“Privilege” Defined

This is powerful! I think it sums up the feeling of a lot of ordinary working stiffs, and I couldn't have said it better myself!

This post is a comment that a person posted on YouTube about the shooting of Deon Kay. Just ordinary people most often have a better sense of interpreting cultural trends than do the so called professional or the experts, let alone the politicians. Common sense is just that and nobody has a monopoly on it. Here's the entire post about "privilege". 

1. Privilege is wearing $200 sneakers when you’ve never had a job.

2. Privilege is wearing $300 Beats headphones while living on public assistance.

3. Privilege is having a Smartphone with a Data plan, which you receive no bill for.
  
4. Privilege is living in public subsidized housing where you don’t have a utility or phone bill and where rising property taxes, rents and energy costs have absolutely no effect on the amount of food you can put on your table, which is largely covered by Government Food Stamps.

5. Privilege is having free health insurance for you and your family that's paid for by working taxpayers who often can't afford proper health coverage for their own families.

6. Privilege is having multiple national organizations promoting and protecting just your race alone -- that are subsidized by federal tax dollars.

7. Privilege is having access to a national college fund that supports only one race.

8. Privilege is having a television network that supports only one race.

9. Privilege is having most of the media news networks refuse to cover incidents wherein one race (one-eighth of the population) commits 50% of the crimes.

10. Privilege is the ability to go march against, and protest against anything that triggers you, without worrying about calling off from work and the consequences that accompany such.
 
11. Privilege is having as many children as you want, regardless of your employment status, and be able to send them off to daycare or pre-school you don’t pay for.

12. Privilege is being able to vote in many states without showing a driver's license, voter ID card or other credentials -- just because your race claims they should be exempt from such requirements.

13. Privilege is being able to riot, loot, commit arson and tear down historic monuments without consequences -- just because you don't like folks such as Columbus, U.S. Grant or even Lincoln.
 
14. Privilege is being able to get into almost any college of your choosing based on your race, not your grades or merit.

15.  Privilege is having most of your life paid for by the working men and women who DO HAVE TO DEAL WITH RISING TAXES AND COSTS! You know, those you now call “PRIVILEGED".
