A new theme of laws in the United States appears to be geared towards teaching students how to properly submit to police by teaching them how to "interact" with the officers they encounter—and it could start with children as young as 5 years old.

In Texas, Gov. Gregg Abbott signed Senate Bill 30 into law, requiring "certain public school students" to study a curriculum that teaches them how to interact with police officers. The new law goes into effect on Sept. 1.

The curriculum will be created by the State Board of Education and the Texas Commission on Law Enforcement, and it will focus on students in grades 9-12. It will also include a civilian interaction training program for peace officers, and additional instruction on interacting with police for driver education and safety courses.

The law comes after high profile cases such as the death of Sandra Bland, a 28-year-old woman who was pulled over for allegedly changing lanes improperly, arrested, and then found dead in her jail cell three days later. There are still several questions surrounding the circumstances that led up to her death—from why she was arrested for such a minor infraction, to why the Dashcam video released by police was heavily edited.
