I will try to be at Cincinnati city hall if anyone else wants to go.

Joe Porter, a black firearms instructor and Cincinnati host of this event, used to be a Facebook friend of mine - until he unfriended me without explanation.

I suspect it had to do with my response to one of his posts which included the suggestion that one place one's ID on one's dashboard during a traffic stop. I posted that I felt that doing so could very well be against a cop's training about reaching into a car, and might also be a Fourth Amendment violation. He deleted it - twice, I believe. The first time, I thought maybe I hadn't posted it properly. The second time, my post was removed and he'd unfriended me.

In general, and over time, I found him to be an individual with a chip on his shoulder.


btw, a video of the Castile encounter was recently released: http://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry...er-of-his-firearm_us_59498027e4b0177d0b8a1c97
