You are correct, white parents do not have the need for that sort of
talk because they have every expectation that their white children will
be treated with respect by law enforcement officer. That expectation is
usually satified. For black and brown parents, that expectation is all
to often not true.

Bull crap.

He tried to protect himself after he was accosted and threatened.

I did not suggest it -- I watched it.
