Colts owner Jim Irsay blames arrest on police prejudice against white billionaires
Indianapolis Colts owner Jim Irsay said his March 2014 arrest for driving under the influence was a result of prejudice against him for being white and rich
This is a new twist on an old story. Why has he waited a deccade to speak out and proclaim his innocence of the charges he pleaded guilty to.
Of course he highlights a disturbing trend in American justice. The persecution of white billionaires is there for all to see. If a rich guy cant get tanked up and drive in a haphazard manner what is the point of wealth ?
If he killed anyone he could afford the compensation. Hats off to Jim for exposing the racism at the heart of American justice.
