Snowden would have never gotten that job at Booz Allen if he wasn't a White Male

62. What does the POTUS have to do with white male privelege? That analogy is played out and wrong.

WE THE PEOPLE elected Barack Obama. Some dude or dudette (probably white) at BAH hired Edward Snowden. You see the difference?

Until you walk in black or brown skin, you'll never know the depths of the ingrained white privelege in this country. There's no way in hell a black kid with a GED would be hired ANYWHERE, at that pay grade, and he/she certainly wouldn't have been granted the kind of access given to Mr. Snowden. You don't have to acknowledge any of this, but this is the American way, and has been from the beginning.

Snowden has opened the door to a lot of unintended discussions, and some of his former, well paid colleagues will no doubt pay a price for it. And can you point out the "illegality" you're referring to? As I understand it, that's not even alledged. You may consider it unethical, but when there's a court order involved, how is that "illegal"?
