I don't know, but if they haven't they should. Those little rules work for everyone.
This white mom had the same conversation, too, with her white sons.
This article is garbage.
I didnt see any mention of parental irresponsibility, unwed dependent mothers, absent fathers, drug and alcohol abuse, domestic violence, encouraging glorifying and supporting the thug life and gang culture. I’ll have to read this again I must have missed it.
This article is trash. The reason blacks are incarcerated In greater numbers is really quite simple. They are committing more crimes. Numbers don’t lie!

This black person like millions of other blacks truly believes a black youth just walking down the street was for the second time around for no reason at all. Shot in the back and killed just because he was black by a white officer of the law.
Never mind the scores of whites,”hispanics”,and asians who may have wandered in or near black neighborhoods under the same conditions, they are of a different race, and for no reason at all have been attacked, maimed, and murdered. Because blacks are led to believe retaliation is justified.
Who is benefiting from generating such NAZI/COMMIE type divisive and inflamatory narrations which sets citizen against citizen ? And why are they not held accountable ?
Why aren’t the venues used for these messages de-edificed cables hacked,reporters sued and publicly trashed ?
Could the answer be any suggestion of impeachment is out of the question because blacks would create civil unrest ?.
Every mother of any color tells their children to be polite when interacting with police {or any one in authority}.
In this woman's mind, everything is about race, and she has no sorrow for the thousands of black kids slaughtered annually by other blacks, but her heart is broken because a white policeman shot a thug.
The bitch is the very definition of RACIST.
This not a hard one to answer. Once again we have lost another young, black man at the hands of a police officer.
Can’t be the death since many black males have slaughtered other black males since the killing of Brown so it MUST be the cop. I have no sympathy for such sensibilities. Add in the apparent circumstances of Browns death and that kinda pushes things well over the top.
I find it disturbing that so many black people identify with a thug. Just violently robbed a store for some cheap cigars (which were probably intended for drugs) then assaulted a policeman. Also did rap about “beating p***y” and other noble pursuits.
The tragedy is what black culture an enabling welfare state does to young black men. That is disturbing.
Percentage-wise, how many white mothers have to be concerned that their child is a budding hood/thug/criminal and likely to be scrutinized due to sheer statistics?
What bothers me the most is that these two families have tried to portray their children as perfect in deportment; when in reality they were both bullies and thieves.
And, in both cases, they delivered personal blows to another person before they were shot.
According to the National Crime Victimization Survey, in 2010,
—62,593 blacks were the victims of white violence.
During that same year,
—320,082 whites were the victims of black violence.
That’s five times as many violent attacks, but that number is misleading, since the black and white populations are not the same size.
When 38 million black Americans commit five times as many violent crimes on 197 million whites as they receive, what you discover is that black perpetrators violently assault White victims TWENTY-FIVE times more frequently.
When it comes to a specific kind of violent crime — aggravated assault — the number of black on white crimes is TWO HUNDRED TIMES HIGHER than white on black crimes.
Oh, there’s an epidemic of racial violence in America, all right.

About one hundred black males are shot and killed by leos every year. Of course, a number of those shootings involve black cops shooting black males. About 6,000-7000 black males are shot and killed every year by other black males. That makes the chances of a young, black male being killed by another young, black male far higher than being shot by a white cop. The woman is an ignorant fool.
Here’s an idea...try to stop obsessing about your skin color and OURS.
You have a no idea how old and tiresome it is.
Which is a miniscule fraction of those killed at the hands of black criminals. Oh, and Trayvon and Michael? They were blacks committing unprovoked criminal assaults on the men that shot them. Had they chose to NOT commit assault, they would still be alive. But somehow to the racial grievance industry, it's the fault of Zimmerman and Wilson for defending themselves from assault.
It is the dads that should be doing that.
I'm on a first name basis with all the police I have ever been pulled over by.
His/her name is "Officer".
It still works.
I had that conversation with each of my kids when they learned to drive.
I even arranged for my daughter to get pulled over the day she got her permit.
Yea, I’m baaaad.
AS long as her 14 year old son doesn’t blowout the Orbital Socket of a police officer and try to take his gun, or pound the head of an armed Neighborhood Watch volunteer, her kid should be just fine.
Check out the comments at the link. Wow.
I must admit that, after reading this, I do have the urge to insert this into every single thread about the Ferguson "incident" that I come across. I won't, but I sure want to.

