So, punish everyone instead of punishing the assholes.

My Grandpappy always said, "If you ain't 10 minutes early, you're late."

So many stereotypes in one story. Doesn't Howard know being on time is white supremacy?

Howard is supposed to be a good HBCU.

So certain people showed up late?


Imagine that.

Such a vibrant culture.

Props to the admins for not letting them in and disrupting everything.

Howard is the relatively rich private HBCU. It's like the fictional Hillman from the Cosby Show.

We aren't talking about Southern here.

I was told holding people accountable re time was "White Supremacy".

They got there after the cut off time and they wouldn’t let them in.

So they decided to riot and broke a glass door.


That would qualify as an insurrection in some quarters for infiltrating a locked public building to interrupt a proceeding. Just saying ......

Well, the good news is they were “dissed” and no one was shot. So they have that going for them.

Assuming the video is telling the truth about the times, cutting off access before 5pm for a 6pm ceremony does seem a bit extreme.

There appears to be a lot of people at the entrance, including graduates, so it wasn't just a few straggling family members.

That doesn't excuse acting like idiots and getting the whole ceremony canceled, but it seems like there's more to this story.
