Dillinger laughs. Hey Dillinger, what type of household and what kinds of
neighborhoods were you raised in? I'm going to guess it was a white, two parent home, where your parents were educated or skilled enough to have a legitimitate middle class income, am I on the right track?

If I am, then of course you and 90% "privileged" white people think because you were afforded those opportunities well then ALL white people were also afforded such opportunities.

I grew up around all kinds of poverty. My first home was a trailer, we then moved to a 1600 square foot home with an unfinished basement where me and my 3 brothers shared a room for many years. To my parents credit, their hard work, dedication and persistence led us to being "comfortable". But many of the white kids I grew up around stayed in trailers, run down small homes and they never stood a chance, never. You really think the world see's rich white kids the same as poor white people? Most of those kids are doing the same things their parents did... Living in trailer parks, apartments with no hope and no opportunities.

I know many white people from generational poverty that have never had a shot at life. They have been viewed as dirty, despicable and worthless by community leaders, teachers etc... Sound familiar?

Meanwhile, oppressed Missouri hunger strike boy's dad makes 8 million dollars a year as a railroad executive. That's more money than the folks I grew up around made combined. That idiot only wishes he were a victim just like he's read in all those history books.

These issues are not exclusive to blacks or whites. They are however exclusive to people who are poor, unskilled, unwed etc...