Hi everybody. I’m Bill Whittle and this is the Firewall.
Before we get into the bigger picture – of which the ongoing rioting in Furguson, Missouri is merely a symptom – let’s just be crystal clear about something.
IF it turns out that a police officer shot Michael Brown as he was standing still, his hands in the air, as his defenders claim, then that police officer needs to be charged with murder, and he needs to go to jail for the rest of his life.
But that doesn’t seem like what happened at all. This story is still unfolding and new details are being revealed every day. I’m not going to speculate on how Michael Brown’s life actually came to an end. But I am going to talk about what happened before and after.
Michael Brown has been repeatedly referred to in the media as a “gentle giant,” and an “unarmed black teen.”
Here’s surveillance video of the gentle giant, taken a short time before the shooting, stealing a handful of cigars and then gently strong arming the store owner out of his way.
So why is it that the Attorney General, appointed by the President of the United States of America, put intense political pressure on the Ferguson Police Department to suppress this standard, ordinary surveillance video - a video, by the way, that caused the destruction of this man’s store and left him fearing for his life. Well, we’ll get to that in a moment.
Defenders of Michael Brown say that this is an attempt to criminalize him and therefore deflect attention from the police shooting. Really? That kind of casual violence, that sense of entitlement, that utter disrespect for the law or another human being – don’t take my word for it; the evidence is right there in front of your eyes – that attitude has nothing to do with the police claim that he was charging the officer when he was shot? This doesn’t shed some doubt on the story of a gentle, innocent, “unarmed black teen” assassinated by the police while his hands were in the air for the crime of being black?
Let’s cut to the chase here. Spokesmen for the protestors rioting in Ferguson and St. Louis – and, in fact, a large percentage of the general population -- claim that there is an epidemic of white on black crime, of white cops shooting unarmed black teens. Is that, in fact, happening?
According to the FBI, there were 408,217 robberies in 2009. That’s about 1100 a day, or in round numbers, about once a minute, 24 hours a day. That means a thousand times a day the police are called, a thousand times a day arrests are made and in general terms the events leading up to the shots being fired in Ferguson Missouri happen about one thousand times PER DAY.
So if there’s this epidemic of white policemen executing innocent black males, why do we only hear about a case like this every few years? And why do most of those cases – like this one – seem to end up with extenuating circumstances? And why do the few cases that don’t have extenuating circumstances end up with the offending officers in jail? If this is an epidemic – where’s the epidemic? 30,000 commercial flights land safely each day in America. They don’t make the news either.
So. Is there an epidemic of racial violence loose in America today?
There is.
According to the National Crime Victimization Survey, in 2010, 62,593 blacks were the victims of white violence. During that same year, 320,082 whites were the victims of black violence. That’s five times as many violent attacks, but that number is misleading, since the black and white populations are not the same size. When 38 million black Americans commit five times as many violent crimes on 197 million whites as they receive, what you discover is that black perpetrators violently assault White victims TWENTY-FIVE times more frequently. When it comes to a specific kind of violent crime -- aggravated assault -- the number of black on white crimes is TWO HUNDRED TIMES HIGHER than white on black crimes . Oh, there’s an epidemic of racial violence in America, all right.
Reporter and author Colin Flaherty has taken a cold, clear-eyed view of the statistics that don’t make the news because they are suppressed by the news. He reports, for example -- again in 2010 -- the National Crime Victimization Survey reported approximately 13,000 black-on-white rapes and 39,000 black-on-white robberies – both violent crimes. The statistics show that the number of white on black rapes and violent robberies were so small that they had to be rounded to the nearest whole number, and that whole number was ZERO.
Critics will say that I am using these statistics to justify the murder of Michael Brown. But I said at the beginning – if Michael Brown were shot in cold blood then the police officer needs to pay the price for murder. This has nothing to do with Michael Brown. This has EVERYTHING to do with the narrative that the President, the Attorney General, and all of these race hustlers are trying to create using Michael Brown.
There is, in fact, a racial war of violence and hatred in America. Open racism is simply not tolerated in white America today, but black racism is the toxic glue that holds the progressive coalition together. Tolerance of – in fact, as we see from the events in Ferguson, open encouragement of black rage at a narrative that not only does not exist but reverses the daily outrages that do exist, is what defines modern progressivism. It is the politics of envy, anger, entitlement, lawlessness, violence and bald-faced lies.
And of all the promises broken by this man, surely none is more heartbreaking than the one promise that got him elected in the first place: the promise of a post-racial future. He and his racist progressive cohorts can never surrender the weapon that has gotten them everything, not the least of which is personal political power and trillions of dollars of redistributed wealth. And this latest outrage in Furguson is yet another example – as if another was needed among the economic wreckage, creeping totalitarianism, and foreign-policy disasters -- that he and his leftist cohorts would rather rule over ruins than disappear into the dustbin of a healthy and healed nation.
