Keep groveling suckers. Perhaps she'll drop a few crumbs into your bowl.

Talk about missing the point. The ceremony is for the benefit of the students, not the speaker. We are not arguing over the feelings of the speaker - I don't really care much about how DeVos feels about this whole thing. The point is, they acted in a way that took away what was to be a dignified ceremony conducted for their benefit. We are sad for the students who did not behave in this way and despite having possible distaste for the politics of DeVos, would have preferred to have a normal commencement. There's a strong parallel between the behavior of this commencement and the rioting/looting in black communities when something happens that angers the community.

Concern troll.

Racist concern troll. My bad. Because white college kids never behave badly.

Sure they do. And we criticize them for this tyoe of behavior, too. Completely unacceptable.

In your opinion. Welcome to 2017, Pappy.

Hush!
You know Massa don't any us boo'ing no white lady

That's why massa created those safe spaces for his snowflakes. Toodle on sweetie.

Anybody bother to take into consideration what the actual students at Bethune-Cookman thought about what happened?

I hear all these people posting their disapproval getting up in arms and ready to pitch a fit about how inappropriate and uncivilized the behavior of these graduates was but just out of curiosity do their opinions count at all? There's more than one or two of them so you know maybe they're collective voice isn't something to be ignored or dismissed like, say, the school administration did when they brought that dumb twit in to speak against their objections in the first place!!

Nobody's saying SHIT about the inappropriateness of the school administration for bringing this dumb twit in to speak against student objections.

No that's not the issue anymore.

Now the whole crux of the matter is that these darkskin degreed disrupters lack etiquette.

Gotta love America.

+1 There you go. Actually a few of us did say it, but some of the other folks would rather focus on the students.

That's funny. I have 2 BCU graduates on my team. Both are energetic and very smart. They are also both willing to say what is on their mind when it is for the good of the team. I would rather have those type of people working with me then those just go along to get along.

But does HUD really count as an employer or a jobs program?

It's not a government agency a$$hole. But it is people like you that the students were taking a stand about.

Can we have a moment of silence for all the poor poor white people who've been treated so badly by blacks over all these years please?

Thanks for the reminder to stay away from these threads. You are a freaking idiot. What's the matter, was your kid one of the graduates? Probably so, hahaha.

Hell yes. It's apparently a jobs program for Ben Carson.

Aaaaaaaaawwwwwwwwwwwwwww here we go with this 'black community' motherf*****

Here we go with the swearing. Go burn/destroy something.

Go burn/destroy something?
Oh, you mean like during the 1863 New York City riots when white people ran amok, killing black Americans and destroying the African-American community’s churches, orphanages, businesses and schools? Or do you mean like in 1921 when over a 24-hour time period whites destroyed the prosperous black community in Tulsa, Oklahoma and white rioters used machine guns and dropped bombs (in what may be one of the first recorded uses of a plane for that purpose) on the black community? Which shining example of tolerance and diplomacy exhibited by whites should blacks follow?

Ironically, your rhetorical questions serve to both justify and acknowledging the tendency for the black community to react violently by burning/destroying things, often things nearby, whenever something doesn't go their way. Well done.

Acting out is not "taking a stand".

Well, it actually is "taking a stand". Except there is a place and a time for acting out or taking a stand. Hey, maybe acting out and taking a stand is a common practice at commencements of black historical colleges - I've never attended one in person so I wouldn't know. For all we know, this is an example of expected behavior. We are in fact oppressing them by projecting our expectations of proper behavior at a commencement to this community of students. It is also likely very common for people to use profanity when they have a disagreement. This is their life experience, their way of expression.

I for one am glad that we get a glimpse into this sub culture of America. We all have so much to learn and discover about each other.

To the previous PP, I look forward to a day, when we can all come together and I too will get to call you an a$$hole and bask in the rich camaraderie of cultural exchange.

I've never met a black person at any of the schools I've ever attended or in any of the areas that I've ever lived in or at any of the jobs I've ever held to burn or destroy anything - and yes, I'm speaking of more than 1 or 2 persons - so how does that fit into your cozy narrative of how the black community acts/reacts? Are all these people I've met and know personally anomalies or are they the norm?
Tell me, Oh Wise Authority on African-Americans, who does/doesn't make up the black community?
