So say nurse Taiyesha Baker in Indiana. Every white woman? What do you want to bet she excludes Obamas mother?

IU Health investigating after nurse allegedly posts controversial tweet | FOX59



So how many progressives are going to argue that she shouldn't be fired and should continue to be allowed to treat patients? Free speech right? Hopefully she's fired and blackballed and can't work in health care ever.

I'm a Trump hating national health care loving raise taxes on capital gains left leaning Dem..and I think she should be fired immediately.

The point?

A pediatrics nurse who thinks all white boys should be "sacrificed to the wolves"... and tells everyone on Twitter? That's a potent combination of evil and crazy. She should be removed from duty yesterday.

Good question. What is the point of mentioning your own politics here?

Racism doesn't belong exclusively to one race and sexism doesn't belong to one gender as this story illustrates.

It's also off-putting (and naive to think the readers wouldn't notice) that the headline uses softer language by merely calling this a "controversial" tweet (implying that there could be some merit to it), rather than the racist/misandric/Hate Speech tweet that it was.

Yeah, these people are all fools.

I noticed that. Apparently the nurse's remarks are within the realm of acceptable discourse - most may believe it is wrong to sacrifice white baby boys for the good of society but opinions differ.
