Wacko Professor Tweets Racist Epithet Against Ben Carson
RUSH: You remember there is a lunatic disguised as a college professor at... Where is this babe? Is it Penn State? Come on. It's an Ivy League school. University of Penn, and the woman's name is Anthea Butler. We've talked about this woman before. She doesn't believe in God, Christianity. She's just a lunatic-- I mean, literal lunatic -- and she slandered this show once because of some criticisms we offered of what she teaches. Anyway, the woman's in the news, Anthea Butler because she has called Ben Carson a "coon."
"University of Pennsylvania Professor Anthea Butler called Presidential Candidate Ben Carson a 'coon' for claiming that people have the right to display Confederate flags on private property. 'If only there was a "coon of the year" award...' Professor Butler tweeted in response to another tweet linking to a Sports Illustrated article in which Carson was quoted defended the right of NASCAR fans to fly Confederate flags during races. ...
"The word 'coon' is an offensive term to slander Africans, deriving from the Portuguese word 'barracoos,' which is a hut-like dwelling used to store slaves during auctions... In effect, then, Butler's tweet insinuated that Carson is a metaphorical slave who belongs in a wooden shed." That's the root of the word "coon," I guess. Anyway, she's black, so she can say I guess whatever she wants to say. "This is not the first time the religion studies professor made a racially charged comment on social media.
"Butler believes God is a 'white racist...carrying a gun and stalking young black men' because George Zimmerman was found not guilty in the Trayvon Martin case, and also made bizarre remarks during the [death of the Gentle Giant in Ferguson], referring it as a blood sacrifice." She has tenure "and once boasted that 'I can't get fired' over criticisms from the right," people like me and Sean Hannity and The College Fix. This is the Campus Reform website.
We've posted the contretemps we've had with this woman at RushLimbaugh.com back on July 22nd of 2013, and she's just insane. And she's a tenured Ivy League professor of religious studies. There you have it. I mean, you have a woman on campus that's actually advocating against Christianity and support nothing to be done about it. But how many other people do you think get away with calling an African-American in this country a "coon"?
Nothing is gonna happen to her. Nobody's gonna say a word to her about it. In fact, the people that criticize her are gonna end up being targets.
