White Privilege? What White Privilege?

Here’s the latest from the annals of criminal justice in America:

Beverly Hills police officials said Tuesday that it was “extremely unfortunate” that officers handcuffed and detained an African American film producer who was in the city to attend a pre-Emmy party.

Producer Charles Belk “matched the clothing and physical characteristics” of a suspected bank robber when he was pulled over by officers on Friday evening….“Hey, I was ‘tall,’ ‘bald,’ a ‘male’ and ‘black,’ so I fit the description.”

Come on, Charles! Buck up. Mistakes can happen. I’m sure the Beverly Hills PD would have treated a white guy who fit the description of a bank robber exactly the same way. In fact, I’ll bet this happens all the time to Bill O’Reilly.
