What follows is for the benefit of one William James O'Reilly Jr. -- "Bill" to his fans.
Last summer, Mr. O'Reilly, a pundit for Fox "News," spent time talking about white privilege and his contention that no such thing exists. He debated this with colleague Megyn Kelly, and sparred about it with Jon Stewart of "The Daily Show." Part of Mr. O'Reilly's reasoning is that because Asian-Americans (according to him) make more money and are better educated than whites, what we really should be talking about is "Asian privilege."

What black spokes fools seem to be admitting is that blacks want privil’edge’ without having to qualify for it or compete for it or earn it, just be given it. That hasn’t worked out too well with affirmative action. I mean, look at the piece of floating excrement in the White Hut! He’s a post turtle in full don’tchaknow.
Dear Leonard - Please tell all the blacks in prison for killing, maiming, stealing, raping, etc. that the only reason they are in the slammer is because of white privilege, not their heinous crimes. Meanwhile, I’ll clean my shotgun.
Leonard Pitts Jr. (”Lenny” to his friends) misses one critical fact. A fact which makes all the difference in the world as to how these two events played out.
Kalamazoo is not Cleveland.
He and all others that spout this crap can shove white privilege.
Funny how race doesn’t exist except when it does. Whites need to stand up to this BS
It's like "The Lord of the Flies" madness. Some white liberals are even making it their whole lives, it's taken over their brains like an alien possession.
And it's all made up! Not only is there is no white privilege, but white people are the only people in our society against whom you can discriminate with the full blessing of the law.
Blacks get all kinds of preferential privileges on account of their skin color.
Funny how the black racist Leonard Pitts doesn’t mention them.
But black privilege is kosher while alleged white privilege is treif.
White privilege seems to be traits found in white culture that have a positive response. A cop is more likely to be killed or assaulted by non-whites so cops are more apprehensive.
How many cops are nervous around 25 year old Asian men in business suits?
How many times have white criminals gotten away because they were nice to the officer? Mike Brown died because he didn’t have the sense to not assault an officer. Had he been walking on the sidewalk, Wilson wouldn’t even have seen him!
White people worked for that “privilege” and the only thing keeping blacks from it is blacks.
It has been my privilege to have my WW2 Hero Grandfather murdered in a convenience store robbery by an 18 year old black kid.
It has been my privilege to have my Father’s best friend shot 3 times at work by his black employee.
It has been my privilege to have been robbed at gunpoint by three black guys on the street in Atlanta.
It has been my privilege to have my car/house broken into only to have four black teens caught with my property.
It will be my privilege to find my own justice if one single more thing happens to my loved ones.
Police deal with suicide-by-cop nuts all the time. The boy clearly was not in that situation but the adult in Pitt's example may have been, that is probably why they spent 40 minutes "negotiating". The action on the boy in the park sounds excessively short. Was there any attempt to ask the boy to drop the "gun"? How did he respond?
The Travis County DA (who's continued employment has become the basis for an indictment against Gov. Rick Perry) "negotiated" with police for 60 minutes at a roadside stop regarding DWI (they did not even begin to administer the test for 30 minutes and gave her 30 minutes of chances to comply with the testing officer's requests).
I don't hear libs up in arms over law enforcement privilege or the persecution of Rick Perry.
“Privilege”?
Really?
It’s been a REAL ‘privilege’ killing myself to work and take all the crap I routinely have done over all these decades in this place JUST to earn enough to get by.... so my income can be looted to provide a leisurely existence for people who hate me, who will NEVER take responsibility for themselves and who will NEVER assimilate!
I’m SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO ‘privileged’!
White privilege is “Kooties” for snot nosed liberals who never quite entered puberty.
Leonard Pitts is an Abby of the first order and I for one will be very happy when he Pitts-off.
Whites make their own “privilege”, if that word must be used. White males willingly have taken risks to their lives, and not infrequently have lost them, to further our pool of knowledge and contribute to a better future for all. What leftist blacks choose to ignore is that any “privilege” whites seem to have had, wasn’t dropped into their laps from on high, it was paid for by whites, most often white males, in sweat, blood, and tears. There weren’t any “entitlement” programs for the vast majority of whites, in either the approach to, or the zenith of, western civilisation.
Je$$e Jack$on, in an unguarded moment, admitted as much himself, when he made his remark about being relieved to see a white person behind him when he’s being followed on the street.
Of course he’s also gleefully admitted to smiling in the faces of white patrons while spitting in their food behind the door, when he worked in a restaurant in his youth.
Obviously, there are exceptions and those who violate that trust are punished.
Others have developed their own reputations and the only solution is to hold themselves to the same standards if they expect to be treated the same.
One million dollars tax-free, a first-class ticket to any other country that’ll accept you and you turn-in your passport and renounce your U.S. citizenship the minute you hit the ground. Deal?
Good point. Leftists also choose to ignore the factor of “odds”, as in, odds in gambling. If they were honest enough to admit the statistical evidence, they wouldn’t use the excuse of “whites do it too” on the subject of crime, because the statistics show that of the app 12% of blacks in America, the odds are that a much higher number of them will be criminal as opposed to the proportion of whites.
I’m a 57 yo cracka and I ain’t never experienced honky privelege.
So what you're saying is, "white privilege" is directly proportionate with one's ability to lace up work boots and read a work schedule? WHO KNEW!?!?! /sarc
