They had no respect for where they were. They had no respect for the occasion. They had no respect for the families who were there to celebrate their kids/wives/husbands/significant other's achievements. Those families/individuals had every right to expect the spotlight to be on those they were there to celebrate. The non-politically minded students in the audience had every right to have the focus be on their accomplishments rather than someone else's political agenda.

I guess you feel the same way about the people who booed at Donny and chanted "Lock him up" at the World Series game he attended. If such manifestations of free speech upset you... THEN GOOD!

Boy, you are laying it so thick.

Let me paraphrase what I was told once, "You haven't accomplished anything until you have a degree in one hand and an offer letter in the other."
These are youngsters looking to build a career and if some of them are idealistic, kudos to them. And the comment from U of M is rather after the fact isn't it?

Staging the walkout and I am sure that a lot of them had their parents there, they stole the day and had a party after the party comparing their middle fingers.

This, coming from a Trumpkin, is outrageous. You probably don't even recognize the irony.

No doubt you also support Alex Jones' disgusting conspiracies against people whose innocent children were killed thanks to the far-Reich misinterpretation of the 2nd amendment. You really need to reevaluate your life - you really suck as a human being.
