Colion Noir Responds to David Hogg’s White Privilege
One thing that really irks me about this marching the people involved, along with the mainstream media, is the selective outrage. Dana Loesch gets up and says a very true statement that crying white mothers is ratings gold, and everyone lost their damn mind – as if Dana wished the death of every black baby in America. Hell, when I said no one cares about dead black kids, I had white anti-gunners coming at me like, “how dare you!” As if they were blacker than I was.
But then Malcolm in the Middle’s David Hogg says, “there’s a lot of racial disparity in the way that this is covered. If this happened in a place of a lower socioeconomic status or a place where like a black community, no matter how well those people spoke I don’t think the media would cover it the same. And I think it’s important that we point that out as Americans and realize that. Because we have to use our white privilege now to make sure that all of the voices that have – all the people that have died as a result of this and haven’t been covered the same can now be heard. It’s sad, but it’s true.”
Wow.
The arrogance of this statement knows no bounds. Who the hell gave David Hogg the authority to put on his white-man’s-burden costume to save me from myself by marching to restrict my right to own a gun that at one point I wasn’t considered human enough to own? This is the shit we’re co-signing? No one said a word about that ridiculous statement. No “how dare you?” or “I can’t believe you would say that!” But let my black ass get up here and fight for a right that would have been denied to me over a hundred years ago, and all I get is “token this” and “coon that.” And I’m fighting for the same rights Malcolm X, MLK, and the Black Panthers fought for; but because he’s a white boy talking about white privilege, it’s okay for him to march on Washington to restrict your freedom. Think about that.
They’d only want to hear from black people who agree with gun control; the same gun control that would disproportionately affect the black communities. Do you think they’re going to go to David Hogg’s neighborhood to enforce these laws? Come on, people. Think!
