Longstanding trust issues that blacks have with the police, for historical as well as contemporary reasons, as well as greater solidarity among blacks than among whites or America at large, means that blacks protest when this happens.  When a cop kills a white person, it isn't as often seen by other whites as feeding into a broader indictment of relations between cops and the community at large.
