He’s a One-Percenter! rich kid whitey The Revolution

Jonathan Butler, the University of Missouri graduate student who went on a weekend hunger strike, comes from a family worth $20 million. His father is a railroad vice president and made over $8 million last year.

Butler complained about white privilege. He argued he was oppressed. St. Louis Today reported:

Jonathan Butler, a central figure in the protests at the University of Missouri, is an Omaha native and the son of a railroad vice president, the Omaha World-Herald reports.

Butler refused food last week in a move to force the university system’s president, Timothy M. Wolfe, from office. Wolfe resigned Monday and Butler ended his hunger strike.

Jonathan Butler played high-school football at Omaha Central High, where he won a state championship, and earned a bachelor’s degree in business administration from Mizzou, the newspaper reports. He is working toward a master’s degree in educational leadership and policy.

He is a member of a prominent Omaha family. The newspaper says that Butler’s father is Eric L. Butler, executive vice president for sales and marketing for the Union Pacific Railroad. His 2014 compensation was $8.4 million, according to regulatory filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Right it’s ALL A FRAUD!

This all started when Planned Parenthood was removed from campus after the harvesting of babies scandal came out.

Then the students were told the Obamacare was going to be abandoned and go to some other type of care.

Then followed all the suppose “racial” issues, but only one incident had evidence. That was even questionable according to police. It was human waste put up on a wall that some people said looked like a Nazi Swastika. How much you want to bet this was done by a Leftist to stir things up? However, according to police it did not look like a Swastika at all. That’s it there is no other actual evidence.

Oh they tried to say the KKK was running around campus, but there is NO EVIDENCE of that too

Then you have this kid of a lot of wealth orchestrating all this protest. Reminds me of the clock kid and who was his dad.

Basically these Leftist only are looking for any excuse to create chaos on campus. They are dumber than dirt, and just like communist they will not tolerate anyone else opinion.

I can't post this demand enough in order to support the victims..

It's time for the Twenty-eight Amendment. Fitting that it's twice the 14th.

No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges of citizens of the United States; nor shall any State deprive any person of said privileges of the right to study hard, work hard, and succeed.

It's time to end the racist acts of prohibiting people of color the rights to study hard, work hard, and succeed.

These rights already exist in free states but we must now require these rights to be for all in all states*.

* the state of insanity, imagined victim hood, perpetual race-grievance

a student for 7 years. 4 years of being an undergraduate, obtains a bachelors degree. Opts to go for Graduate school = ineligible to remain on parents insurance after a bachelors degree is granted, and if the graduate student goes more than 150 miles from parens address the insurance carrier dows not have to cover the students medical insurance needs. This has nothing about be oppressed, the guy is ineligible for health insurance because he has an undergraduate degree and is seeking a graduate degree (professionalization in the eyes of the insurance industry)

The real oddity is his parents are wealthy and ministers in a Word of Faith church. Just wonder if this guy did a stint in Chicagoland at the Community Agitators opps I mean Community Organizers.

This is all a set up at Missouri University at Columbia. - It is a liberal school that had the gay football player come out of the closet to go into the NFL and than quit, go to the Canadian Football League and quit. Follow the money Berkshire Hathaway - Warren Buffett owns Union Pacific and George Soros is funding Black Lives Matter.

Thanks for that additional information!

I’m glad you see it too. Agree with everything you said 100%!

This information needs to get out to all Freepers and into the mainstream.

What puzzles me even more when i remember something more about Mizzou is that Student Health center has services open for students. This is the student health center like UW Milwaukee wants to have transgender adjustment counseling services, as according to some former students who have are now alumni. Just wonder if there are any Freepers whom are alumni from Mizzou can add to it. The issue of health insurance is a child can receive health insurance till age 25 or until a bachelors degree is received.

take it up with the moderator. it seems to be the person whom spending so much time to destroy has a real problem - YOURSELF.

Yes I am paralyzed from the waist down.

Did you ever hear of hand controls for a automobile? Yes the VW Passat with an automatic has hand controls. Yes the 1986 VW Cabriolet with an stick shift has hand controls. It is a challenge to drive at times! Are you going to criticize me now because I use a Graveley Zero turn to cut my lawn. Or I use a Polaris ATV to go into the woods to deer hunt or ride the trails, with its automatic transmission. a couple of guys are modifying a snowmobile and i just got a Can-Am motorcycle too! What’s next because I utilize a Stihl Pole Saw to trim trees on the property, you will criticize me too. I use a Husqvarna chain saw too! How about the use of forearm crutches to transfer from the wheelchair Polaris ATV or the Graveley Zero Turn, will that be scrutinized too. Okay i get down on the ground to weed the flower beds and plant flowers, and scoot on the ground to keep my yard nice looking!

How about the issue of walking or running around even when a person is in a wheelchair. How about taking the dog for a walk! many times I utilize the issue that I walk or run around. the dog goes for 4 walks a day 4 miles. Okay so I run to the grocery store! There is usage of words even when a person cannot walk or run!

Yes I served in the Marine Corps. Yes I was a Arabic Language Translator. As a child I was in the Middle East with a family of medical missionaries ( both parents were physicians and donated surgical time in Israel and other countries for pediatric (children) needs (cleft palate, and other childhood congenital disorders) where i learned to speak a foreign language. from there i went into the Marine Corps till the Lebanon Barracks Bombing. The family served as medical missionaries till 1996 in the Middle East.

Yes I went to college and graduated in 1990. many times my college education was postponed by yet another surgery, since 1983 I have have 58 surgeries, prior to the military - removal of the appendix! I went to a University in Wisconsin Green Bay that is interconnected by Tunnels between buildings. Yes i went to seminary at Reformed Theological Seminary in Jackson, MS.

