Katie Hopkins has received both backlash and support for a tweet she posted Thursday morning about the current social unrest in Charlotte, NC.
The tweet said:
"Black man shot by another black man during a protest of shooting of a black man by a black cop. My white privilege means I don't understand"

Your whiteness means you’re irredeemable according to BLM and the leaders of the Democrat Party.
The sales figures for sport utility rifles over the last 15 years says otherwise, at least for many.
Imagine that. A woman who doesn’t understand something. /s

He is a very ugly woman . . .
Uh, She is a woman...sorry if she does not age nice enough for you...
She is trying to make a point with her comments...
She took quite a bit of flack about her comments about Migrants in England in 2015...oh and she defended Trump in Dec. 2015 regarding his comments about muslims...as per Wikipedia
So maybe she is not so ugly after all.
Migrants
On 17 April 2015, Hopkins wrote a column in The Sun comparing migrants to “cockroaches” and “feral humans” and said they were “spreading like the norovirus”.[68][69] Her remarks were condemned by the United Nations High Commission for Human Rights. In a statement released on 24 April 2015, High Commissioner Zeid Ra’ad Al Hussein stated that Hopkins’ used “language very similar to that employed by Rwanda’s Kangura newspaper and Radio Mille Collines during the run up to the 1994 genocide”, and noted that both media organizations were subsequently convicted by an international tribunal of public incitement to commit genocide.[70]
Hopkins’ column also drew criticism on Twitter, including from Russell Brand, to whom Hopkins responded by accusing Brand’s “champagne socialist humanity” of neglecting taxpayers.[69] Simon Usborne, writing in The Independent, compared her use of the word “cockroach” to previous uses by the Nazis and just before the Rwandan Genocide by its perpetrators.[71] He suspected that if any other contributor had written the piece it would not have been published and questioned her continued employment by the newspaper.[71] Zoe Williams commented in The Guardian: “It is no joke when people start talking like this. We are not ‘giving her what she wants’ when we make manifest our disgust. It is not a free speech issue. I’m not saying gag her: I’m saying fight her”.[72]
A Change.org petition was initiated with the aim of getting The Sun to sack Hopkins. By 26 April, it had attracted over 310,000 signatures.[73] In early September, The Sun retweeted an earlier comment from Hopkins expressing her disinterest in migrants. The tweet was pulled after the Prime Minister David Cameron publicly announced Britain would do more to help those seeking asylum in the UK.[74]
A change.org petition for Hopkins to be replaced with 50,000 Syrian refugees gained more than 20,000 signatures in less than 48 hours in September 2015.[75][76][77][78]
Peter Herbert, chair of the Society of Black Lawyers, reported Hopkins and The Sun to Sir Bernard Hogan-Howe, the Metropolitan Police Commissioner. Hopkins was questioned and not charged, and subsequently criticised the police for purportedly criminalising opinion, and stated that she would set up a Society of White Lawyers.[79]
Hopkins wrote in the Daily Mail during December 2015 in DEFENSE OF REMARKS MADE BY AMERICAN PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE DONALD TRUMP THAT ALL MUSLIMS SHOULD BE BANNED FROOOOM ENTERING THE UNITED STATES. Trump thanked Hopkins for her support, calling her a “respected journalist”, although the Metropolitan Police and the Mayor of London, Boris Johnson among others, rejected his comments about ‘no go’ areas of London, unlike Hopkins who asserted that Britain is in part “radicalised” and “it does nobody any favours to deny the obvious”.[80][81]

Looks like a man in drag standing in front of an LGBT sign.
She’s an attractive older woman...why all of these vile comments about her looks?
Hopefully the white man is going to awaken, we see it in the EU the males have been turned into snowflakes who run the other way same here
