Joe Scarborough: woke, white-privilege-virtue-signaling warrior!
On today's Morning Joe, Scarborough, commenting on the death of Tyre Nichols, claimed:
"No police officer would have done this to me when I was 29-years-old, a middle class white guy. Nobody--they wouldn't have dared. Because they knew that if they did, if they beat the hell out of a 29-year-old, middle class white guy, that hell would rain down from above."
How admirable of Joe to admit to his white privilege!
But there's one little problem with Scarborough's virtue signaling. Five Memphis police officers beat a 29-year-old black man, and . . . hell promptly rained down on them!

What denial.
They would have zero problem bezting him like a rented mule and then shooting him.
That dude has morphed into a cartoon character.
Don’t count on it.
Good job.
Sharpton made some good points at the funeral... he pointed out ‘the movement’ opened the door for black cops, fireman and other workers, AND civil rights workers didn’t die and sacrifice so black police could act like the people the movement was fighting.
Those words rained down - and they’ll have effect.
About 80% of Sharpton’s speech was right on... impressive. Much better than I was expecting.
