unbelievable.

America, rather than being a dictatorship,
is a nation of little dictators.

[equaviator]

Was that a real beard or a Sears beard?

[TLI]

Jones and his family were reminded of the rule three times, including graduation night, along with 13 other graduates. They were told if they didn't go in the bathroom to shave, they couldn't participate with the class

Given every opportunity he made his wrong choice.

Hopefully he learned more that day than in the 4 years of high school.

So... you can identify as a woman but not as a man with facial hair.

Nuts.

[RetiredTexasVet]

Should have claimed he was one of Mad Mo’s boys ...

[MUDDOG]

"They told me they had to take my gown from me."

Bearded!
Marked with a beatnik's shame.
What do you do when you're bearded,
Will you fight for your name?

[Mr. Mojo]

Bet you they’d have no problem with a female valedictorian who “identified” as a male wearing a beard.

[goodwithagun]

He’s quoted as saying, “It don’t make sense.” Nice.

[disndat]

That is not a beard...

[headstamp 2]

Stupid boy. He should have worn a dress with earrings.

"It don't make sense, every day of school I went with it, even more, I did shave," said Jones, "I had like sides and everything, but I shaved that for graduation."

Barely speaks English, has baby and a baby momma and he's the smartest one in his class?

obviously it's racism./sarc

[Vermont Lt]

What a stupid rule.

I am glad he didn’t give in. He doesn’t deserve anything for that, but I like how he stood up.

[Bellflower]

Now if he were wearing lipstick and had high heels on, no problem./sac

[dfwgator]

Now when he applies for a job, and the employer goes a cursory web search, he’ll be black-balled as a potential trouble-maker.

[11th_VA]

He was top in the class? We’re doomed ...

[Sasparilla]

...”It don’t make sense, every day of school I went with it, even more, I did shave,” said Jones, “I had like sides and everything, but I shaved that for graduation.”

He’s the valedictorian and speaks “English” like that? Must be low standards to be top of the class.

[loungitude]

If it was up to me, I’d say yes, walk with your beard. But I will rip up your diploma instead of give it to you. Good bye.

[Organic Panic]

Yet Obama marches around the world with his beard...

[fruser1]

And why exactly can’t you have a beard?

Is this where ZZ Top members graduated from?
