while being a black U.S. Senator, two-term state Senator, and constitutional law scholar, means you’re "untested."

Constitutional law scholar? Scholars write scholarly papers. Where are Bambi's?

Is this POS a trust fund child?
Has he EVER worked? Really worked? 2 jobs at a time? 3 jobs at a time? I have, so he can STFU.
Cry me a river.
MY “White Priviledge” consists of getting up, doing farm chores, getting on a school bus and going to school and getting good grades.
Then working jobs I was qualified to do, because I actually got a good high school education, showing up on time and WORKING for my EMPLOYER!! No cell phones, no texting, no I-Pods, etc.
Then buying my first house when I was 26 years old, with a modest $5000 inheritance from my mother’s death. I owned that house for 29 years, paying only 2 payments late, which I paid with the penalty. I was female and divorced.
During those years, I worked full time and attended college 2 nights a week, did all my homework, and got a 4.0 grade average in Accounting classes. Work, School, Homework, take care of house. No partying, no romantic life, no extras, just time consumed with work and school.
Inherited a second house when my Dad died. Cleaned it up and rented it out for a number of years until long-distance landlord problems coaxed me into selling it to my brother.
During that period, bought a 3rd house, which I rented, and then moved into. There for 12++ years, and then left because of the influx of the Liberals telling all of us how much we needed “street lights ,paved roads, sidewalks” in the rural area I was in. Voter registration went from 82% Republican to 42%. Time to leave.
Some jobs I had were white collar, and some were blue collar, and some were very dirty blue collar.
If all of that is “White Priviledge”, I want someone to come to my house and explain it to me “up close and personal”. Please do...let’s see you move some 125# hay bales for me.
I still do all my ranch work and dogs and horses are healthy and well-cared for.
This puke can KMA about “White Priviledge”.

while the prepnderance of those other children are born to too-young mothers (with missing or never-identified fathers) whose mother and nowadays even their grandmothers are already collecting public assistance. The circle remains unbroken as another generation of welfare babies are birthed to children already on the dole.”

One of those “mothers” was on Maury 7 times trying to find the “father” of her 5 y/o son.

Last I heard, the illigitimate rate for blacks in the city
was 85%. It might help the black cause if they would have self-discipline in that area in order to establish a more stable home life. Blacks that follow a conservative way of life have found America to be a blessing.

Eventually, people like this writer will advance to the stage where they dream of the Ultimate Solution. After all, if whites are the source of all social problems, if they are the cause of all discrimination and racism, if the problem is institutional... isn’t it reasonable just to round them up and kill them? Isn’t that the end point of this writer’s rant?

There may be other instances in human history where a group has been identified with all of society’s troubles and problems, and the complaints about their so-called power and privilege eventually led to a campaign of genocide.

Tim Wise is a psychotic.

And this "thepeoplesvoice.org" where the link takes you is a Communist website filled with moonbat 'truther' garbage and the typical tripe spewed by your typical Che & Fidel 'fan'.

In short, they're all psychotics too. Here is one example:

They (Bush & the Neocons) have committed crimes for which there are not yet laws written
Uh okay. Your padded sell is down the hall and to the right.

Does this clown actually believe that if Palin were Black, Pubbies would not be enthusiastic about her? He’s absolutely nuts.

There's no may be about it. This kind of tirade, once institutionalized, most assuredly leads to campaigns of genocide.There are many examples.

"endure ridicule"

Leftists have been using the "white privilege" trope for about twenty years now as a means of explaining the way things are the way they are. According to this totally lunatic theory the only reason people of European descent got where they are is the color of their skin. If that theory is true, he'll have to explain the success of Europeans in many parts of the country (like mine) where the minority population is minimal and sometimes nonexistent. There was a total of ONE!! black family that lived in my hometown of fifty thousand population when I grew up. Even now the black population is only one percent of the total. If the white privilege theory of white people only succeeding by oppressing minorities, how did they succeed?

I don't think anybody, even the demented fools like Wise, actually believe this. Bill Bradley alluded to wp in his disastrous bid for the White House in 2000. I'm sure the white privilege explanation went over real well in white, blue-collar audiences. (smirk)

. . . White privilege is having a rate of crime that is a fraction of that committed by Black people.

. . . White privilege is losing out on jobs, promotions, and graduate school to the less qualified because you are White.

. . . White privilege is paying taxes to support programs to advance others based on their race and ethnicity even when they are less qualified than others.
