One of the common mistakes made by conservatives about the left is that they believe the nonsense they spew — particularly the elitists among them. They don’t. It is mainly for idiots in lapdog media and low-information Democrat voters, who gullibly buy it.
The perfect example of this is:
“ProfB,” presumably Anthea Butler, self-described on her Twitter account as “Head Historian of Religion on Twitter” and “Columnist at MSNBC Daily,” without having the least understanding of why, said it best: “So since no one else will ask, I will.” (No one else asked it because it’s idiotic.)
Only “approved followers” can see her tweets,” but the following screenshot will do the trick:
Did those children die because most of them were Mexican American and the police didn’t give a damn about a school with predominately brown kids? I mean, because it’s Texas…and if you think everyone who isn’t white is illegal…
There were many types of stupid. We’re going to count the ways in a second, courtesy of noted legal analyst and professor at George Washington University Law School, Jonathan Turley — not exactly a raging conservative.

Turley required only two tweets to remove Butler and her insanity. Let’s start with some demographic information about Uvalde (Texas).
Critics have pointed out that Uvalde Police Chief Daniel Rodríguez is Latino as is Uvalde Consolidated Independent School District Police Chief Pedro Arredondo.
A lot of officers who arrived on the spot were Latino. There were even officers with their children among the dead and at school.
Um, Anthea? And you’re a “blue-check,” too. We didn’t know that!

Next up for Professor Turley is the topic I briefly touched upon at the beginning. Butler and other leftists like her are fully aware that they can spew incendiary nonsense, solely for the purpose of inciting anger — or even violence — with no fear of repercussion.
Professor Butler understands that she is free to advocate for herself and her ideas without having to fear university action. This is exactly what faculty ought to have as an issue of academic freedom. It is however a privilege that is often used selectively in today’s world.
As Turley correctly observed, leftist educators can lie, incite, or mislead, without consequences — which they exploit the hell out of — while conservative educators or AnybodyThe left is invincible to anyone who dares. It is blinding, ignorant, or both to believe otherwise.

To Professor Turley’s point — and the dishonesty or idiocy of ProfB — Uvalde County Sheriff’s Deputy Felix Rubio’s 10-year-old daughter Alexandria “Lexi” Rubio was among the 19 dead children.
So, help me out, here, ProfB — did Deputy Felix Rubio not “give a damn” about his own daughter because she was “brown”? The leftists have a lot of confusion.
Let’s get to the bottom of it:
Anthea Butler would say, “I will,” but no one else will. She is an egregious race-baiter. She either ignorantly mouthed off without so much as checking out the demographics of the law enforcement officers and agencies involved, or knew damn well she was lying — and that low-information Democrats would buy her lies.
Sadly, I’ll go with “B.”
