Why can't we all be as progressive as this Georgetown student who was mugged recently? Imagine the racial harmony if we all followed his example.
I was mugged and understand why

Last weekend, my housemate and I were mugged at gunpoint while walking home from Dupont Circle. The entire incident lasted under a minute, as I was forced to the floor, handed over my phone and was patted down.

Who am I to stand from my perch of privilege, surrounded by million-dollar homes and paying for a $60,000 education, to condemn these young men as “thugs?” It’s precisely this kind of “otherization” that fuels the problem.

If he was shot, would he be posting that? Probably not.

his mindset sounds like a perfect recipe for socialism. (and I'm sure your post was wholly sarcastic, at least I hope)

Lol. Well I'm probably not as loaded as him. I guess he won't mind if I steal all of his electronics out of his home.

Racism on both sides is as bad as I've ever seen at 33 y/o over the last few years. Poor leadership in black communities and poor leaders in congress and White House doesn't help either. This country needs a reset button.

I bet we would pick our own cotton next time, or at least get Mexicans instead.

Is this article serious???

"I deserve to be mugged for being white and for not being poor."
I wonder if this guy would be so forgiving if he were robbed by trailer trash? Would he feel so privileged then?

We should all feel sorry for the idiot writer of that article.

I can understand the reason behind the act and still condemn the act. I can see all the steps that led to a person becoming "white trash" or a "thug" and lament choices that were made or situations that were forced upon a person, but that doesn't change the reality of what is in front of me.
Empathy and sympathy do not make you weak, but the delusion that a hostile person cares that you "understand" them will get you killed.
