Si cap persona tinguera una arma, Castile estaria viu, lliure de seguir cometent errades i estimant, odiant i creixent; Yanez ja hauria oblidat la nota que va escriure pel far posterior trencat, i Diamond Reynolds i la seua filla no estarien condemnats a tenir malsons la resta de les seues vides.
If neither man had had a firearm, Castile would be alive, free to keep making mistakes and loving and hating and growing, Yanez would have already forgotten about that ticket he wrote for the broken tail light, and Diamond Reynolds and her daughter would not be plagued by nightmares for the rest of their lives.
