"We went from being a privileged group to all of a sudden becoming whites, the new victims,'' says Charles Gallagher, a sociologist at La Salle University in Pennsylvania who researches white racial attitudes and was baffled to find that whites see themselves as a minority.

Gallagher referring to Whites as "privileged", used in this manner so often on the left, is the equivalent of calling a family privileged for living in a home built by the father's own hands.

“The new victims” my shiny white hiney!

They just figured this out?

I seem to have lost my taxes.

DOES ANYONE KNOW WHERE MY TAXES WENT???

It was always the intentions of the left to subjugate everybody. It just took 40 years to finally get whitey.

Rule of thumb: distrust anything coming from CNN. There’s always an agenda, and it’s never a conservative one. The article cites Morris Dees’ hate group a couple of times as the authority on which other groups are “hate groups.”

A growing number of white Americans are acting like a racially oppressed majority. They are adopting the language and protest tactics of an embattled minority group, scholars and commentators say. They point to these signs of racial anxiety: • A recent Public Religion Research Institute poll found 44% of Americans surveyed identify discrimination against whites as being just as big as bigotry aimed at blacks and other minorities. The poll found 61% of those identifying with the Tea Party held that view, as did 56% of Republicans and 57% of white evangelicals.

And the point would be...

this thread is oppressive....oppressive I tell ya!

[E. Pluribus Unum]

We no longer practice equal protection under the law.

The law now favors certain classes over others.

This is the stuff violent revolutions are made of.

The only stable state is the one in which all men are equal before the law. --Aristotle

I don’t think whites are oppressed, but it’s not “OK” to be white. If you are caucasian, there is, according to society, NOTHING to be proud of in your heritage. Forget all of the liberty and technology and progress made in the past by people with pinkish skin. You must be ashamed and you must give preferential treatment to those with darker hues.

It’s kind of stupid. I like the whole colorblind idea far better than all this Racial Pride, like Sotomayor and her “wise Latina,” as if her heritage had anything to do with her wisdom. Let’s forget about race. The 2010 census had about 50 different combinations of races, and it’s getting ridiculously out of hand.

Race? HUMAN. Period.

[neutrino]

Yes, Whites are victims of racial oppression. We will soon be a minority - indeed, we are a minority in various areas.

Note well that Whites are victims of hate crimes, but the perps are not charged under the hate crime provisions. Rather, they are subject to lesser charges.

Is “gringo” a racial slur?

[Young Werther]

Especially the White skinned (albinos) in Africa!

[Sacajaweau]

Well, they can say ...white etc etc...

But if I say the n word....I'm out of a job...

[Leftism is Mentally Deranged]

It doesn’t rise anywhere near the level of past wrongs committed in this country against Blacks, but there is deliberate discrimination in an attempt to blame innocent living Whites for the crimes of dead Whites.

[the invisib1e hand]

Disenfranchised, fer sure. But we’ll fix that. We always do.

[PaleoBob]

In the 2012 presidential election whites need to do what blacks did in 2008 and stick with their own race in massive (90+ percent) numbers. That’s all. Nothing to this whole “civil rights” thing. It’s easy. Next time, vote white.

[Rick_Michael]

Very true...especially if you live in cities like SF, LA, etc. I know this, because unfortunately I’m still in one. The hate seeps.

[Old Sarge]

Are whites racially oppressed?

Yes.

Next question...
