Today I saw all those black dudes that fish at the corner of Burbank and Highland in bayou fountain get written tickets by Wildlife and Fisheries. I'm sure if they were white he wouldn't have stopped.


I saw an agent there two weeks ago on a Sunday Afternoon doing the SAME thing. There were about 6 cars lined up on that shoulder with fishermen all along the bank.

For real, though. How much is that ticket vs. getting a fishing license?

I worked 3 jobs. I had scholarships. And I took loans. Because of this, I graduated in 3.5 years with my bachelors.

But it is white privilege if I can pay for my kids to go to college (as if it is impossible or out of the realm for any other race to think of this same concept as me helping my kids).

People need to seriously think about where their mind is at. Getting ahead in life is hard. But I don't blame other people for reeping their parents' benefits any more than some should blame me for having earned something of value (from nothing) and being able to give my kids a leg up.
