Black gun owners worried by acquittal in Castile shooting

6. One would be a damned fool these days to tell a cop you have a weapon.

Castille isn't the first case of cops going ape shit after a black person advises them of a concealed weapon. Years ago when I got my conceal carry permit in Oregon, the white "safety trainer" told people they should advise cops as a "courtesy" to the officer. I didn't bother telling him he lived on a different planet than black people in the U.S.

When people ask me about dealing with killer cops, I give them the same mantra that cops use: I'd rather be judged by 12 than carried by 6. Castile is dead because he gave the officer a courtesy. I've decided to live.
