Paul Manafort is a perfect example of white privilege
Getting 4 years after being recommended for 20+ years is just stupid.
Come on guys, even the idiots among you have to agree with this one. (Cough cough Adidas)

why do you have to call people will different opinions that aren't hurting anyone "idiots"?

I think a lot of people here agree that it's the money (and the influence that comes with that) that gets sentences reduced. Also helps to be able to pay -blam!- you amounts of money to a team of lawyers.

Wesley Snipes served three years for tax fraud. Al Sharpton is serving zero. They just bumped Manafort's sentence up to 7 1/2 years.

1 RespuestaUhhh, that's being rich, not based on race, the dude who faked a hate crime (name escapes me in) is probably also getting reduced sentence because money.

The rich can easily evade proper sentencing.

That’s capitalist culture, what can I say? 🤗

4 RespuestasI’d say it’s more “rich people” privilege. The tendency of courts to give lighter sentences for white-collar rich people crimes. If he’d held up a 7-eleven for $50 he probably would of got 20 years. But because he was wearing an Armani suit and committed “fraud” (which is what they call it when rich people steal) he only gets a slap on the wrist. Is that white privilege? I would say no. But I suppose white privilege enabled a lot of white people to become rich and powerful in the first place.

It's not the privilege of his skin but his ability to [b][u]"buy"[/u][/b] his way out of it. Apparently money has the power to make the law seem more like voluntary guidelines than rules that must be followed.

Editado por themirror2man: 3/15/2019 1:05:35 PMI'd like to have some of this privilege you speak of.... Yes sir I'll take a boatload 😃 Kinda insulting that all "white" people live in a majikal state of privilege. I went to school with "minority" kids that had waaaay more going for them than I did, hell one snobby "minority" kid want to Big Ten School and got drafted 1st round in Nfl.... parents were doctors or lawyers and used to drop him off at inner city school in a luxury car while we all priveledged people walked. Yea I don't believe in this all assuming term "white" privilege. It's all about what you have $$ wise and who you suck. Maybe change the term to "tribal " privilege. Because inside of every race there is tribal behavior based on a sense of "likeness". If you ain't part of the club of those who live their whole lives at a higher echelon you will never see their tribalism. Never mind your skin color or nationality.

4 years, plus 7.5 years in the second trial. And whatever he gets in the tax fraud, insurance fraud and mortgage fraud cases being prepared against him by the state of New York. [spoiler]#prisonbitchpaulie[/spoiler]

I'd say he's more an example of rich old dick privilege

Just wait for the slaps on the wrists those involved in the college scandal are gonna get

Oh Washington and the Rich are looking out for each other? Who ever could have guessed this would happen.

Some of these rich people have no shame. They get a big tax cut and still do all they can to cheat the system.
