    The biggest hypocrites of this whole situation are the super pro-second amendment crowd & the NRA. A man who was exercising his constitutional right to own a firearm was shot and killed for it. Where's the outrage?

    You see the problem unfortunately was he was exercising his constitutional right to own a firearm while being black.

    The majority of NRA members fantasize about shooting a black man 7 times in the chest and having no repercussions when they are squeezing off at the range.

    It would be like the NRA standing against shooting trophy animals on safari in Africa.

    Pretty much... It's a never ending cycle of unjust killing followed by protests/riots then cop gets acquitted and more protests/riots. There has been no reported rioting tonight though (thank god).

    yeah feel like they should have started and ended with the LA riots, but I guess the NRA is too big

    give it an hour or three.

    What's the point of protesting these situations if it just falls on deaf ears each and every time and nothing changes? It's the same vicious cycle.

    The fact that every dumbass in the US can have a gun is the biggest problem of all of this.

    In this case the cop was definitely wrong, but if u americans wouldn't be able to have guns so easily a lot less situations like this would happen

    "I don't know."

    Officer who shot Castile when asked why he killed him on camera seconds after he shot 7 shots.

    Very disappointed in the NRA for not coming out and publicly flipping s--- about this.

    As for the pro-second amendment crowd, I know a ton of people (including myself) who are very outraged by this.
