mr. castile? >> well, i didn't -- i don't -- i didn't see my nephew a lot, but when i did, we always talked. my questions for him most of the time was, how's your job going, how are you doing? you know, the last time i seen my nephew was on mother's day when i invited my sisters and nieces to my house on mother's day. philando, diamond, and the baby came over. we ended up talking about retirement, you know. what kind of money he's putting away for his retirement and things like that. because i'm a firm believer in getting set up, you know, for those twilight years and having some money. he got a really good start with the school district, you know, with the deferred comp and things of that nature. he could have been stacking up. >> i encouraged him to get one job, stay on that one job, and retire from it, especially if they have good benefits. and that's what they do. >> but that was my last conversation with philando, on mother's day. >> mrs. castile, it sounds like you gave him all the right adv

mr. castile. that was your comment a few minutes ago. i could hear the police union in the back of my head saying, well, how do we know that. i ask you, are you prejudging this based on the aftermath that you have seen in the video, and do you believe that unfairly is establishing the framework from which we go forward in the public discussion of this? >> i said at the outset, i don't know if there is any footage. i have not seen anything that relates to the incident before the -- that video began. i'm talking to you based on the information i have at this point. as mrs. dohman said, a complete and thorough investigation is under way and it needs to be completed and all the facts need to be brought to light. i am responding to just what -- 16, 18 hours after this terrible tragedy occurred. but it is a terrible tragedy, and my feelings about it and my sense of outrage for what occurred is very real, and if that needs to be modified based on further information, i'll modify it. but that's according to -- this is how i assess it and this is

mr. castile is reaching for his wallet or anything before the shooting. i can hear the police, you are saying no act of aggression. how do you know that m. >> relates to the incident before the video began. view based on information i have at this point. all of that thorough complete investigation underway and needs to be completed and all facts need to be brought to light. i am responding just 16 hours after this terrible tragedy occurred. it is a terrible tragedy and my feelings about it and my sense of outrage for what occurred is very real. and that needs to be modified based on further information i will modify it. at this point this is how i assess it and what i believe. >> want to know what direct action are you prepared to take. you mention the moment of the stop. what actions are you prepared to take to reduce number of traffic stops when it comes to people of color? >> in this instance very short period of time we contacted the white house chief of staff, special assistant at the white house, assistant u.s. attorney general. spoke with senator f

mr. castile and he had advised the officer. >> and the nra made the argument that black people should be anti-gun control because of the amount of gun violence in black communities. so this actually stands in a palpable and emotional opposition to that very argument. >> then the argument is the only way you can defend yourself -- >> is with a firearm. >> -- is with a firearm. yet when a police encounters a firearm, then you are a threat, and these two men have been killed punitively because they were armed. >> what's critically important here, the notion of implicit bias, that the president referred to in his speech. which is that we have to take into account, as we think about improving policing in this country, the way in which sometimes even unconscious racial stereotypes impact the decisions police officers may make in a split second and how they interpret the information they are getting. and it's deeply troubling. it is also very different how you respond to that kind of problem, that over racism. they're both important t

mr. castile.hat reynolds, miss reynolds says she was brought to the police department, she was held several hours, dropped off at 5:00 in the morning. and that police chief says, you know what, that's not true. he was held for two hours, given money, $40 out of his own wallet to give food and water and interviewed in a soft interview room. she had teddy bears, there were coloring books and blankets as well. >> appreciate it, thanks very much. before air i spoke with the chief rick mathweight of the minnesota police department. chief, your account of what happened with miss reynolds, her interaction with your department, why do you think it differs so much from her account of what happened? >> well, it's a very least it was a chaotic situation. i have no idea what it's like to have someone shot in the car next to me. so i don't know what was going through to her mind because there has to have been a fog of shock. a fog of chaos. so when that happens, it's very difficult for the brain to comprehend.

