I suppose that’s next, but I think the socialists will be wearing a star, or a hammer and sickle, and I’ll be wearing a cross.

So wait - does that mean AmeriCorpse is giving them “White Power” bracelets?

The stupidity has come full circle.

Here’s what good parents would ask their kids:

“If we have WHITE privilege then why is Obama POTUS?”

I’ll wear my white armband if the Jewish folks wear yellow Stars of David on their chests, since Ms. Steinem seems to be the one who thought this one up.

Have someone call them “white pride” wristbands, and the educrats in charge will immediately scurry back down their holes

In November, 1969, during the “Moratorium” protest against the Vietnam War, protest leaders urged those opposed to the war to wear black arm bands. However, I went to a football game wearing a red, white and blue arm band, just like the one illustrated, to protest the protesters.

The webpage also offers a series of suggestions for high schools students to become more racially sensitive. Hmmm….. so how does ‘racial sensitivity’ or any other type of sensitivity for that matter stack up to what God says about ‘sensitivity’?

Galatians 3:28 There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for ye are all one in Christ Jesus.

Ephesians 6:8-9 Knowing that whatsoever good thing any man doeth, the same shall he receive of the Lord, whether he be bond or free. And, ye masters, do the same things unto them, forbearing threatening: knowing that your Master also is in heaven; neither is there respect of persons with him.

Colossians 3:10-11 King James Version And have put on the new man, which is renewed in knowledge after the image of him that created him: Where there is neither Greek nor Jew, circumcision nor uncircumcision, Barbarian, Scythian, bond nor free: but Christ is all, and in all.

I am so tired of hearing about this "white privilege" crap. Before emigrating to America, half my family was stomping grapes in the old country, the other half of my family came over here as indentured servants. I even have a distant relative of two who were full blood Indians whose land was stolen by other pale faces. Nobody in my family ever owned anybody else. My family scratched and clawed its way up into the middle class. Grand Dad was a steel worker. Dad was a carpenter. I joined the Marines. Anybody who says my kids have what they have due to "white privilige" better not let me hear it because I will get mad and they will not like me if I get mad.

Methinks that the race baiters and hate mongers seek to perpetuate the "white guilt" thing because 1st, 2nd and 3rd generation white folk do not have a clue about "down for the struggle" and frankly do not give a hoot. IOW, the left is losing their grip.

White Privilege = intelligence, temperate disposition, strong work ethic

All of our success is a result of these characteristics. Without these traits and you can not create or sustain a modern civilization. You get Liberia, Detroit, Caracas,San Pedro Sula, Port Moresby or you're living in the Stone Age, as many people still do.

These traits are not exclusive to Whites or distributed evenly, of course, but we are the only ones that are excoriated for having them. Nobody is shaming the Japanese for having Japanese Privilege in Japan, or the Koreans for having Korean Privilege in Korea.

This White Privilege nonsense is all propaganda designed to beat down White people psychologically so its easier to extract the wealth we create and deny the freedom we demand.

The first thing that hit me when I heard this wrist band thing was that was what the NAZI’s did to the Jews.

This is very scary to me and should be getting more visibility than it has.

I was thinking more like “White Man’s Burden.”

Take up the White Man’s burden—
And reap his old reward:
The blame of those ye better
The hate of those ye guard—
The cry of hosts ye humour

(Ah slowly) to the light:
“Why brought ye us from bondage,
“Our loved Egyptian night?”

What “white privilege” are they talking about?

Try getting a government grant to attend college when you’re a white male. DENIED.

When I went to college in the early 1980’s, I didn’t qualify for ANY financial assistance because I’m a WHITE MALE. It was a very nice black lady in the financial assistance office who told me so, very plainly. I’ll never forget it. In her words had I been a black male, female or other minority I’d have gotten a fully funded ride thru college back then.

Instead I worked four jobs for 3.5 years and had less than $10k in debt from two student loans when I graduated.

Again, WHAT WHITE PRIVILEGE? We white males, specially those of us 50 years old or older are made to be pariahs in this workforce. I pray I don’t lose my job out of fear I will never find another one that pays as well.
