You keep ignoring this reality of the perception of racial bias from police toward the African-American community because you’ve got some number you think disproves it. 

That’s where you’re missing it. 

Widespread measures to augment the training already in place for officers would be the easiest first step to bridging the divide. 

It doesn’t matter what you or I think about the number of racially motivated bad acts by cops. 
The hurt inflicted by the small number of bad actors still must be addressed. 
Common sense measures like what I’m suggesting  aren’t a bad thing. 

This one incident may involve a racist cop and it may not. We don’t know, but not addressing the damage done would be stupid.

C'mon now. The proper way to deal with this is to file charges and put the bad actor on trial. The implication the police force across the USA is a bunch of racists who need reform based on a minuscule number of these infractions isn't the way to go about it.

LOL
I’m a broken record in this thread. 

Of course the guy will see charges and trial. 

I’m talking about addressing public mistrust by augmenting training already in place with an element that educates officers on avoiding such p.r. Nightmares. 
I don’t care if it’s somewhat  redundant - I don’t care if you think it implies  something that it really doesn’t. 
THERE IS NO HARM IN IMPROVING POLICE OFFICERS’ TRAINING. None

C’mon indeed. .
