I am simply gonna post the article because the absurdity is just absurd. Charges were brought against a Black Family that cheered for Their Child-&-Relative during the graduation ceremony and the Superintendent threw them out of the graduation. THEN!? Had POLICE CHARGES BROUGHT AGAINST THEM...! So? We SUPPOSEDLY don't care about education, BUT!? If we CHEER TOO LOUDLY, then we get the commando-rolling Nazi-Cop attack and get escorted out of the building and hit with charges that could land ANY OF US behind bars for 6-months.
Sigh.

Welcome to....
Nazi-America.

A family in northwest Mississippi is facing criminal charges for cheering a loved one on at her high school graduation.
Lanarcia Walker's father, aunt and two other family members are charged with disturbing the peace after the May 21 graduation ceremony for Senatobia High School.WREG-TV out of Memphis reports that Senatobia school Superintendent Jay Foster asked beforehand that people refrain from clapping and cheering until all students had received their diplomas, or they would be asked to leave.
Walker's father, Henry Walker, couldn't contain himself, however, and hollered, "You did it, baby!" as his daughter walked across the stage. Her aunt, Ursula Miller, shouted out her name.
Walker, Miller and two other family members were escorted out of the building, the news station reports. But that wasn't the end of the trouble.
A week or so later, Foster had warrants issued for their arrests. Each faces a bond of $500, plus whatever other court costs might be associated with the charges. There is also the threat of jail time.
"It's crazy," Henry Walker told the news station. "The fact that I might have to bond out of jail, pay court costs, or a $500 fine for expressing my love, it's ridiculous, man. It's ridiculous."
Foster, who declined an on-camera interview, told WREG-TV he filed the charges because he's determined to have order at graduation ceremonies.
The four family members are due in court June 9.
Now? Once again, this is ALLLLLLLLLLLL ABOUT, INTIMIDATION. The whole purpose is no different than what was done in the McKinney Pool Party Incident. Intimidation. Brutality. And then!? Charges ARE DROPPED WITHOUT WARNING. Because the damage has been done and the Whites involved actually know that they DON'T HAVE ANY CHARGES THAT SHOULD HONESTLY STICK IN A COURT OF LAW. But the whole thing is about intimidation and traumatizing the Black People involved. Here is an UPDATE where the charges are ONCE AGAIN!? Dropped.Charges dropped against Mississippi family that cheered at graduation
A Mississippi school superintendent who pressed charges against people for cheering at a high school graduation has now dropped the charges.
According to multiple media reports, Senatobia Superintendent Jay Foster says the school district withdrew the complaints Monday.
"I've had a lot of negative phone calls and emails, but I've also had a lot of support," Foster said of the national attention brought to his actions.
Last week, Foster said that over the past few years, the yelling and screaming at graduation has become too disruptive, and made the ceremony unbearable Foster swore out warrants for disturbing the peace against four people accused of being boisterous at the May 21 ceremony.
"I think it's important to remember that this is a celebration of our community, and the majority of our community wants a ceremony where people are respectful of others and there's some dignity there."
Ursula Miller, one of the parents charged for cheering, said Monday that Foster made more of a disturbance when he got on the public address system to tell people not to cheer.
"When (he) got on the PA system, he made more of a disturbance than I did," said Miller, who was escorted out of the graduation. "Every name was called. Each and every parent heard their child's name called. It wasn't no big disturbance. He's the one that caused the disturbance."
Henry Walker became one of four people arrested when he called out to his little sister, who was graduating.
His mother, Linda Walker, said she was still angry at Foster and was talking to a lawyer.
She said the dropped charge "saves me some time, but it's going to cost them some money. I'm not done with him. He done got my baby's name all over the world," she said. "We're not done."
Foster said he hoped the warrants will serve as a deterrent at future ceremonies.
"We felt like at this point that we had accomplished our goal," Foster said, "which was, if you disrupt the ceremony, not only could you be escorted out, but you could face possible charges. It's really nothing more than a ticket, but it could cost you."
The charges carry a fine of up to $500 and jail time of up to six months.
