most people are gonna think that's a gun.
How is he dumbass? He was polite to the officer ?

Like just be the biggest and fastest black guy to but running away?
Cops probably saw a 6'4 280 pound guy run a 4.7 away from the scene and though that was the shooter

Because the incident wss 2 weeks ago. He may have thought it was a gun in the moment but he should have vetted this with his attorney or anyone with a knowledge of guns/tasers before posting it for the world to see.

I love how just because hes a celebrity, you all think he made this up.
And because he is black, you all think he is telling the truth. I do not understand why blacks will defend another black to the end (OJ was innocent, Michael Jackson did not diddle little boys, refusing to snitch on criminals in their own hood, etc.)

It is never the cops fault when the victim is a miniroty! Right!
Smh.
It is amazing how angry you people get saying others jump to conclusions but this thread was full of people like you jumping to conclusions about the police being innocent and now spinning stories in an attempt to defend what they saw.
Your obvious narrative whenever this happens to a minority is "well.. they deserve it". You don't need evidence. You don't need proof. They had ti do something to deserve this. However when it happens to a non-miniroty you need every bit of proof to make any kind of determination and demand nobody rush to any conclusions.
You guys are so transparent I'm sure you're still defending that officer who was suspended for that incident in Cobb County where he told the lady "relax, we only kill black people".
We talking about people's lives, just because thrit skin has more pigment shouldn't make the conversation different. No sensitivity.
No care. It's astounding.

But Michael Bennett said he was profiled:
Matt Markovich @mattmarkovich
Attrny for Michael Bennett says race wasn't a factor in arrest but lack of probable cause was May file civil rights lawsuit
First off he wasn't arrested, only detained for ten minutes. Secondly, police officers don't need probable cause to detain you.

It also shows that Bennett is getting used by that attorney.

Perfect example of why we are having issues. Morons make up statistics in thier heads, then believe those made up stats to be fact.
