      WHAT?! Let me tell you about the teacher who fired his gun in school YESTERDAY: 1. March of 2016, he told police he had someone killed! 2. He was then hospitalized for suicidal thoughts. 3. January of 2017, he was hospitalized again for mental health.https://www.ajc.com/news/crime--law/breaking-teacher-custody-after-shot-fired-school/Yszy9v7Z9Vy86bTp9ygdWJ/ …

      Georgia High School Teacher Randal Davidson. Dude had multiple VERY trouble incidents with police before he fired his gun at school. Two years ago he told police he had someone murdered AND KEPT HIS JOB AND HIS GUNS. White privilege is DANGEROUS. https://www.ajc.com/news/crime--law/breaking-teacher-custody-after-shot-fired-school/Yszy9v7Z9Vy86bTp9ygdWJ/ …pic.twitter.com/GR4DPmGnr6

          I am not connecting th dots to white privilege. When we stop connecting everything to the color of the skin and focus on character we would make progress.

          White men who commit mass murders, commit violent crime and/or have mental issues and guns either commit suicide or are brought in to custody yet cops kill unarmed black men due to fear and you can't see the privilege? Please.

          Your making sweeping judgements across people based on a handful of events. That’s called racism. Each event is unique and has to be treated as so.

          My "sweeping judgement" is pretty damn factual. I also didn't state every single case is the same so maybe you need to look at cases of black men getting killed by cops in the past 4 years and look at the treatment of Dylann Roof and Nikolas Cruz

          Stop espousing white privilege. You have no real argument so you make something up. Move to South Africa where they are just taking people’s lands and giving it to blacks.

          You know there was an apartheid in South Africa. White colonizers took South Africa’s valuable resources....

          White privilege is the end result of white supremacy. You can't have one without the other.

          White privilege is dangerous, indeed. Poor health care is dangerous, too. Mental health care is part of health care. When health care is rationed, everyone loses. American health care is rationed by affordability. This case illustrates the challenge. We can expect to see more.pic.twitter.com/qAaakY8QdL

          So now we arm the kids against the teachers? NRA will like that cause it means more guns sold.

          WHY did this man own a gun? I'm a big fat no for guns in schools until we have a system in place that vets those people who have had mental illness. And EVEN then its still a big fat NO to guns in schools. This isn't the wild west it's 2018.
