Actually, you can get a fracking grip iSm. What privilege have I had from being white? Is that the privilege that has led to me being thirty and still finishing college because my family was too poor to buy one for me when I was eighteen? Is this the privilege that had me working full time in high school to help my family keep the electricity on? Is it the privilege that brought me hand-me-down clothes, broken Salvation Army toys at Christmas, and food-stamp-purchased, minimal groceries growing up because we couldn't afford better? Tell me, iSm, what White Privilege are you talking about? Because I don't see it. All I see is a lot of middle, and upper-middle, class white people who can't get over their own senseless, liberal white guilt, making excuses for a bigoted old douchebag who was classless enough to take a swipe at the largest group of people in America, from a world wide stage. As I said earlier, I wasn't offended by his remarks, just saw how insulting and stupid they were. But I am annoyed by the blatant tsunami of hypocrisy flowing forth because of it.
