Lawyer: Officer who shot Philando Castile reacted to gun, not race (bulls**t)

8. There's not a lot of actual objective evidence presented so far.

There's what the officer said on video. There's what the girlfriend said on video.

While a fair number of people have said she was "narrating events," she was giving her summary while the closing credits to the main event rolled, followed by her reaction when she realized that her boyfriend wasn't just shot in the arm. (Seriously. Unless the bullet hit the bone even I, whose gun experience was using a .22 at scout camp in '74 and using a shotgun to disperse a sparrow with extreme prejudice in '83 or so know that skin and meat don't stop a bullet fired at close range.)

And, to be honest, there shouldn't be a lot of evidence presented so far. It'll be investigated by various and sundy. What's left is disbelief because, well, we already know who's guilty and what the punishment has to be. Unlike some in the past, though, we just don't have the balls to grab the guy and implement the punishment ourselves.
