David Hogg: We Need To Use Our "White Privilege" To Make Sure Black Gun Victims Are Heard
Real Clear Politics ^ | March 19, 2018 | Ian Schwartz

Posted on 03/20/2018 6:15:32 AM PDT by GuavaCheesePuff

At a Twitter live stream event held Monday, Parkland High School shooting survivor David Hogg said he will use his "white privilege" to make sure that other non-white victims of gun violence can be heard.

Hogg lamented that if a similar event happened in a "lower socio-economic" place "like a black community" that the media would not give it the coverage like he and his fellow students have received "no matter how well those people spoke."

"I think one of the greatest obstacles that we've faced though with this movement is the fact that there is a lot of racial disparity in the way that this is covered," Hogg said. "If this happened in a place of a lower socio-economic status or a place where like a black community, no matter how well those people spoke, I don't think the media would cover it the same and I think it is important that we point that out as Americans we realize that."

You can easily hear the “party line” being regurgitated by this useful idiot.

The “indoctrination” is strong in this one.

Let's find a headquarters for him in Chicago.

This was a real stupid move....and I'd guess he just lost most of his followers.

That will not overcome the “don’t snitch” mentality among blacks.

Oh-oh, watch yourself, punk. One of the greatest tragedies and cover-ups is the way the media purposely ignores the high rate of black-on-black gun violence and murders in the Democrat controlled inner-city plantations.

Who would have thought that a spoiled, rich, white boy would emerge as the savior of the “black community”...

Hogg is white therefore a racist,
I don’t allow racists to lecture me on race.

You would definitely need personal protection, not gun grabbers, if you lived in a minority community.

Hogg’s daddy is a retired FBI agent according to his airhead mother. And daddy is always packing, just in case of threats to little Hogg.

Isn’t a race being able to shoot another race, or in this case the same race, more than anyone else and not being called on it by the media a privilege? Or is that now considered a “right?” The right to be disingenuous.
