Philando Castile is the one that jumps to my mind.

I don't understand how this one happens, and if people wanted to take to the streets to protest his death, I'd have no issue with it (still wouldn't support defunding the police since that's obviously a braindead proposition).

I'll never understand why this one wasn't more of an issue. I guess it just wasn't divisive enough.

we don't know what happened in the philando castile case. there was no body cam footage for us to see what the officer saw. for all we know it could have been justified. all we saw was that messed up video with the girl's take on it

That's fair. I don't believe we saw anything to refute that either though, and the whole thing lasted like 45 seconds according to the dash cam.

To me though, this shooting was one that just about everybody could get upset about, but it just didn't get as much coverage.
