Jesse Jackson attacks Duck Dynasty star for “white privilege”
Legal Insurrection ^ | December 26, 2013 | Laurel Conrad

Posted on 12/26/2013 5:37:58 PM PST by 2ndDivisionVet

Reverend Jesse Jackson Sr. is speaking out against Phil Robertson, star of A&E’s reality show “Ducky Dynasty,” claiming that Robertson’s comments to GQ reflect “white privilege.”

Jackson even compared Robertson to the bus driver who ordered Rosa Parks to move to the back of the bus in a statement obtained by ABC News:

“These statements uttered by Robertson are more offensive than the bus driver in Montgomery, Alabama, more than 59 years ago”

Jackson went on to state that,

“At least the bus driver, who ordered Rosa Parks to surrender her seat to a white person, was following state law. Robertson’s statements were uttered freely and openly without cover of the law, within a context of what he seemed to believe was ‘white privilege.’”

According to ABC, Jackson is urging A&E to uphold Robertson’s suspension and requests an urgent meeting with A&E and Cracker Barrel executives.

Jackson, 0bama, Rangel, Sharpton, and all the rest; they need the dissension, the unrest, and the class/race hatred that are fomented by their rants and their ‘cause-of-the-day’.

True, but do they want a real shooting war? I am not sure, but if they do, they severely underestimate their enemy. My guess is, they will keep picking us off, one or two at a time. The knock out game might become the kill out game. Whitey will never respond in kind. The government will never allow it.

“Robertson’s statements were uttered freely and openly without cover of the law, within a context of what he seemed to believe was ‘white privilege.’””

It’s white privilege that allows one to say what the Bible says? Are Bibles being kept from black people so they won’t know what the Bible says - only white people can buy a Bible or read one in a library?

“without cover of the law” - what does that mean?
“what he seemed to believe was ‘white privilege’ - what does that mean?

People send Jackson money for being this dumb. Jackson should send me money for being smarter than he - it’s only fair. I want redistribution of his wealth so I can be as rich as he is. He doesn’t want me, a white person, to be rich as in equal. He is using “black privilege” to keep me poorer than he is. Until he and I are equal, I will be depressed. He is holding me back from a wonderful life I know I would have if he gave me half his money. s/s/s

Jesse the Jackass has spent a lifetime as a grifter/hustler/con-artist.

He’s never done an honest days work in his life. He was an opportunist who hitched his wagon to MLK’s and then usurped MLK’s legacy. (MLK’s predilections are another conversation)

The odd thing about MLK Jr was Martin Luther, a noted anti-semite.

So Jackson the Philanderer equates the civil rights of blacks with the radical homosexual agenda? And who with a voice will call him on suppressing the importance of racial equality to appease the left’s love affair with homosexuality?

Two questions for Mr. Jackson. (I refuse to call him reverend)

How many children has Mr. Robertson fathered out of wedlock?

How many of Mr. Robertson’s children are in prison?

Yup, whites have the privilege of working hard to support a bunch of stupid parasites who hate us.

"White privilege" happens to people who go to school, become literate, work hard and save money, get married to a member of the opposite sex who they remain married to until death do they part and birth and raise children to adulthood instead of aborting them.

You don't have to be white to attain "white privilege," but Jesse Jackson and his people consider living like that to be silly.

If people just laughed off such clowns as this, we wouldn’t have so many.
