@Tom_Winter Ok, I'll grant that as a journalist you felt compelled to look this up. But why/how is this relevant? It's pure victim blaming.
A NBC News analysis of court documents shows that Philando Castile was pulled over by police 31 times since 2002 for traffic violations.

@Scott_Calvert@Tom_Winter Actually, shows how pervasive "crime" of driving while black is. 32 x since 2002 = more than once every 6 months - View other replies

@PAJ1711@Tom_Winter@MaddowBlog I think it has a lot to do with a cop killing him, as it shows the cops had a history of harassing him. - View other replies

@Tom_Winter@GottaLaff Executable offenses I presume. -
@kozy03@Tom_Winter When I saw that tweet, I saw it as revealing racial profiling, not blaming Castile. - View other replies

@GottaLaff@Tom_Winter Could be. But so often the victim is vilified after a shooting so I leaned in that direction. - View other replies
