let's try some statistics:
And you believe in government supplied statistics? How foolish of you.

And if you believe that then where is all the WHITE privilege?

Well I going to go watch the Cards beat the Dodgers....I hope.

Do you make a distinction between race and culture?

I give it more stock than what someone just thinks, or who might be influenced by biases that cloud judgement. And there is nothing foolish about me doing that.

I'll let others speak for a moment:
The concept of white privilege – with roots in the 19th century, a resurgence in 1980s feminist scholarship and now making a mainstream splash – doesn’t point fingers at white supremacy or racist acts, but at structural and historical problems in society. White privilege is about the way white people are treated, generally favorably, regardless of what is in their hearts and minds.

LOL. Yeah, so an LAPD officer is going to tell someone, "I'm stopping you because you are white". The topic of the OP is a question about "white privilege" not about the habits of the LAPD. There are areas in Southern California where being white is not a privilege, but could be a serious problem. Since you claim to be from Los Angeles, you know very well where those areas are.

White privilege is a myth. Asians do better economically and educationally than white people yet you dont hear "asian privilege"
Its basically black people that made that up and liberals parrot it.
Yes, if you are black, you are more likely to have a negative encounter with police than any other race.
Here is the deal. Black people are victims not to white privilege, but to the consequences of a disproportionate amount if black misbehavior.
There is so much criminal behavior occurring in black areas police naturally become more suspect of black people.
So two guys are walking down the street, one white, one black. Neither are criminals.
First off, neither are likely to be harrassed but the black guy is more likely to be than the white guy?
Why? Is it because cops are racist? Or because 85 pct of the guys the cop arrested were black.
You ask what came first the chicken or the egg? I dont know,
But i can tell you as a fed, 90 pct of my suspects end up being black. Mind you i have no clue who these peope are ir anything else about them when i show up to begin my investigation.
I go where the evidence leads me. And i mostly investigate white collar crime.
Now the question is how can we reduce crime in the black communities?

Whites have an edge. But, the liberals enabling horrible black behaviour, from encouraging out of wedlock births to excusing that many (most?) of them do not speak proper English or achieve reasonable educational goals, is the main reason the black community is such a mess, IMO. For those who are held to low expectations, poor attainment is achieved. Common sense.