mr. castile. this case has nothing to do with race. and everything to do with the presence of a gun. >> in the video castile's girlfriend says they warned the officer he had a firearm and license to carry. >> i would like for that police officer to look me in my eyes, look me in my eyes officer, my hands are up. why? >> no justice, no peace. >> reporter: in baton rouge, louisiana overnight tense moments when up to 1,000 protesters stared down police over the death of another black man, that shooting partially caught on video this week. at one point during last night's protest an officer appeared to draw his gun. baton rouge police say they are reviewing the video. they acknowledge tensions were high but cooler heads prevailed. president obama today did reference the gun in the car here in minnesota saying even though it was licensed, the prevalence of guns in america makes all of us less safe. he says it adds to tensions between police and the public. >> that debate heating up. blake, thank you for that report. after this week's shootin

mr. castile was pulled over 52 times since 2002.see this through the lens of their own personal beliefs. some people see that and say, look, he's got a police record, others see that and say, wait a minute, pulled over 52 times since 2002, and half of those cases were tossed out, that's racial profiling. >> well, does seem even a lot to me, anderson, 52 times in that amount of years. >> meaning that? >> i tell you, i worked in harlem for probably four years and another black neighborhood for about four years, i don't think i ever pulled the same person over, maybe twice. that's it. >> this, what, raises questions about the police or about this mr. castile? >> i don't know how to look at it. definitely looks suspicious. maybe the police knew him as somebody who always drives without a license and they were looking to, you know, get their quota at the end of the month and figured, listen, i see him, let's pull him over because i know his license is suspended, i don't know, but 52 times sounds a little excessive to me and, you know, i

mr. castile. i wanted to be a part of the movement. i wanted to teach my son that we have rights in this country and we can express our frustration in a positive way. >> what did you think when you heard the shots? >> why? i thought, we just made a grave mistake. we set the american rights back many years, human race back many years by allowing this to happen. >> are you afraid with what happens from now on? >> i'm not afraid at all. i'm cautious. i'm prepared. i'm preparing. but i'm not afraid. being afraid only causes the person to act irrationally. that's the biggest problems between african-americans and the police is that we're both afraid of one another so we act irrationally. >> what's the message for police? >> love their families, first of all. make sure their family knows they love them every day before they leave the house. what's the message i don't want them to take is to be afraid of african-american men. i don't want them to think we don't want them to do their job as long as they're doing their job within the confines o

mr. castile, i wanted to be a part of a movement, i wanted to teach my son that we have rights in this countrye can express our frustration in a positive way. >> what did you think when you heart the shots? >> why? i thought, we just made a grave mistake, we set the african-american race back, we set the human race back many years by allowing this to happen. >> are you afraid now at all? >> i'm not afraid, i'm cautious but not afraid. i think people who are afraid act irration irrationally. >> what's the message that police can take from this? >> love their family, make sure their family knows they love them every day before they leave the house. the message i don't want them to take is to be afraid of african-american men. i don't want them to think that we don't want them to do their jobs as long as they're doing their jobs within the confines of the law. >> and you don't want your son is to be afraid of police? >> i don't want him to be afraid of police at all. >> to go from peace, to go from joy, from being inspired to horror that unfolded the way it did. life is fragile. >>> when we come

mr. castille, to stand here and her name mr. castille had a girlfriend and a 4-year-old girl in the car. so i believe what we have offered today i will reinforce. the judiciary committee will be getting a letter will be asking for full hearings on this. in houston three people were killed on july 4 on the basis of dealing with gun violence. we have been addressing gun violence this week in a bipartisan multicultural way. we have fought bipartisan support. it is imperative that we are able to say to america that the gun violence that comes under the color of law cannot continue. we cannot have michael scott, walter brown, philando castile, and alton sterling and many others and lost in our district. we have introduced law-enforcement and integrity act which deals with the question of training for police officers. we need the national police leadership to recognize this is not an indictment of all the police officers that many of us call 911. it is a recognition that there is a fracture in the training of 21st century police as opp

