Georgetown Columnist: Middle Class People Deserve to be Mugged because "We're Privileged"

Oliver Friedfeld and his roommate were mugged last weekend. They were forced to the ground and their valuables were taken from them. In response, Friedfeld has blamed himself because he is a member of the middle class.

Writing in Georgetown University's “The Hoya,” Friedfeld penned an article detailing the robbery called “I was Mugged, And I Understand Why.” In it, he attributed his mugging to being a member of the middle class, instead of to the people who mugged him.

...And the fact that he comes “from a solidly middle-class family” means that Friedfeld should be a target of muggings, according to him. He then wonders aloud, “Who am I to stand from my perch of privilege... to condemn these young men as 'thugs?'”

In fact, the middle class is to blame for crimes of this nature, he writes: “If we ever want opportunistic crime to end, we should look at ourselves first... When we play along with a system that fuels this kind of desperation, we can’t be surprised when we’re touched by it. ”

Friedfeld concludes that members of the middle class simply need to get over their fear of being mugged because we have it good. “We should get comfortable with sporadic muggings and break-ins. I can hardly blame them. The cards are all in our hands, and we’re not playing them. “

Friedfeld, Sandra the Nymph Fluke, etc. Georgetown Un. sure has a great group of students.

What next? Giving Charles Manson a scholarship as a wedding present?

Wouldn’t put it beyond GT. They’ve gone over to the leftist “darkside” since the late 60’s and never came back.

Lots of reds and jihadists in their faculty.

But if they mugged him because he is GAY....

Had he been shot for his $20, as he might well have been, I wonder if his ghost would have thought that he deserved it?

In the '70s I was a law student living on Capitol Hill near Lincoln Park. Two blocks over some other law students were having a party one Saturday night. I don't recall, but the odds were they were from Georgetown Law School, which was also on Capitol Hill. The party was invaded by a few young thugs from the surrounding neighborhood, and after robbing their victims, the robbers made everyone strip naked and stand in line. Then, they shot three young men to death and left. That was one of three triple murders that occurred in the few surrounding blocks that year.

Pure evil is not a literary fiction; it's not even that exotic. It exists, and the sooner you accept that, the sooner your real education begins.

This is what we are dealing with. Self hating whiteys.

Liberalism IS a mental disorder.

[CodeToad]

What the idiot is really saying is that blacks have no ability to feed themselves so they have to take from whites.

Sounds racist to me.

[CorporateStepsister]

I sometimes think the upper middle class is the real problem in this country. They’re usually the most liberal and have a real problem with reality.

I say he deserves to be beheaded by Muslims due to his Christian Privilege.

He should take off all his clothes before his father,leave home wrapped in a robe, like Francis did, and spend the rest of his life in austerity.

[RobbyS]

Such is the quality of an IVY education these days.
