This man was doing something illegal and has the audacity to smile in his mugshot. He is a prime example of white privilege. He can fire shots at the police and not be killed right there and then. Unarmed black men get killed for just being and this man can shoot at police, not receive return fire, and smile in his mugshot probably thinking he will be able to afford a lawyer who can fight for him to the end and won't have to stay in jail/go to prison.



He said that he's lucky to be alive. I'm like no you're white and that's why you're alive. LOL.
1. Sorry you don't like his mugshot. There are websites that show odd\weird mugshots that you can go google if those might make you feel better.

2. It's a small town, they knew the guy. If he'd been walking around Chicago shooting at cops earnestly he likely would have died in a hail of bullets.

3. I love how you probably know what he's thinking and well....white privilege! I call complete and utter BS on your statement that somehow you can shoot at cops in this country and not go to jail if you're white.

Did you miss the story about the Houston police officers who assassinated a white couple in their own home because of a made up story?


Guess not, it doesn't fit the agenda.
There is no such thing as you and you have no proof you exist...

see anyone can post nonsense and act like it means something.


There are a slew of privileges one has by being white, attractive and wealthy....

It is widely accepted by society and therefore the onus is on YOU to disprove it rather than anyone else proving it.

The poster was talking about getting shot dead by cops, that is the real issue.


Nobody is claiming zero white people get shot they are saying cops are much faster, much more likely to shoot and kill a black man than a white man (all other things being equal)


and frankly just cop on to yourself and look it up it is not worth debating what is a widely understood fact. Even the cops admit it and you can look that up too.


Frankly this "denial" of reality we see here daily is just insane. We literally have adult american citizens with reasonable IQs denying the reality of their existence because it makes them uncomfortable and conflicts with their political views.

I was watching a clip of The Simpsons where Mr. Burns went back to Yale to give them an endowment but he was horrified to see how the SJWs had taken over the University and made it intolerably politically correct. The joke was that Mr. Burns came across as the voice of reason. Even as deranged and heartless as he is, he was still more sane than the SJWs.

How did it go from white to white wealthy and attractive?

There are a slew of privileges one has by being white, attractive and It is widely accepted by society and therefore the onus is on YOU to disprove it rather than anyone else proving it. [/quote]lol No it's not widely accepted. No the onus isn't on me The onus is on you is to start acting like an adult and use information and knowledge to prove your point.

or you could just say things like the earth is flat and continued getting laughed at.

I stopped reading after I read that foolishness. Seriously, y'all have to stop with your race-baiting and divisive tactics. Its a huge reason why President Trump won in 2016. I see you're itching for a repeat in 2020.
