I was in a High School Band, and was the only student not allowed to attend a trip to play in a POUS inauguration. It had nothing to do with my attitude (cough!).
I was in Boy's Choir. They told my mother to come get me in the middle of the night. Technically I didn't do anything wrong.
I was arrested for marijuana possession in High School, because they searched me under false pretenses, and behold, I don't have a key to the school, but I sure have some killer weed man.
I was 86'd from working at a hotel, where I was working as a Bus Boy. To this day I don't know why. Must have been racial discrimination.
I was constantly kicked out of classes, was suspended many times, and expelled.
I was threatened by a cop. He was my neighbor, and his house was burglarized (not by me). He said he'd shoot me if I was caught in his house.
I was nearly arrested for attempted murder. I was toying with a friend and drove my car toward him. Neighbor up the street called the cops.
I was accused of shooting out a window.
I was acting manager, and for the first time, we were awarded the best overall store in the district. They didn't hire me for manager.
I was by far the best and most capable business analyst. They wouldn't even consider me for a supervisor position, despite being independent, a self-starter and highly effective.
I was a Correctional Officer for a stint. They called me into the office and advised me to never to bring drugs into their institution.
I was turned down for one of 13 insurance adjuster positions under State government. Matter of fact, I was ranked 6th on the list. They hired one through five and seven through 14. I was number one on many lists for the same place, and passed over every time.
I've been pulled over many times by the police.
Just a few instances I've experienced during my life under the oppression of a country built for the white man . Only problem is I'm white male. If I were black, I could use every one of these instances to declare "white man keeping the black man down", discrimination, etc. etc. But you know, "you don't know what it's like to live as a black man". Cry me a river, I call BS.