mr. castile. ed press is reporting that that attorney said that the officer believed he, castile, was a possible match for a robbery suspect, indicating there was more of a reason, they're saying, to pull him over than a broken taillight. you say to that? >> and i will say that the audiotape that was released has not been authenticated by the police department. so i don't know what was on that tape. again, i'm going to be very careful not to respond without actually knowing what's on the table. let's just say for a moment that the tape is authentic in the sense that the description was a broad nose. that's what's been widely reported. that's a description that fits a lot of african-american men. even if he stopped him, even if he stopped him thinking that he was a suspect in a felon, this is a man who was complying. he had a permit to carry a gun. he had a valid driver's license. he had car insurance. this man had never been charged with a felony. and somehow from that, poppy, we find someone who i

mr. castile. this heartbreaking incident had nothing to do with race, it had to do with the presence of a gun. at demonstrations in minnesota a call for change. >> we're serious. we need a change. before even more things start to happen. worse things. >> the officers involved from this police department are now on paid leave as this investigation rolls on. this as police here and across the country expect even more protests. cecelia. >> thank you. now to the grief in dallas as a community mourns the loss of five of their own. here they are. you see their faces. they're fathers, husbands, veterans and phillip mena tells us about who they were and the families they left behind. >> reporter: tonight rick's only comfort telling his son's story. >> that's in kuwait. officer patrick zamarripa leaving the military to become a police officer. >> we were so proud of him. >> his little girl now without her dad. >> officer brent thompson remembered by his kids and fellow officers as a hero. >> he was running

mr. castile and mourn mr. sterling and we mourn all of those and we ask that the nation sees us as leaders of peace. we are asking the speaker of the house, and asking the majority leader to now realize that an ar-15 does not discriminate. it finds itself in the hearts and the bodies of many that we love. and so we're calling on the passage of no fly, no buy. we are calling on the passage of closing the loophole but also calling on the passage of bringing together of police and community, the law enforcement and integrity act. we hope there will be round tables of discussions between police and community and we will be in the midst of those discussions calling upon peace and then finally let me say, we cannot do this without resources, resources for police, resources for young people in pain, resources for community. we are fighting for monies that are needed to bring our communities together. i'll join with congressman conyers on the judiciary committee to fight for legislation that will respond to the needs

mr. castille, this horrific vision of this andn who with utter calm composure is narrating what happens while there is a police officer holding a gun to her and her loved one is dying in front of her. and thend she is calm officer is not. jelani: the exact opposite of what you might expect in that situation where someone sees their fiancÉe shot and they become hysterical and the professional person, their training kicks in and they become calm but that is not what happened. and even more terrible idea here is that perhaps she was driven by a concern that she not do anything that might trigger him to fire again and also there is a four-year old girl in the car. all of it compounds into something too horrible to really think about. miles: let's talk about the political system. fundamental lack of faith in the system. donald trump frequently talking about the system being rigged, reinforcing peoples believe that the system is not in it for them. the fact there is a so little faith in the system, how much does this add to the toxic nature of this? many peoplee are with legitimate grievances about

mrs. castile. >> reporter: hundreds of protests across the country. officers rushed in and cornered the suspect and killed 25-year-old micah xavier johnson. an army reservist who spent time in afghanistan told police he wanted to kill white officers in the wake of couldn't verse yell police-involved shootings. he also said he acted alone but investigators aren't so sure. at least three people are still being held by dallas police in connection with the everyone involved to justice. >> reporter: many gathering for a new prayer service from the killing spree. >> we will not shy away from the real fact that we as a city, as a state, as a nation are struggling with racial issues. >> reporter: and dallas mayor mike rawlings says this time, after this shooting, things have got to change. >> this is on my generation of leaders. it is on our watch that we have allowed this to continue to fester. >> reporter: boiling over in downtown dallas during the deadliest attack on law enforcement since 9/11. now back to the three suspects in custody here, dallas police

mr. castille and tried to save his life. >> crowds linked arms to block the road during rush hour.are high as the country seeks to better protect citizens and police officers alike. one day after memorializing five police officers killed in dallas, they met with community leaders, activists, to discuss solutions for a nation at a turning point. >> now a update on that man hunt that you mentioned, a law enforcement source tells us there is every indication there is a fourth suspect out there and they're actively looking for that person. there are still two guns taken from the pawnshop that are missing. this is just one of two credible threats. one of the officers reported having been followed by someone suspicious. we don't have many details about how that incident unfolded. it is credible enough they're dedicating resources to it, so it is something they're clearly worried about, jake. >> okay, a nation on edge, thank you. >>> she understands the racial tension in america, but she is not apologizing for her support of the police. he have join us next. >>> then the uk has a new prim

