Dark joke. Fortunately not dark enough for the dad to beat it to death.

If you are talking about the parent comment the joke is that because the dad is a cop and they usually beat on black people, "it wasn't dark enough to beat it to death" is the point. I know it's not well explained but hopefully you got the gist of it.

If you are talking about OP's post then the joke is that a while ago there was a school shooting where the cops refused to enter a school to do their job when they clearly took their own kids out first there's more to this but the relevant part to the joke is that the kids dad is a cop so he refuses to go inside the school.

Oh shit, its all making sense now, i guess XD
They are only white kids on the picture, thats the starting point ? ^^

The starting point is a reference to school shootings where the police were too afraid to go into the school to stop the shooter.

This joke is so dark, a cop just pulled it over on suspicion of canvasing burglary sites.
