If i recieve unearned privilege for being white in the U.S.A. WHY should I want equality for all.A l?

Answer 1

Seems to me that the only people without privileges are white heterosexual males. Especially if they are employed and are natural citizens.

Answer 2

The equality your speaking of is supposed to be equal for all humans. No color or anything else. If you were blind, you wouldn't know what color you were, so who cares. I'm sick to death about using color as an excuse. We are human beings, no matter color, race, or what ever else is brought up. Maybe be if every one would thnk this way, the world might be different.

The jewish people got killed, not because of their color, but because of their religion, and they are white. And if your upset about things, live with it, because the English are the ones who brought the blacks to this country. Why, you may ask, because they were too damn lazy to do their own work! And then the goverment gets involved, which are men, and maybe if a woman was presdent, we wouldn't have all this fighting. Men always have to fight about something. Women want a normal world, where are children can grow up in peace, and not have to worry about all this stuff.

So get yourself a dog, since this is the answer area for dogs, and live peaceably. And if you have unearned privileges, thank heavens or God that you do. Have you ever heard of "It's better to give then receive". Not every one gets things, there are people worse off then we are, and if you say there are others who receive these privileges, then why is this world in such bad shape, with homeless people and starving children, in the good o'le USofA. Think about that for awhile, and help someone worse off then you. And don't go saying the blacks,or others are the reason for this, because there are bad people in all races, and colors. So you can't blame all the races for one bad apple, as the saying goes. Try to have a nice night.

Answer 3

Okay, I have not railed one time since I started answering questions on this damn site but I'm sick of this. This is a pet's question site so why are you asking this tired old question on this site? At the risk of being politically incorrect here I go. There are more blacks on welfare than whites, I sure as hell can't drive a Lexus and get food stamps and have all five of my illegitimate kids from five different daddy's on Medicaid while I lay around on my *** complaining about crap that didn't even happen to me over a hundred years ago. Also if there was an American Caucasian College Fund dear Lord what a damn stink that would raise, and oh yeah how about this any body out there want to form the NAAWP(National Association for the Advancement of White People) that would go over like a lead balloon wouldn't it. Let me tell you about my privilege's, I worked two jobs to get through nursing school, I raised my son by myself because his drunk daddy ran off (thank God) and I sent him through college myself because I made too much money for him to qualify for a grant. I also have the privilege of , through taxes(because I work), paying medicaid costs for hospital bills for people who don't work but manage to get pregnant every year or so. Please shut up about equality and white privilege's we ain't the ones who've got them!!!!

Answer 4

Everyone recieves unearned privileges in some way. It is played up by media that minorities don't get as much as everyone else so the government thinks they have to compensate for that. They are watching their backs.

Answer 5

African-Americans recieve unearned priviledges too. Like scholarships and grants for college. They are not actually the people that were descriminated against, it was their relatives, so in a way this free gov't money is unearned as well.

Answer 6

I'm not sure even you understand the depth of the question you just asked ? White dogs don't consider them self more privileged than say red,yellow brown,tan or black dogs ,do they? All dogs are already equal,this is the dog section ,isn't it ?( hard to keep my tongue in cheek attitude in check)

Answer 7

I don't think its about being white if you got privilege's, you shouldn't be thinking like this.... everybody earns something based on what they do.... it isn't a white of black thing.. North America is a multicultural nation now, the days of white and black are gone... please try not to be small minded on this and see the big picture.

Answer 8

Privilege??? What the heck are you talking about? It is the MINORITIES who get unearned privileges - free food, free shelter, free medical care, and it's us white folks who are paying for it! Check your figures and see what percentage of those who get welfare, food stamps and etc. are white, and whatpercetage are black, Mexican or Arab. No, there is not equality for all -white people get the shaft! Ignoramus!

Answer 9

I believe the Pledge says. . ."Liberty and Justice for all." All includes everybody, African Americans, Hispanics, Asians, Indigenous Tribes, Middle Easterns, White people. . .and yes, ignoramous people like yourself.

Answer 10

Show me where this "UN earned privilege" is being offered to whites here in this country? I am white and have worked for every god damn thing I have....Lets not get folks in an uproar who might actually believe your bull ****....
