I don't doubt you have to do 'something' to get shot by the police, but whether that 'something' is brandishing a knife or just reaching for your ID during a traffic stop can depend on race.

PhantOS:
Reaching for your ID after being pulled over by a police officer will probably get you killed no matter what race you are. The racially-motivated part of the story is the fact that you're more likely to be pulled over if you're non-white through the driving while black laws. if you're more likely to be pulled over because of your race you're also more likely to encounter a situation where the police officer has to shoot you, whether it be reaching for your ID or moving the wrong way