mr. castile lost his life, because i thought, that could be my brother. till we get to that point, until we get to that point where officers say, hey, that's wrong. let's stand up to this. we will be at the same place. >> two very articulate, smart, powerful, emotional men of color tonight on this broadcast. one of them telling you, corporal pope, that there is an issue within the police department, another surgeon who treated those officers, saying, as a black man, he feels threatened by police when he's not in the hospital wearing a white coat. something has changed, has shifted in dallas, texas and maybe across this country, now, martin. >> reporter: right, and i think we've heard a number of people allude to it, just now. tipping point, or that we stand at this brink of some chasm. we can pafall apart or come together. and i think they're all right, we need to have very frank discussions. otherwise, we've seen, and we're already seeing every night the potential of what lies ahead. and it doesn't look good. so words are the weapons that should be used

mr. castile as well as alton sterling. >> reporter: protesting the police shootings across the country.shots continued to ring out, more officers rushed in, cornering and ultimately killing a suspect, 25-year-old micah xavier johnson using a bomb detonation. johnson told police he wanted to kill white officers in the wake of recent controversial police-involved shootings. authorities now say they believed johnson was the lone

mrs. castile will be the first to say that violence of any kind is not acceptable. but until we willing to put in on work on this, and i have said to move to rhetoric we're going to continue to be polar rised and to look at each other with distrust and we can't live like this. we just can't continue to live like this. so our hash tag in the press conference today that this time -- you know, we're talking about a man who was doing right, who had a job, who wasn't trying to fight with the police, who wasn't a felon running and he was loved by his family and was permitted to have a gun and now he's dead. so we're saying this time -- and he did it all correctly. this time must be the last time. and if we don't work toward that, then we are going to continue to have this vicious cycle, in my opinion. >> i know, val i don't understand how you're doing it. b but. >> that's correct. >> what do you want people to know about that and about what this process is like? >> the process is very hard. but you have to have faith in god and that way it makes it a little bit marreesier

mr. castile as well as alton sterling. >> reporter: protesting the police shootings across the country. as the shots continued to ring out, more officers rushed in, cornering and ultimately killing a suspect, 25-year-old micah xavier johnson using a bomb detonation. johnson told police he wanted to kill white officers in the wake of recent controversial police-involved shootings. authorities now say they believed johnson was the lone carrying out the attack. >> we won't rest until we bring everyone involved to justice. >> reporter: justice and healing that thousands are looking for here. many gathering for a noon prayer service not far from the scene of the killing spree. >> we will not shy away from the very real fact that we as a city, as a state, as a nation are struggling with racial issues. >> the sniper is up here somewhere. >> reporter: the struggle that exploded overnight. and the deadliest attack on law enforcement since 9/11. now, back to the three suspects in custody, police will not discuss what, if any, role they may have played in the ambush. they say it's too early in the

mr. castile was the 123rd african-american to be killed by law enforcement. excuse for last week's vicious murders of five police officers in dallas but the knowledge that mr. sterling's and mr. castile's deaths come on long list of senseless killings of black men, women and children whose encounters with the police might have gone differently had they not been black must spur us to take. "black lives matter" is not hashtag but imperative. i appreciate the work your department is doing in this regard and i hope you keep us informed on that but i want to go to a different matter, related unfortunately, exactly one month ago today, a lone gunman killed 49 people and wounded more than 50 others in lgbt nightclub in orlando. mass shootings are now all too common occurrence in this country n 2016 there were 229 mass shootings, defined as one as shootings in which at least four people are shot of the as you know, every day an average, nearly 300 americans are shot in murders, assaults, suicide attempts, accidents and police station, police actions. 48 are children

