      He used 17 shots and the result:

      sent the two victims to the hospital for their wounds, with one reportedly shot in the shoulder and the other hit in the forearm

      So yes, that was lucky!

      the suspect, 27-year-old Mordechai Brafman, who shot them 17 times, was charged with attempted murder.

      So I guess the shooter was lucky too, he survived the arrest.

            The real question: Is their skin pale enough to benefit from white privilege? B/c that’s all that “whiteness” is.

                And the racists say: Jews are not white. The Nazis said it all the time—the project of the Jews, as far as they were concerned, was to undermine the Aryan white races. And the exclusion of Jews from the category of whiteness is still key to present-day white supremacists.

                Also:

                Well, according to the law of Schrödinger’s Whites, a brilliant conceit that I am not responsible for, in which Jews are white or non-white depending on the politics of the observer, in this context Krug’s Jewishness enhances the story.

                ― David Baddiel, Jews Don’t Count

                (Highly recommend that book, by the way.)

              That’s obviously not all whiteness is when the richest man in the world says you don’t belong to the white club.

              vampire being the most pale of them, someone like bryan johnson, who ironically thinks consuming/injecting blood makes him look younger.
