These people are genuinely insane.
I’m not giving up anything: not my freedom, not my liberty, not my guns and I’m keeping any privileges you think you can take from me.
White people should do exactly whatever all other people are supposed to do — try to live out their existence in this world as decent human beings. It is quite simple, really.
Just when I thought still-breathing members of the species had completely explored the limitations of being stupid and still have a heartbeat, here you go pushing the boundaries of known stupidity another parsec.
If there was a Nobel Prize for stupid, that article would have made you a shoo-in.
Its stupid articles like this which 1) make racial strife worse and 2) are sign that western civilization and culture will go into the next dark ages if fools like the author have their way.
“When black people are protesting in Ferguson and across America, theyre not protesting against white people.”
Seriously, this author is speculating on rational behavior by *rioters*? Are the rioters “protesting” against the shopkeepers whose stores they looted and burned? Are the rioters “protesting” people they attack?
Black people may not be “protesting” white people, but they are certainly “preferentially victimizing” white people.
First, she is a privileged white person so her opinion doesn’t matter.
Second, if privilege is such a bad thing, why do we need to extend more of it to minorities? Wouldn’t that be racist?
You are right about the segment of the Black Americans that, do I believe you said, are 40 percent of the crime.
You are excusing the problem. Pay attention the the linked article, Lady. It has some pretty good facts.
"Although there is a large disparity between the crime rates of whites and those of African-Americans, any perception that this is based solely on racism quickly evaporates when family structure is considered in the data. When researchers control for marriage, the rates of crime for whites and blacks in each family group are very similar."
It's old data but have things changed much? As I find newer data I prepare them for posting also.
Here are some federal stats.
Uniform Crime Reporting Program Federal Bureau of Investigation November 2003
A race-specific arrest rate refers to the number of arrests per 100,000 inhabitants belonging to a defined race.
The statisticians have updated the race-specific data used in this publication, and therefore, figures may differ slightly from the national averages published in earlier editions of Crime in the United States . The rates represent that portion of the population covered by all agencies that contributed race data for the given offenses. The UCR Program requires that reporting agencies supply the age of arrestees; however, the Program stipulates that the submission of race data is voluntary. Therefore, the population coverage for race statistics is lower than that for age statistics.
AGE-SPECIFIC ARREST RATES AND RACE-SPECIFIC ARREST RATES FOR SELECTED OFFENSES, 1993-2001
A note about these data from "Although there is a large disparity between the crime rates of whites and those of African-Americans, any perception that this is based solely on racism quickly evaporates when family structure is considered in the data. When researchers control for marriage, the rates of crime for whites and blacks in each family group are very similar." Crime Index Age and Race, PAGES 59 and 65

If the author can name one neighborhood that has transitioned from mostly-white to mostly black and seen an overall improvement in living conditions I’d like her to tell me.
It’s not “white privilege”, it’s that whites, by and large, hold themselves and their children to a higher standard. If blacks would try “acting white” and strive for better educations, marriage before child-bearing, and getting to sleep at night instead of roaming the streets they’d be a whole lot better off.
And I’ve said it before that blacks that are angry that they’re viewed in a less-than-positive light need only to teach the next generation that it’s 100% unacceptable to commit crimes and be violent. If blacks suddenly became the most law-abiding group in America, everyone else would quickly recognize it and have a far better overall view toward them. But being their own worst enemy isn’t helping anyone, regardless of any perceived privilege of any other group.
DON'T BE A RACIST!
This white person is buying ammo. Because liberal hunting season is coming up.
Carry. Always carry.
Looks like she has a bad case of “Black Man Syndrone”.
She has all the symptoms...
“White privilege” is what you get when you adhere to the rules of western civilization and Christianity.
*That* is what is being attacked when people rail against “white privilege”. It is all the advantages that accrue from being law abiding, hard working, being frugal, respecting others, and honoring the 10 commandments.
Act criminally, actively discourage education, thrift, and work, encourage sin... you get the criminal black urban ghetto.
Sally, I got my white privilege by studying 18 hours a day six days a week. Maybe if the looters and rioters worked that hard at something positive they would not need to riot and loot to make ends meet. Just a thought Sally.
White Privilege occurs when a white person does not allow a black person to kill them.
To get back to work.
This woman is just plain crazy. Let’s move on to something important, like Michele Obama’s next hair-doo.
What white people need to know: white guilt is the cross you must bear for the misfortunes of “people of color”.
What Obama needed, worked for, and got, by separating and isolating the blacks through issuing the “stay the course” Ferguson order. Was a successful demonstration of what would happen if congress ever moved on “Impeachment”.
