The father of a Baraboo High School graduate blocked his daughter from shaking the hand of the Black superintendent as she graduated, video of the incident shows.

The school district, which has had repeated problems with racism and antisemitism, held its graduation Friday. The father was arrested and charged with disorderly conduct, Wisconsin News reported.

The father, who has been identified as 49-year-old Matt Eddy, jumped on stage, grabbed the superintendent and began dragging him to the back of the stage.

          Alright okay, I get it now. But it’s still (imo) eh, because it calls back to the “gay haters are gay” thing which I don’t think is great. Do you get what I mean?

                  that sounds a tad homophobic

                  no u

                  You make a strong case. But using them being closeted gay as an attack does have a bad connotation. Just saying that some gay people strongly dislike such stuff.

                    the only person talking about being gay is you, nazi.

                    the OC said blacked.

                    The father is accused of enjoying watching black heterosexual men have sex with white heterosexual women.

                    get that cum out from your eyes and read.