mr. castile. this case has nothing to do with the race and everything to do with the gun. g cured when castile was reaching into his back pocket to pull out identification for per the officer's request. castile told the officer he has a permit for a gun and he has a gun. immediately after the shooting, minnesota's governor mark dayton said he believed that had castile been a white man the outcome would have been different. there was racial issues at play here. he got a lot of pushback from law enforcement calling the remarks irresponsible. when i followed with the governor, he's standing by those. >> do you standby the remarks? >> i said them. i said them. i'm not going to back and rehash what i said yesterday. i standby what i said yesterday based on the information i had. >> the best piece of evidence you would have in a case like this is a body camera on the officer. unfortunately saint anthony police don't have body cameras. we won't have the direct point of view of the officer's. we have dash cam video with audio. the police cars were parked behind castile's car. we're

mr. castile were justified. the answer is not in retaliation or hate. too many of us want to hate.e decided, i know there are people that want to hate. i am going to have to love or want to love as desperately as they want to hate. >> having lost a brother, you know what loss feels like and what these families are going through. >> i hate it for the families, not just for the officers and not just for the african-americans, the countless african-americans that are losing their lives to police brutality and murders. i hate it for these families. it is an emptiness around the holidays. my brother's birthday is july 12th. i'm already feeling the sting just now anticipating it. sometimes we are unempathetic. i hate to hear someone say, that's what those cops get, that's what those pigs get. how can you have those percepti perceptions. >> i have friends that are police officers and friends that sell drugs and friends in the clergy. i don't want any of them to lose their life. i don't want any child my son's age for their mother or father to tell them that mommy or daddy is never coming

mr. castile was if 123rd african-american to be killed by law enforcement this year.urse, no excuse for last woke's vicious murders of five police officers in dallas. the knowledge that mr. steering's and mr. castile's death come among the long list whose encounters with police might have gone differently had they not been black, mist spur us to act. i appreciate the work you are doing and your department is doing in this regard, and i hope you'll keep us informed on that. i want to go to a different matter, related unfortunately, exactly one month ago today, a lone gunman killed 49 people and wounded more than 50 others in an lgbt nightclub in orlando. mass shootings are an all-too-common occurrence in this country. in 2016, 229 mass shootings, defined as when at least four people are shot. every day nearly 300 americans are shot in murders, assaults, sue said attempts, accidents and police actions. 48 are children and teenagers. this is a distinctly american problem. more than 33,000 americans lose their lives to gun violence each year. in the united kingdom in 2011

mr. castile was not in the city of st.t if you look at the work we have done in the city of st. paul, we are second to none in terms of the relationship and work we have down. we have done deses kalation naning. built incredible relationships the in our community of color. i want to show how we can do this in other departments. st. a saint pz ant anthony village, i'm not sure they have been able to do a deep dive on some of that work. >> does that mean that that smaller city that didn't have the training that your police officers do, do you believe they made a mistake when they shooting took place with ph philando castile? >> i don't think you can look at that and not be concerned. they looking at that and refer that for any potential charges for the county attorney who i know will look at that very long and hard. if there's any need to press charges there i know he will do that but we'll leave the individual case for the investigation. i think we immediate to focus on what we are seeing across the country, the violence in

mr. castile and sterling and especially for police who are on the line every day and i think the los angeles will be very useful in informing the discussion going forward. what happened in los angeles after those riots and what needs to happen across the united states and other police departments. >> i was in los angeles at that time and remember every minute. let's talk about your reactions to the shootings in dallas and you have spoken out in defense of the second amendment. >> of course. i am a big supporter. your previous guest who was very, very well spoken -- >> unfortunately, it's a bit of a loss here. hang on just a moment as i'm going to have to cut you off. here's the president. >> it is my third visit to poland. each time, we have been received with tremendous friendship and it signifies the close bonds between our two countries. i want to begin this press conference with events back home. this has been a tough week. first and foremost for the families who have been killed. but also for the entire american family. in my call yesterday to attorney general lynch, i stressed that the

