Teacher’s assistant at Illinois State University flips over Turning Point USA table

An Illinois State University faculty member was arrested after he was accused of flipping a Turning Point USA student group's table and tearing down promotional flyers on campus last week.

Derek Lopez, a 27-year-old graduate student and teaching assistant at the university, was captured on camera speaking to a man standing near the table set up by students in the conservative group to promote political comedian Alex Stein’s upcoming event at the institution, before he then tossed the table, video shows.

"Well, you know, Jesus did it, so you know I gotta do it, right?" Lopez told the man before he was seen flipping the table over.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

Mr. Lopez was proudly posting about this on X.  Now the University cops are investigating.
For unvaccinated, we are looking at a winter of severe illness and death — if you’re unvaccinated — for themselves, their families, and the hospitals they’ll soon overwhelm. Sloe Joe Biteme 12/16

Leftists simply cannot handle persuasion and discussion - most likely because they have no logic supporting their positions - so they engage in violence.

I want to see his face when he finds out TA's don't  qualify for tenure or other school protections.   :silly:
I display the Confederate Battle Flag in honor of my great great great grandfathers who spilled blood at Wilson's Creek and Shiloh.  5 others served in the WBTS with honor too.

I imagine the students in the class he teaches are preparing to sue the University if he's not immediately removed from his position before he can assign grades.
