WinterBorn, speaking as a lifelong 'blue collar' person, I became aware of my white privilege in high school when I looked around at the restrictions placed on those less white, as in housing of the early 50s for example. And my generation, not just me, preferred to expand and share that privilege rather than protect it from intrusion by 'them'. Dr. Martin's "content of character" struck a chord. I am aware that many of those he, and others like the 3 kids stuffed into that earthen dam in Mississippi, sacrificed lives for do not live up to that part of the equation, but that is no reason to not erase the limits placed on those that do live up to that statement. I do not understand those who would deny sharing rights based on such a superficial myth as color = divine blessing.Imagine a world for your children to be able to go outside and not witness illegal wetbacks harrassing, murdering or raping law abiding White U.S. citizens waving the Mexican flags overhead. Imagine a world where your children can go outside to a park, venue or shopping mall and not have the fear of a Muslim blowing the damn thing up. Imagine a world where your White children can live in where they can finally be able to relish in a country the founders solely created for their specific race, White people, as indicated in the 1790 Naturalization Act. That's right, this country was founded by our founders for us White people to have privilege's that other races should never have been privy of. That's why Trump should be elected so we can turn back to the basics of which this country was founded. If we do that, our children will prosper and last but not least, we will be respecting our founders original intent. What a simple concept!
You think the fear will stop if you get rid of everyone who is not white? LMAO! That is so cute. No, the only way you will remove fear is to remove freedom. A free society is never a safe society.
As for the 1790 Naturalization Act, this act was repealed, and for good reason. Your fantasies of turning back the clock to times when only white men had any power, is ridiculous. I am sure you think it would be better if blacks, hispanics and women were not allowed to vote. But that ain't happening.
If you want actual freedom, stop pushing the irrational fears and push for individual rights and responsibilities. Don't judge based on trivial bullshit like skin color. Judge based solely on the actions of the individual.
In my opinion, much of the denying of rights is done out of fear and from a position of insecurity.
