I guess we see it differently.
But, that is fine.

With which command did he not comply?

How can you even post this? This is the definition of jumping at straws.
He pulled over when he was signaled.
Castile had his daughter and wife in the car.
He was surrounded by a cop on both sides of his car.
Why would he tell an officer he has a gun? That drastically lowers any chance of a successful attack.

I saw the video. It blows me away that you want to take issue with what the officer said. It is absolutely the responsibility of the carrier to know what NOT to do in that situation.
"Don't reach for it!" doesn't mean it's ok to reach for the seatbelt, or your cell phone. It means don't reach for anything. Anyone who has been theough a CC class should know this without a second thought.
Im starting to think that incredibly, some of you don't seem to understand that whether you carry or not, regardless of the color of your skin, even regardless of you are dealing with an officer, or just an armed individual, your actions can and will put your life in danger.

It was reported his hands were going up. Who are you going to believe?

I'm not taking issue with what he said (despite the fact that you know it's not what he was supposed to say). I'm pointing out that Castile probably didn't perceive himself as not complying with the commands. "Don't reach for it." "I'm not."

The officer perceived he was. Perception is reality.

With a trigger happy jump cop, everyone's life is in danger. And you can jump in that thread when it happens and defend that shooting, too.

I'm responding to someone who said he was just reaching for his wallet.
Don't you think you have a slightly different vantage point? You are sitting on your couch
He is pulling over a possible armed robbery suspect. Do you think he has time to stop and think "wait why would he tell me he has a gun if he is planning to kill me?"

Does not having a round in the chamber lower your chance of a successful attack?

Did he follow procedure for this? Or was he just using it as an excuse? You can be honest with us. We won't tell the people on Police1.

Doesn't prove your argument at all

Castile wasn't going for his gun

Maybe. I certainly don't think getting shot likely crossed Castile's mind until it happened.

Didn't he tell the dispatcher he thought he matched the description of the suspect? That means he was thinking that before he even got out of the car. It can't be an excuse after the fact

What I have decided to do in that case is to put both hands on the wheel and tell him I have a firearm in the vehicle. When he tells me not to move I am going to request to be allowed to slowly move both hands out of the window to be properly handcuffed. Once removed from the car I am going to slam myself against the hood of my car and repeat "stop resisting, stop resisting" over and over again.
