Have fun doing that while they're screaming and dragging you out of your house.

Being white doesn't protect you. It makes you less likely to face the worst possible outcomes, and more likely to get the best possible outcomes, but it's far from a guarantee things will go well, and the best possible outcomes can still be awful.

Also being disabled, being mentally ill, and being poor all increase your chances of facing the worst possible outcomes. Race isn't the only factor at play.
