#1 She mis-spelled "White Guilt". She obviously means 'perch of white guilt'.

#4 And here, ladies and gents, you see exactly the kind of mentality that keeps yapping about "Religion of Peace".

#6 Some white readers will demand to know what kind of daughter says such things about her father.

No, no e-mails from me. I already know the answer to such a question.

#7 I'm sure the writer wasn't referring to this White Male Privilege by which she wouldn't be enjoying the world she lives in to trash.

#8 I'm sick of this crap.

I was raised by a conservative father & mother who actually treated the world in a race neutral manner. I learned the lessons well to judge people by their character not their color. Yet, today, that makes me a racist according to fools like this and the whole PC mob.

Crap, crap and more crap.

#9 "Tell the boys," he said to me over and over. "Tell the boys this comes from me: If the police stop you, don't ever run. Take your hands out of your pockets. Immediately. Put your hands over your head. Immediately. Stand perfectly still, and keep your opinions to yourself."

Hmmm. KEEP YOUR OPINONS TO YOURSELF.
Or you're dead.
That seems to be a major problem with Blacks.

SHUT YOUR MOUTH.

#10 I thought it was a cogent, well written article.

SAID NOBODY EVER!

#11 Actually it's a perch of mainstream black-cultural inferiority. Which only continues and worsens because of subsidy (mainly from working white folks).

#14 Nice perspective, P2K (#7). It's all about perspective! The perch has a very narrow perspective, and likes it that way.

#15 My worries never rival those of most African-American mothers.

A few days ago someone made a point that in the days between Travon Martin's death and Zimmerman's acquittal,13,500 Blacks had been murdered. 12,500 of them had been killed by other Blacks and 1,000 had been killed by other races. In fact, White murderers account for only 7% of the murders of Blacks.

So yes - Black fathers and mothers should be worried when their son goes out for some Skittles. They should be worried their son will be a victim of gang violence. Being killed by a White is far down the list. Getting killed by the cops is even further down the list. Something like 90 Blacks are shot by the police each year (in the entire US). In fact cops are twice as likely to be shot by Black as to shoot a sweet little boy like Trayvon.

White mothers have less to worry about because White boys are much less likely to commit murder.

#16 "White Privilege" is the new "code word" for reparations, affirmitine action, revenge, class envy and extortion. I am sure our country will take it, hook, line and sinker.

#17 I am reminded, for some reason, of the musical West Side Story. I loved it when I was young, but when I saw it a few months ago, I cried all the way through. Then I enjoyed the music and the dancing, and of course the romantic play on Romeo and Juliet. This time I saw the horror of gang violence (ethnic white vs. hispanic, in the story), and the refusal of the community to allow anyone to escape. Our writer has perhaps not seen the musical, or the various other Broadway musicals based on Romeo and Juliet, amd therefore cannot conceive that any but African-Americans might endure violence and assumptions from society at large.

One might say, those who do not know history are unaware of repeating it.

#18 From a wide front porch under slowing turning fans, afternoon nap finished, iced tea at the ready, watching the many species of lovely Georgia song birds attending the feeder..... 'white privileged' and proud.

#19 These are the same Lefties(tm) who cried "Black Majority rule for South Africa" who somehow have a serious internal and intellectual problems with white majority rule in America. Thus the use of the term 'privilege' to cover their need to dictate and ~~rule~~ lord regardless of the lack of basic principles.

#20 I read once that white guys are taught that when pulled over you try to get your wallet out and put it on the dashboard and keep your hands visible and make no quick movies or talk crap because anytging you do increasea your chance of getting that ticket.

Blacks tend to be offended because they were pulled over for driving while black and give attitude.

These two factors explain why preportionally both are stopped the same amount but more blacks take the step from oulled over to arrested.
