Leftist Professor Blames Whites and “Trumpism” for Vegas Massacre
Last year, Drexel University professor George Ciccariello-Maher made
the wrong kind of headlines when he tweeted, “All I want for Christmas
is white genocide.”
Some eleven months later, the leftist professor seems to have gotten
his wish. And shortly after a deranged gunman slayed nearly 60 people
and injured more than 500 others in one of the most devastating acts of
violence in our country’s history, this waste of space again took to
Twitter to blame white privilege, mainstream liberals, and Donald Trump
for the slaying.
“A white man,” Ciccariello-Maher first tweeted, accentuating the
identity of the shooter, 64-year-old Stephen Paddock. “It’s the white
supremacist patriarchy, stupid.”
Sensing that perhaps these tweets were not quite enough to get his
bizarre point across, the politics professor expounded considerably.
“But liberals will drown out all discourse with a deafening chorus
screeching ‘gun control,’” he wrote. “To believe that someone who would
shoot down 50 people wouldn’t circumvent any gun law you pass is the
height of delusion. But liberal escapism means talking about easy
questions and proposing easy non-solutions rather than talking about who
kills and why.
