Felicity Huffman: They woke us at gunpoint,nothing new to the black & brown community
Felicity Huffman says FBI raided her house after college admissions scandal:
“They came into my home. They woke my daughters up at gunpoint. Again, nothing new to the Black and brown community. Then they put my hands behind my back and handcuffed me and I asked if I could get dressed. I thought it was a hoax. I literally turned to one of the FBI people, in a flak jacket and a gun, and I went, is this a joke?”

Is she complaining? COMPLAINING? Fuck that selfish, entitled, pompous bitch.
She bought her kids way into college on the cheap. Rich people are supposed to donate a shit-ton of money or buy the campus a gym or something but not her. She obviously had stupid children and we can see they come by it honestly.
Felicity, dear, you were and are a criminal. You got off extremely lightly. Now is not the time to whine. Now is the time to shut the fuck up and pretend you're not a cunt.

I never knew USC was considered a good school until this happened. I still don't really think it is. Imaging going to jail to get your kid into USC? I mean, maybe Harvard but whoo boy.

The white trash population of the US is probably larger than the entire black population.
This delusion whites have of themselves is nuts.
I’m in Boston, there’s plenty of white ex con junkies that shatter the illusion all whites live in Stepford, CT.

Calling everybody but Caucasians "the black and brown community" or worse, "black and brown bodies" is one of those so-called progressivisms that is incredibly retrograde.

Although the guns sound very scary she really has no right to complain and got off very lightly. Plus she and the other college fraud moms have made everyone think their kids aren't very bright.

She is entitled and yes, a criminal, but that does not justify being awaken in her house like that. There should be some correlation between you crime, your dangerousness and the manner of your arrest.

This interview was playing in the background while I was working. All of a sudden, I hear "Black and brown community" and just put my head down. I imagine her agent jumped out of the nearest window.

Wasn't there controversy about how these rich people's criminal contrivances kept more deserving students out of top colleges? I am sure some of them would be from 'the black and brown community'.

The really rich thing about what she said was, she’s positioning herself as in the same position as people of color who turn to crime in order to get by. Sorry Frlicity, a rich family bribing their lazy child into the university of spoiled children isn’t the same thing. At all.
All that said, the morning raid with guns drawn was ridiculous. Sometimes violent criminals are not apprehended at their homes with that much force.

I’m not sure she should be talking about this. For the sake of her acting career, you’d think this would be the last thing she wanted to talk about. She needs to move beyond this.
Also, William H. Macy. Nice of him to let his wife take the fall.
If anything, Flicka should be talking about necessary reforms in women’s prisons. There’s a playbook for this. It was written by Martha Stewart.

Her daughter wanted to go to drama school and ended up getting into Carnegie Mellon on her own. It's not Northwestern but it's also not the Copacabana School of Dramatic Art.

She should let us know. Gunpoint? It means anyone can be next for any little thing. They really need to do mental health tests periodically on cops. This was nothing about this that warranted cops even having their guns out.

So this entitled white cunt who cheated and scammed to get her daughter into college is comparing her ordeal to the "black and brown communities" and the police brutality they endure.
Holy Fucking Shit.

Again. she is privileged, and entitled and did a shitty, criminal thing. But criminals have rights too. What she did in no way justifies the police invading her house with guns. It is disproportionate and a violation of human rights. I am from Europe so this is shocking to me. Maybe in the USA this use of police brutality is deemed more usual, I don’t know. If so, it should be rethought. Whatever you think of her personally ( and i do think she was wrong) does nor justify this police action.

Was having two celebrity parents not enough on its own to get the daughter into a decent college?

She says she did it to ensure her daughter had a future. Like you don't have a future if you don't go to an Ivy or a similar University? Please. I did very well with a degree from Bowling Green State University. I retired with several million in my retirement fund.
It doesn't matter where you went if you don't do anything with the skills you learned there.

Huffman and her husband are worth around $45 million, her daughter is studying drama in college, I think her future is secure.

Lori Loughlin was allowed to turn herself in. She and her husband were also more defiant, initially, about the charges. Ended up pleading out and serving 2 months.
Why was Felicity not allowed to turn herself in?

Her face is a mask. What could she possibly be cast in with such a distracting face? Meg Ryan cast herself in the "comeback" movie she directed. I do wonder if some actresses have harmed careers with bad cosmetic procedures.
