Breitbart.com’s Kristin Tate alerts us to an op-ed published in the Georgetown University newspaper this week that we almost wish we’d not heard about. The headline — “I Was Mugged, and I Understand Why” — is quite the tease, so why were senior Oliver Friedfeld and his roommate mugged at gunpoint? White privilege, duh.
Friedfeld writes:
When I walk around at 2 a.m., nobody looks at me suspiciously, and police don’t ask me any questions. I wonder if our attackers could say the same.
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.
So the police stopping and questioning the attackers who mugged you at gunpoint would have fueled the problem? David Limbaugh and his followers struggled to make sense of it all.

@DavidLimbaugh @AdelleNaz So his parents are paying 60-70 thousand a year for that? #LIbertyUniversity that is all I have to say

@DavidLimbaugh @AdelleNaz What the HELL is Georgetown teaching? Maybe the students should give up their places in school to underprivileged?

@DavidLimbaugh @AdelleNaz What a MORON! If he had been shot & killed, would his parents say it's OK because he was privileged?

Actually, I agree with him. He did deserve to be mugged.
