photos of white students with facial hair participating in graduation in previous Amite High ceremonies.


The news story i saw made it sound like it was this year that the white students had facial hair.

The local NAACP gal was on 107 this morning and said she has proof (guessing photos and/or videos) of male students both black and white walking in the ceremony with facial hair.
So why is the NAACP involved to begin with? Agenda much?

Well, it's proof that it's not racially motivated so the NAACP can frick off.

Yeah, typical American media, and the gullible people that consume it. It says it in the first article linked as well. You have to actually read the article, not just the headline.

Somebody nailed it earlier. The majority of Americans voted for change and we got it.

Anything to advance the agenda. That's why Trump is doing so well. Nobody gives a shite about his politics, but everybody with the exception of Marxist are about tired of the bull shite we've been being fed. It's the muslims, it's the gays, it's the trannys, it's the evil guns, it's getting hotter by the minute, the seas are rising, this black kid can't walk at graduation, but these can black power salute at military academies, and on and on and on...

America is tired of it. This story just happens to be a perfect example of what's going on.

And one of the kids with a beard had a doctors note regarding a medical condition where he wasn't supposed to shave because of skin issues


Wish I had thought of this in high school.

That's exactly my opinion. The reason the outliers (Bernie Sanders and Donald Trump) have gained so much momentum has to be America finally saying enough to the career politicians in Washington. That's the only way I can rationalize the options we are presented with of who could possibly take the reins in "leading" the country

A lot of school rules are stupid and unnecessary

I think they should have shaved and this shouldn't be an issue but...I don't get why they chose to enforce the policy after the year was over.


The same reason Taco Bell enforces their health code standards the week they're expecting a visit from the Department of Health - when everyone is going to be there for graduation, potentially including dignitaries, they're going to enforce the rules to the highest degree.

I've got no problem if the story is as we were told - he was warned, showed up with a goatee regardless, and the rules were enforced equally among the graduates.

If there are rules, they should be followed or face consequences.

Rules are rules, but if "they" don't like it, everyone is a fricking racist. Stupid

discrimination is an example of the many issues that have been fought in the parish's desegregation lawsuit for years.


I want an explanation of how this is racial discrimination and what it had to do with segregation. Everytime something doesn't work out for a black person it doesn't mean race was the cause. They have figured out that people are so scared of being considered racist that all they have to do is shout these buzz words and people will scramble to their every whim.

Something didn't work out in my favor? It's time to play the race card. It demeans legitimate race issues by association.

He could have grown that shitty goatee back already, it's not like he had a 2' long beard on his face - frick him, his parents, and the 20 protesters outside.