Yes I went through a divorce as a pastor, because the ex-wife could not handle the demands of a disabled husband, whom could not do certain things.

After the divorce i went back to the University of Wisconsin Madison and got a Masters degree in Counseling.

I was offered a pastorate of another conservative denominations church as I was working as a counselor, and the church had no pastor to serve in the local area.

Yes, I purchased my own home in 2006, had the wheelchair ramp placed within the garage, because I live in snow country.

I utilize Dragon Naturally Speaking Voice recognition program and recently updated the software and have to get some kinks out of the program with words that do not spell correctly.

Funny you have so much time going through all my past posts. What is your agenda on Free Republic? You spend so much time going after others - so are you the Pit Bull on Free Republic.

You my fellow Freeper have a real problem you dislike anyone on FR that does no meet with your modus operanda or disagrees with your agenda.

You go after the female posters and call them out and so forth. Do you know what constitutes an Obsessive Compulsive Disorder?, Or a Bipolar Disorder?

It is odd because i took care of my mother in my own home until the Alzheimer’s disease progressed to the point that others hired to keep her at home and when it was deemed that i had no choice to place her in a nursing home. For the last year I took a sabbatical from my duties as a pastor and a hiatus from my business to care for my mother.

You my fellow Freeper have assumed at one time I was a woman, because I was taking care of my mother. Oddly enough now you go after a person whom is disabled. Are you not aware that more males are taking care of their parents instead of Assisted Living Center placement, because a nursing home placement cost a lot of money

You call yourself a man Really you are nothing like a man, you are no better than a bully and go after woman and the disabled. What’s next you will go after gun owners, deer hunters and whatever strikes your fancy as someone whom you have a dislike for because - the person shows that truly are an ignoramus!

Maybe it is time the moderator ZOT you from Free republic. Because my dear Freeper you are the troll, the liar and the fraud! i am now 52 years of age, live with being paralyzed, confined to a wheelchair, which makes for getting around difficult and guess what Freeper I work a full time job. So yes i get around the best i can with the use of adaptive technologies to do as much as I can for myself.

Have a great day and you need to get right with GOD!

...i went into the Marine Corps till the Lebanon Barracks Bombing.

You still did not address the question of how you managed to survive being entombed in the rubble for days when not one of my brothers was found alive after the day of the bombing.

Well, you answered a lot of questions that I didn't ask and skipped many on those that I did.

These are all documented on the thread I linked previously. They are documented using your own words.

You claimed to have been entombed in the rubble of the barracks for days. I say you're a liar. This is based on numerous statements and articles from the rescue workers, DOD and Military Journalists who all stated that *NO ONE* was pulled alive from the rubble after the first day.

You claimed to have had 50 surgeries and then at a later date claimed 36. Was there a miracle involved? Did your surgeries go into remission and reverse themselves?

Then there is the issue of statements like this one from your latest post:

"How about the issue of walking or running around even when a person is in a wheelchair. How about taking the dog for a walk! many times I utilize the issue that I walk or run around. the dog goes for 4 walks a day 4 miles. Okay so I run to the grocery store! There is usage of words even when a person cannot walk or run!"

Apart from being just about the clumsiest piece of English Composition I've seen in quite a while, you actually prove my point. I know of "walking" and "running" colloquialisms quite well. It is specifically because you were *not* using these words metaphorically that show you for a liar.

In fact, you were referring to your doctors telling you to walk (as in "ambulate" not "walk the dog") and then later claim paralysis that puts the lie to you statements.

It's you own words you should be worried about rather than mine. All I do is quote you and compare your various statements, like this one for example, made on June 15, 2015: "I served this country and fought in Lebanon and was placed in a wheel chair after the barracks was blown up. after 36 surgeries i walk once again,....."

Then I simply point out what you said as recently as today: "Yes I am paralyzed from the waist down."

By the way - I mentioned your extremely poor English Composition. Others have said this to you in the past and you have repeatedly blamed it on your use of Dragon.

Here's the rub. Dragon has limitations, but they are not the kind of errors you make. (i.e. Sentence fragments, improper and inconsistent capitalization, wrong word usage.) Dragon can't account for things like this: "...since 1983 I have have 58 surgeries,..." (Wow!. Every time we turn around that number changes! 50 to 36 and back up to 58!)

You spent a good deal of time in your rant accusing me of "going after" women posters, the disabled and attacking you because I thought you were a woman. Cite your examples.

You also spent a lot of time "defending" yourself over a divorce, some tunnels at a university and putting wheelchair ramp in your garage. I'm sure it's a very nice ramp and all but I never mentioned any of these things.

"Funny you have so much time going through all my past posts." Not funny at all. I'm 67, retired and this is one of my hobbies.

"What is your agenda on Free Republic?" Well I've never really thought of it as a formal agenda, but I do like to keep JimRob's Forum clear of prevaricating sociopaths.

"You call yourself a man Really you are nothing like a man, you are no better than a bully and go after woman and the disabled." Heck. I only post here because it's a great place to meet Chicks. I pinged a few of my favorite FReeperettes. Maybe they will weigh in on your accusation that I'm "anti-woman."

You know ... if I really exposed of your crap point by point this would turn into the longest post in FR history. But I think that the point is made.

You just can't come up with a consistent story no matter how hard you try. My what a tangled web you've woven.

Dude, lay off.

I’ve had 195 surgeries since I was shanked outside the Congress
House in Philadelphia in 1776. They all hurt and and I know who shanked me.

Thomas Jefferson even came to my sick bed and shanked me again.

As I ride my Acorn Stair-lift out to my ATV, I pity the soul
that must be at the heart of your remarks. I hop up and stomp
my feet in protest of your insensitive and racist remarks.

I’d post more but I’m off to square-dancing class with my hand controls
and later doing some Jane Fonda Aerobicizing. Hand controls.
