Your history kind of reminds me of Golda Meir when she said. "Peace will come when the Arabs will love their children more than they hate us."
It's a matter of what you teach your children. If you teach them to respect the men and women tasked with protection. Instead of treating them like the enemy. You would save a lot of lives. When the leaders of BLM are calling police an instrument of slavery and advocating it's obliteration. It's no wonder we have bad encounters.
When you have riots and protests over 1 person getting shot by police. But don't know or see anything. When multiple people are killed by gang members. Nothing will change.
The indoctrination of hate/fear the police by parents. Is killing more and more each year.
Even if you want to educate on possible profiling by police. You can say it the right way.
"Son. You might be pulled over more often than a white boy. But if you follow instructions you'll be just fine. Police have a dangerous job. Don't give them a reason to fear your actions."
Now when I say fear. I don't mean fear for their lives. Though that is one example. I mean fear for public safety. The lives of others.

He shot at them.
He didn't have the gun in the final moments of his life but the cops didn't know that so he was shot.
If anyone thinks he was shot do to being black then you're a racist piece of fecal matter.
White, black or purple, the same thing happens to you when you make a armed cop fear for their lives and their partners life. You die. Period. End of discussion. Equal opportunity bullets for all.Phoenix Heavy Haul, nredfor88, drvrtech77 and 1 other person Thank this. -
Police Brutality has always been a problem. Probably overall much worse in the past. Like so many other social ills. Currently the perception is that it’s worse than ever. Cameras have helped expose things. It’s nothing new. Been going on forever. The fact that some Parents have to earn their kids about encountering the Police is no accident. It’s faded on real life facts and experience. Not Fairytale stories. The Fairytale version of the world, including the Good Ol Days, is so much more comforting. Reality can be disturbing. I prefer the Truth. Good bad and the ugly. 3 sides to every story.

To bad the cops didn’t shoot quicker in Texas …….
Chieftains, gentleroger and Rideandrepair Thank this. -
now that aside, my basic point is if you don’t try to fight the police, or charge at them, or put them in a situation that they have to make an instantaneous decision that they view as life or death, you’re probably going to be OK.
Back to the black guy that I was having a dispute with, he was a hard-nosed preacher in a church. And counseled a lot of young black guys and tried to help them get their lives straightened out. So he had kind of a hard-core mentality. He had explained that he had had many encounters with the police himself but he was always respectful and he himself really hadn’t had a problem. I asked him how many encounters., “I don’t know, probably over 100“. And I left them with this thought. In each of those instances you were an innocent citizen. If you were me do you think that number would be over 100? He agreed no it wouldn’t. I said my numbers probably 6-8 times and we are about the same age. Lolgentleroger and Rideandrepair Thank this. -
