Most Privileged White People Of 2016 White privilege . It’s a real thing. And it is reflected in the way that white people continue to receive advantages the rest of us don’t get.

So without further ado, let’s look at some white people who enjoyed their privileges and ran with them all 2016. May they forever get put in their places with epic clap backs and shame.
Congratulations! After kissing all of those frogs, Serena Williams has finally found her Prince, Reddit co-founder Alexis Ohanian. A rep for the tennis pro confirmed the engagement to E!News after she shared this sweet post, where else — on Reddit! The Future Mrs. Kn0thing refers to Ohanian’s Reddit username… Cute right? A source tells E! News Williams’ friends are “so happy” for her: “They’ve never seen Serena this happy before with a man. It sounds cheesy, but it was love at first sight.” Though the insider notes that they are “pretty opposite in many ways,” they are also very similar. “They laugh non-stop and that really fuels their relationship,” the insider says. “They are on the same page in life and are excited to start something great with each other and build and grow a family.” As for a wedding date? We’re told they’re hoping for it to happen in “about a year.” Our source notes, “Serena is excited to plan that!” We bet she is… We can’t wait either! Congrats Serena. Alex seems to be a really sweet guy. Hit the flip to see some of his IG PDA’s Instagram/JordanOplinger
Texas Police Officer Gives Weed Smoker A Chance To Dodge Jail With 200 Push-Ups Every now and then you come across a good cop who actually wants to HELP the citizens he patrols. Enter officer Eric Bell of the Arlington Police Department. When he caught a young man smokin’ that loud in front of a local movie theater (how dumb is THAT?!), he took advantage of the teachable moment and did something that the lifted loiterer will probably never forget for the rest of his life… Too bad we don’t see more cops like Eric Bell… Image via YouTube
Former Student Admits Killing Teacher He Impregnated And Their Toddler Son This story just keeps getting more twisted. Isaac Duran Infante, the student who fathered 4-year-old Miguel Barahona with former teacher Felicia Barahona, both found dead Monday, has admitted to killing them. The 23-year-old confessed killer came to Barahona’s Harlem apartment Christmas night intending to kill her, police sources told the NY Daily News. After knocking her to the floor and choking her with a telephone cord, Infante realized his son with Barahona had emerged from the bathroom. He then choked the boy to death, leaving his body in the bathtub before leaving the apartment and returning to his home in Bethlehem, Pa. Infante was seen arriving at the building and leaving about three hours later on video footage captured from a security camera at a neighboring apartment. He turned himself in to police after his sister showed them a photo of him in the same red hooded sweatshirt he’d worn that night. Police sources say the sweatshirt was left behind following the killings after Infante put on a scarf Barahona had once given him. Police say Infante was angry over his weekly child support payments of $80-$100, as well as upset that Barahona fed Miguel fast food. Infante was expecting another child with a new girlfriend and having difficulty managing the child support payments, according to NY Post reports. Infante, who had a job working at an airport near the Pennsylvania/New Jersey border told investigators that Barahona had taken advantage of him when he was just a teen student and raped him. He faces two counts of first-degree murder. Jeeeeez this is a lot to digest. Of course the little boy is the victim in all this, but despite her obvious manipulation of Infante, Barahona shouldn’t have lost her life. Infante is a victim too still — anybody who watches SVU as much as us already knows he’s going to use his teen sex abuse as a defense in all this. 22 is damn young to be committing murder AND infanticide too — not that there is ever an appropriate age for that!