mr. castile both dead as a result. and there will be thorough investigations.t we have to go to a different -- we have to move to higher ground. i of course know more about my case than i know about mr. sterling's case. but in our case we have a man who was permitted to carry a license. there is a legal permit. i have seen it. he was gainfully employed. he was adored by the children in the school where he worked, his coworkers and family talked about the fact that they had never even known him to have ever even been in a fight. so we have a man who's doing everything right. he is pulled over, he's asked for documentation. and then later very quickly he is shot to death. and there are some real concerns. and i am very honored to be representing the castile family in this matter. i really am. >> i want to talk a lot more about that and some new tape and possible video we have. we have to take a quick commercial break. stay with us. >> sure. >> judge glenda hatchet will be returning discussing the philando castile case and more on the other side of the break. from

mr. castile volunteers the fact that he's armed. if the police officer says just keep your hands where i can see them, don't move. and if he does this -- hang on a second -- at that point -- >> that's not what they're saying happened. >> hang on. hold on. let me just get with you. you're not saying that this doesn't look bad. >> of course it looks bad. by the way, this may be a police officer who just overreacted, was acting in a way that's not consistent with training or the law. >> not an excuse. >> not an excuse. what i'm suggesting, for me to be in his shoes i have to see what he sees -- if i tell a guy, listen, you have a weapon? don't make a move. keep your hands where i can see them. guy says, no, i have a license -- what do i do? now by the way, the answer -- one of the answers is, better training, better positions, tactic tactically. it gives you more time. was this avoidable? i believe, yes. was it justified? i can't say. >> here's why i have a problem accepting that at face value. while i can concede that officers of the

mr. castile and mr. sterling.e years and years of things that have been happening to men and women across the country. and so this is a culmination of the frustration and the hurt. and for some people, the anger. but many black americans are living in a traumatic situation, be it economic trauma, trauma from the police, trauma from, you know, the failure of the american quality to product an equitable system. some have been able to absolve themselves from a very important conversation. >> do you think the conversations have been made more real because of cell phone video and social media and the reality of what many black americans face is being put out there for all to see. >> right. unfortunately, these behaviors are not new. these interactions with the please state are not new. these are generations long. we have to think about sort of the history of why we have policing in this country in the first place. and so if we go from that starting point, we do know it is not just about body cameras. cell phone cameras

mr. castile, this woman is narrating what is happening while a police officer is holding a gun to her and her loved one is dying in front of her. >> o'brien: and she's calm and the officer is not. >> she's calm and the officer is not. the exact opposite of what you might expect in a situation where someone sees their fiancÉe shot and they become hysterical and the professional person, you know, their training kicks in and they become calm. that's not what happened in this circumstance. the more terrible idea here is perhaps she was driven by a concern that she not do anything that night trigger him to fire again and also there is a 4-year-old girl that's in the car. all of it compounds into something that's too horrible to really think about. >> o'brien: let's talk about the political system as we get to the end here. the fundamental lack of faith in the system, donald trump talking about the system being rigged, reinforcing the people's belief the system is not it in for them, the fact there is so little faith in the system, how much does this add to the toxic nature of this? >> i think

mr. castile used to joke with in the cafeteria, they're going to come in now and where is he? to him? we owe it to sergeant smith, all the kids at the church where he used to watch the playground every day. what happened to sergeant smith? we owe it to them to settle some of this. and this back and forth and -- i mean, we really got to -- as a dear friend of mine who today had a mass at his house. he's celebrating. his name is detective steven mcdonald. celebrating the 30th anniversary of when he was shot and paralyzed below the neck. he's still alive. his wife pregnant with their first and only child when he was shot. he marked that event by forgiving the kid who shot him. now his son's a police officer. every morning when conner's going out to work, steven's sitting there in his wheelchair paralyzed from the neck down, think safe, think tactics and his kid goes out there. we can't forget him. we can't forget daedae. and it's a horrible things happen. we have these unbelievably good people in this country. >> i think you said it. >> that's it. >> we owe it to our children. mi

