Former Atlanta Falcon Roddy White is whining about being stopped by a cop recently, saying he feared for his life because the cop put his hand on his weapon during the traffic stop:

This is so stupid. The cop didn’t pull out his gun at all, according to White. The officer simply put his hand on his gun while IN THE HOLSTER as he walked up to White’s vehicle.
I’ve got news for Roddy, that’s what cops do! They don’t know what to expect when they walk up to a vehicle, especially in this day and age when cops are seemingly targeted more in this anti-cop environment. They simply want to be prepared for anything.
Yet this made Roddy White fear for his life? C’mon.
It's cops like you that makes this world a very ugly place its a good thing I already had all my information to give him or I could've died

It’d be different if the officer unholstered his weapon and was pointing it at White without cause. But that’s not happened and White is just being ridiculous.
And now the media is giving credibility to his ridiculousness by putting it out there for everyone to see.
