A petition as has been started to recall Kelly Burke, the Texas Dem councilwoman that we told you about last week who was charged with a misdemeanor after berating a teenage girl in a Trump shirt at a cookie shop:
Look what’s started against the Texas councilwoman who attacked teen girl for wearing a #MAGA shirt -> Recall Kellye Burke from the West University City Council https://t.co/xm3YoT78tP

And as we told you, Burke is a Moms Demand volunteer. But Moms Demand found Shannon Watts has yet to tweet about the incident, which is strange because Watts is a champion of standing up for bullied teenagers. Like these tweets at Laura Ingraham over her tweet about Parkland survivor David Hogg:
Why are Laura Ingraham and other conservative extremists so terrified of a teenager? Maybe they sense the next generation is going to end their ride on the gravy train of lies, anger and meanness… https://t.co/kWa5lRuXpX

Dear Laura Ingraham and pundits who oppose gun safety: Public opinion is not on your side. Oppose us at your own peril.

Watts has tweeted about Burke in the past, mind you. But that was to cheer on the Texas Dem as she ran for the city council:
So proud of Texas @MomsDemand volunteer Kellye Burke! Hundreds of Moms volunteers plan to run in races across the country in 2018. https://t.co/v9RX8H86M9
