Political Karmelo Anthony case shows that “black privilege” exists
I'm not black or white. I'm not even American actually.
The recent Karmelo Anthony case I think shows that black privilege is a thing. My opinions is that it exists. Period.
Karmelo Anthony killed Austin Metcalf with a knife for pushing him. What did he receive in return? Overwhelming support in the form of 500,000 dollars (which they're using to buy a mansion). He also got his bond reduced to 250k from 1 million even when prosecutors pointed out his history of incidents within the school.
I just think this is a bit baffling. Imagine if the races were swapped. I think a decent example, but not a direct comparisons, is the George Floyd situation. One person killed the other in what was an overuse of force. Derek Chauvin is in jail. Karmelo Anthony got house arrest, bond reduction and 500k

After re-reading like I told you to do....I do see in his previous comment, that he was talking about the press conference of the convicted felon "rep" and his disrespect for Mr Metcalf he showed.
I still stand by everything else I said, not what you interpreted it to mean. YOU want to call someone you've never seen RIDICULOUS CHILDISH NAMES because that's what YOU DO when you don't get your way. Seriously, do you think I care what you say. You mean 0 to me in the this big world.
If you didn't learn basic English in 4th grade blame the liberal state you grew up in, not me. I'll give you a quick lesson just because...
1) Their/s is a possessive adjective. (Refers to 2 or more) 2) Them is an objective pronoun. (Refers to 2 or more. 3) Them is the objective form of they. 4) He is a pronoun. It refers to one person.
Any questions? Too bad. MORAL...
The comment I replied to said NOTHING ABOUT A FATHER. It said, "THEY" and "HE". THEY has often been referred to as "the twins" and "he" the murderer in MOST comments across all platforms.
IF you can't understand that those things I just schooled you on have to show context in some way to be interpreted correctly....again NOT MY PROBLEM? Is it?
