Chris Hayes Claims He Didn’t Get Arrested For Pot Because of White Privilege, “If I Was A Black Kid Instead of White Kid With Glasses My Ass Would’ve Been In A Squad Car”

Via HuffPo:
MSNBC host Chris Hayes responded Friday to New York Times columnist David Brooks’ piece on why he doesn’t smoke pot anymore, delivering a powerful account of how race and luck helped him escape arrest at one of the biggest events in politics.
Hayes attended the 2000 Republican National Convention in Philadelphia, but not without a little bit of trouble at the security check-in. He inadvertently had a bag of weed in his luggage — one that despite being caught by the police, came with little consequence.
The MSNBC host predicted that in a best-case scenario, the cops thought he was a senator’s son — an incident with “a whole bunch of headaches” that they “did not need” on a night with greater security concerns.
“I can tell you as sure as I am sitting here before you that if I was a black kid with cornrows instead of a white kid with glasses, my ass would’ve been in a squad car faster than you can say George W. Bush,” Hayes remarked

"When this asshole isn't dressing up as Rachel Madcow for the 9pm show, he is saying some really stupid things. Truth is Pajama Girl you probably didn't get arrested because they weren't sure whether you should go to the men's or women's prison. And why would the police want to put him in the back of a squad car and have to cleanup the mess he left after he had a panic attack, shit and pissed him/herself. Chances are 1) it never happened, or 2) it was below the amount they prosecute for. I vote for one based on the way these libtards lie. And what was this 21 year old, bed wetting, drooling Leftist doing at a Republican convention? Better yet, why would they let him in? Did he get confused and think he/she was at the Democrap Convention. There is no chance in hell this shit stain on the underwear of life is telling the truth. He's full of shit. What a f**king Idiot! Not a wonder he is on that network. Just his looks makes getting arrested is the least of his problems.Your a pathetic moron who should climb out of Mommy's basement and start acting like an adult.

Well Chrissy, I'd say that the President has made a liar out of you, and you've made an ass out of

Quote of the Day:

  "First, it postponed the employer mandate. Then it exempted from the individual mandate people whose policies were canceled (by Obamacare). And for those who did join the exchanges, Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius is “strongly encouraging” insurers — during the “transition” — to cover doctors and drugs not included in their clients’ plans.

The insurers were stunned. Told to give free coverage. Deprived of their best customers. Forced to offer stripped-down “catastrophic” plans to people age 30 and over (contrary to the law). These dictates, complained an insurance industry spokesman, could “destabilize” the insurance market.

Translation: How are we going to survive this? Shrinking revenues and rising costs could bring on the “death spiral” — an unbalanced patient pool forcing huge premium increases (to restore revenue) that would further unbalance the patient pool as the young and healthy drop out.

End result? Insolvency — before which the insurance companies will pull out of Obamacare.

Solution? A huge government bailout. It’s Obamacare’s escape hatch. And — surprise, surprise — it’s already baked into the law.

Which is why the GOP needs to act [to ban any bailout of insurers]... Such a bill would be overwhelmingly popular because Americans hate fat-cat bailouts of any kind. Why should their tax dollars be spent not only saving giant insurers but also rescuing this unworkable, unbalanced, unstable, unpopular money-pit of a health-care scheme?" --Charles Krauthammer.