mr. castile's. you take a look at his driving record. he has an awful lot of stops. it suggests a pattern of very aggressive policing. >> reporter: the attorney of the shooting officer told cnn in a statement that the tragic incident had nothing to do with race and everything to do with the presence of a gun. >> he just killed my [ bleep ] boyfriend. he's licensed to carry. he was trying to get out his i.d. and his wallet out. >> reporter: minnesota law enforcement tells cnn that the law prohibits them from confirming to the media in castile had a license to carry a gun. a police commander who knows nanez. >> an all-around nice guy, to tell you the truth. >> reporter: as you take a look around me, you can see that the memorial at the shooting scene keeps growing. the state agency in charge tells me that they have finished interviewing all of the police officers involved, erin. to this point no u.s. doj investigation. we do know that the u.s. doj is assisting this state agency. >> rosa, thank you very much. >> in the hours after that shooting, karen bass appeared on a

mr. castile. her strength, her compose sure was incredibly remarkable.many people can't understand where that comes from. many of us know where it comes from, in the same way we now are faced about learning evacuation plans and going through drills to prepare ourselves for disaster, the black community has been doing that forever. we know that in those situations, if we want to come out of it alive, if we want to come out of it intact and live to tell the story of that brutality, we need to act in a certain way. we talk about the talk. it is really preparation for these acts of terror by law enforcement that are rogue and really facing ram pid pair know ya as we saw in that video. we have to prepare ourselves for that, unfortunately, and that should not be the preparation that any resident or citizen of this country has to undergo. >> we'll have to go to breaking news in dallas, where there are reports of shots fired after a demonstration there over the deadly-officer involved shootings in louisiana and minnesota. witnesses have said one dallas police of

mr. castille and apparently had a permit to carry a weapon and yet he e s shot by an officer of the statee can easily imagine t that if philando castile had not been black, if you have been white, for example, there would have been outrage expressed by the nra. this helps solidify the point i have been making, which is you cannot disconnect the history of the second amendment in lobbying for it from the history of white supremacy. amy: talk more about the ku klux klan, historian gerald horne. >> the ku klux klan not only was it just organization that was formed after the was civil war to deprive black people of the right to vote, but keep in mind, it of the second duration in the post world war i era about 100 years ago. in fact, controlled may statehouses and marked in thee tens of thohousands on washshgt, d.c.. it was a popular mass-based organization and i daresay the sesentiment the ku klux klan expressed about a century ago has yet to be extirpated from society. amy: as you look at what is happening today, president obama in dallas. you teach at the university of houstston, holding a

mr. castile was the 123rd african american to be killed by law enforcement this year. that is of course no excuse for last week's vicious murders of five police officers in dallas. but the knowledge that mr. sterling's and mr. castile's deaths come on the heels of a long list of senseless killings of black men, women and children whose encounters with the police might have gone differently had they not been black must spur us to take action. black lives matter is not a hash tag, it is an imperative. i appreciate the work that you are doing and your department is doing in this regard. and i hope you'll keep us informed on that. but i want to go to a different matter, related ununfortunately. one month ago today a lone gunmen in orlando. mass shootings now an all too common occurrence in this country. in 2016, there were 229 mass shootings defined as shootings in which at least four people are shot. as you know, every day on average nearly 300 americans are shot and murders and suicide attempts, accidents and police actions. 48 of them are children and teenagers. this is

mr. castile would not have happened and he had been white?ecretary johnson that we need to know all the facts, we need a swift investigation by the burr bureau of referred for charges if any to the county attorney, but you can't look at what happened in that situation and not be concerned about it. we've recognized in the city of st. paul that too often race does play a factor in policing. in communities across the country. that's why we've done deep dives on racial equity work. all of our officers being trained in how to make sure we're not racially profiling, working closely with the naccp and other african american leaders to make sure we're listening to them, changing our policies and practices as it relates to that. but you know, i think it's an appropriate question to ask, we need to have the facts play out before we make a final decision. >> mr. mayor, thank you, thanks very much. our best to you as the city and the state of minnesota try to deal with this issue. thank you very much. >> thank you. >>> and coming up, the country still o
