Or, as Al Sharpton would say, he's an 'uncle tom' sell out tryin' to act white - that's why the cop treated him nice.

Immigrant. So her son was probably respectful towards the cops. Only native Blacks have these problems. Immigrant Blacks run circles around them, and don't whine about racism. I know Blacks from Nigeria and Trinidad who came to my town 20 years ago and now are among its biggest employers. They someone did it despite White Privilege.
I see that the story is in the Daily Mail. There does not look like the story has been covered here.
They probably know what real oppression is firsthand and realize that America is paradise compared to their home country.
A Virginia Tech student? I'd bet he didn't say 'mofo' once, but spoke good English and was respectful, instead of gibbering ghetto slang with a chip on his shoulder. If he had a hat, I'd bet it was on with the front to the front.
I see that too. It does not fit the American media narrative.
It is news on the backstreets of social media, but not the mainstream.
I stop all the time to help out my black brothers all the time. The media would have you believe all white people are closet KKK’ers
We have to get this from the British press because it won’t fit the agenda of the cop hating American media.
I have a family living next to me that emigrated from Ghana also, they are hard working, both in the medical field, have 3 kids they are raising and the oldest is now in college. I also have “American” blacks living on the other side, can’t/won’t take care of their yard, our HOA put their house in pre-forclosure last year for being in arrears with their annual fees and I believe they run(an illegal) babysitting service out of their home from time to time..........the comparison between the 2 families is truly very telling in regards to what people that want to succeed in this country will do versus lazy people that are from this country originally and think they are owed everything. It’s really and interesting observation in human behavior, and a little frustrating at times. The emigrant neighbors are the best I have ever had.
“It isn’t about color, it is about culture.”
you said a mouthful right there.
My office was across the street from Marcus Allen’s condo (Raiders and Chiefs); he drove a nifty red Ferrari, and would get pulled over somewhat regularly by the po-lice.
Simply amazing. This family is actually African, and their kids names are Andrew, Joseph and Krystle.
Her assumption that most white cops would assume the car was stolen is a microaggression against white people. /s

British news outlets do a better job on most issues than our domestic sources do.
Brits picked this up a few hours ago. CBS had it a day ago, and local Virginia tv stations had it two days ago.
Looks can be deceiving. My DIL was in a Home Depot parking lot and a very clean cut, well dressed black guy approached her as she was putting items in the trunk of her convertible car. He said, “let me take that cart for you”. Then it got scary, she got in the car and so did he, ordered her to drive. Long story, but she survived by gunning the car to the front of the store and screamed for help. Then it got more interesting. The guy had an arrest record a mile long, however, he was a great looking guy.
Like he’s going to ask the driver if the car is stolen. Duh, yeah, i stole the car. The cop already ran the plate and knew it wasn’t reported stolen. Microagression! It is racist for that woman to assume a cop would ask that.
Non-story re black/white thing.
Well-to-do Doctor mother with well-raised son, contrasting with the ‘other’ demographic in VA (not noted in the story, of course).
Go to link and get details.
America, The Land Of Opportunity, where an education & hard work is the path of success.
Mom gets it and it shows in her son.
My, how nice of her to just assume a white trooper is going to presume her Mercedes is stolen simply because of the color of her skin. O.o
