On Friday night, I was standing on my porch waiting for a friend to come up the front steps when instead a VERY intoxicated man did. He was a young male in his mid-twenties, Caucasian, wearing a polo shirt ball cap, and blue jeans. He was on his phone trying to figure out how to get to the party. He swayed with drunkenness up to my front porch, asked the person on the phone to hold while he got directions. He then asked me how to get to campus.
I told him to head four blocks north and then hang a right and go two blocks east. Really though, he needed to go four blocks south and two blocks west. I knew I was giving him the wrong directions and I did so out of anger. I was pissed that he was walking around my neighborhood drunk with alcohol and white privilege. It wasn’t his fault. It isn’t like I myself didn’t walk around my neighborhood, that very same night intoxicated. I regret it. So, if you are that dude, I am sorry. If you are out there wandering around Clintonville, turn around and head south you’ll hit campus no problem.
Wow, you really are a terrible person. You judged a person by the color of his skin and by the clothes he wore. And then you complain when others do the same thing.
James I also judged him by his drunkeness! And his approaching a lone woman at night in the dark…
but yeah i shuould be ashamed.
I need to form a Drunk Rights group. You know, we get discriminated against? The Man even tries to keep us from DRIVING A MOTOR VEHICLE AND HEAVY MACHINERY! Oh, wait…
I woulda poo’d on your porch.
I’m trying to understand that part about his WHITE PRIVILEGE?
What is that?
