I have read this paragraph five times and I still do not believe it.
This comes from an article at Salon posted here at Pat Dollard.
Because of these undeniable and pervasive double standards, the specific identity of the Boston Marathon bomber (or bombers) is not some minor detail — it will almost certainly dictate what kind of governmental, political and societal response we see in the coming weeks. That means regardless of your particular party affiliation, if you care about everything from stopping war to reducing the defense budget to protecting civil liberties to passing immigration reform, you should hope the bomber was a white domestic terrorist. Why? Because only in that case will privilege work to prevent the Boston attack from potentially undermining progress on those other issues.

Pervasive malevolent all-encompassing stupidity reigns supreme in this quasi-intellectual attempt to blame white American males for the world's problems.
My parents always taught me to think before I act. Apparently whoever wrote that statement was taught the complete opposite. That's what people are being taught to believe. Acting without thinking is somehow a cool new fad these days.
They just hurt their own cause by acting so stupidly. If you're trying to undermine an entire society you don't tell the country what cards you're holding, especially if they're only three of a kind. Work yourself up to a Royal Flush and then act on your strong hand. But from what I've gathered leftists who have an aversion to their own race, culture and very own existence have an issue with performance, prematurity is generally their main nemesis.
Brian,
The link in the article to Pat Dollard takes you back to the original article at Salon.
