UPenn Prof Anthea Butler: Uvalde Police
Did Not Rush into School Because of Mostly
‘Mexican American’ Children

Original Article

Posted By: ladydawgfan, 5/31/2022 10:13:20 PM

University of Pennsylvania (UPenn) professor and MSNBC contributor Anthea Butler suggested that Texas police didn’t respond sooner to the shooting at Robb Elementary School in Uvalde because they “didn’t give a damn” about a school filled with mostly “brown kids.” “So since no one else will ask, I will. Did those children die because most of them were Mexican American and the police didn’t give a damn about a school w predominately brown kids? I mean, because it’s Texas.. and if you think everyone who isn’t white is illegal,” Butler tweeted on Friday. The UPenn professor has since deleted her tweet,

Wonder what her take on abortion is? You know, where 40% of babies aborted are little black and brown ones. And I'll bet $5 that most abortionists are White males.

Did you look at her???!!!! Yikes. One woman freak show! FTA: ast year, the professor said that evangelicals did not follow Christian scripture, but rather, that they followed the Republican Party. That same year, Butler claimed that evangelical Christians are white racists who “may end up killing us all.” In 2015, the professor also attacked Dr. Ben Carson, saying that he deserved a “‘coon of the year’ award.” Tenured, no doubt.

What the....??? Less than 14% of the population there is considered "White", though over 80% is White/Hispanic in the official census description, also less than 14% were "Born in another country". They are NOT "Mexicans", many are Tejanos/Texicans, dating back to before the Mexican Independence from Spain, joined with the American settlers to lobby for statehood within Mexico in 1813, were defeated, then again in 1820, before Santa Ana came to power, were/are related to members of the Texas Republic who defeated Santa Ana in 1836(He marched his army right through Uvalde on his way to San Antonio from Del Rio. The southwest border of Tejas was at the Nueces River), many families where already there long before Mexico sold everything north of the Rio Grande in 1848. She don't know Texas...that county voted 60/40 Rep/dem for decades, nearly all of the city/county/state offices there are and have been Repub for decades, with hispanic office holders.

Clearly almost everyone involved in the school shooting in Uvale, Texas was a Tejano or a Texican. That includes the children in the school, the teachers, the entire Uvalde Police Department and of course the perpetrator. That’s the way it is in all the Texas border or near the border towns that consist of a mixture of Majority Hispanic and minority Anglo culture. Chances are half or more of the US Border Patrol Agents stationed there were also Tejanos, Texicans or are of Hispanic heritage. The apparent incompetent response by local law enforcement had nothing to do with the children’s race or ethnicity. Reportedly some of the Border Patrol Agent’s children attended the school and one of the wives of the Border Patrol agents was a teacher at the school. Also reportedly the Chief of the school district police, also a Tejano or Texican who was born and grew up in Uvalde ordered local law enforcement not to enter the school as the shooter had stopped shooting. That order was against established law enforcement active shooter protocols and may have caused already wounded children to bleed out and die. Who knows for certain at this point. That stopped when Border Patrol Agents disregarded the Chief’s flawed instructions, and took it upon themselves to enter the school, where they located the shooter and killed him. The ultimate blame for those murders lies with the perpetrator who obviously was a violent mental case or was at least an extremely anti social personality bent on committing suicide by cop.

A simple Wikipedia search would have determined that Hispanics make up almost 80% of the population; whites not quite 20. The people largely identify as Tejanos. Wikipedia defines Tejanos as: the residents of the state of Texas who are culturally descended from the Mexican population of Tejas and Coahuila that lived in the region prior to it becoming what is now known as the state of Texas before it became a US state in 1845. The term is also sometimes applied to all Texans of Mexican descent.

Biden Makes Cannon Fodder of History 13 replies

Joe Biden tells whoppers with such frequency, it is difficult to know when he is telling the truth. Remarkably, even when his falsehoods are publicly condemned, he unabashedly repeats them, apparently on the premise that if a falsehood is repeatedenough, the American people will believe it. Biden thus tries to dupe the American people into believing a distorted view of history and law in aid of his far-left political agenda. Of course, the currency of the far left has long been to revise history and law in ways that cast aspersion on the champions and cause of liberty in order to bring about “transformational change,”

A week after the tragic shooting at Robb Elementary School in Uvalde, Texas, details are increasingly emerging that change the original timelines that were given. The updates, as it turns out, are often more tragic and infuriating. Matt highlighted on Friday afternoon how the Texas Department of Public Safety, Col. Steven C. McCraw explained that they had made the decision for officers to not go in to engage with the shooter, Salvador Rolando Ramos, the 18-year old who is now deceased. This happened all while Ramos murdered 21 people, as parents desperately tried to go in to save their children but were physically prevented from doing so by police.

"Multiple people close to the White House said they’ve heard that chief of staff Ron Klain will depart at some point after the midterms, and one has heard him discuss leaving," the report alleges.

Former President Donald Trump has signaled he will announce his presidential intentions after the November midterm elections. Yet his record of endorsements is quite mixed. By the sheer numbers of winning primary candidates his stamp of approval is impressive, but in a few of the most important races, not so much. The disaster that is the Biden Administration has been a godsend for Trump. Had President Joe Biden simply plagiarized the successful Trump agenda, there would have followed no border disaster, no energy crisis, no hyperinflation, and no disastrous flight from Afghanistan. Had Biden followed through on his "unity" rhetoric, he could have lorded over Trump's successful record as his own,

On top of everything else, an appeals court judge has upheld DeSantis’ redistricting maps against an effort to strike to it down and replace them with one drawn by a Harvard professor.

The more than 500-page document consists of 13 chapters and breaks down reparation suggestions for the eligible black community in California to compensate for the 'racial terror' they've endured. The task force voted in March to limit reparations to descendants of slaves, overruling reparations advocates who wanted to expand compensation to all black people in the US.

Yellowstone National Park, Wyo. — A bison gored a 25-year-old woman in Yellowstone National Park. The bison was walking near a boardwalk at Black Sand Basin, just north of Old Faithful, when the woman approached it on Monday, according to a park statement. She got within 10 feet before the animal gored her and tossed her 10 feet in the air. The woman, from Grove City, Ohio, sustained a puncture wound and other injuries. Park emergency medical providers responded and transported her via ambulance to a hospital in Idaho. Park officials say it's the first reported bison goring this year.

The Biden administration has tethered federal school lunch funding to compliance with gender identity ideology, including whether a school allows boys to use girls restrooms and locker rooms. The move comes as the Biden administration is using heavy-handed measures to enshrine gender ideology into federal law. Biden’s Department of Agriculture announced earlier this month that in order for schools to receive funds for student lunches, breakfasts, and other food items, it must comply with its interpretation of the ban on discrimination based on sex in Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972 and other food-related programs, which includes sexual orientation and gender identity.
