I can safely ignore your demand.

It's obvious anything I post that proves the radical discrepancy in how POC are targeted, abused, and killed to the point where parents have to tell their children to be afraid of the cops before they tell them about sex ed

Agree with you, they are targeted more and arrested at an unfair rate. Shot a higher percent than white people. But I dont think telling your child you may get shot if the police stop you is rational advice.

In 2016 2.2 million black people were arrested, and somewhere around 240 were killed. So around .00011% chance of being killed by a cop after being stopped. I have to imagine several that were arrested didnt comply, yet were arrested and not killed. Obviously police brutality needs to stop, and cops need to be held accountable. But shouldnt be spreading fear that every cop is going to kill a poc if they get pulled over.

Edited to add something else. Around one hundred plus cops get killed each year and theres around 700,000 cops. Around a 1000 civilians get shot by cops each year, and theres over 300 million civilians.
