If the Black superintendent defended himself and dragged that man across the floor, he would have been fired.

[ReviewAService]

racism is alive and well... this guy should be arrested and jailed

[futureglobal]

He showed up to his daughter’s graduation in cargo shorts & a baseball cap.
He’s nothing but red flags.

[kushtaseti]

He literally embarrassed his daughter on her milestone day! 😢

[braziliandoll]

Wow, that was so disrespectful. How could you embarrass your daughter like that.

[AB-etug]

Shameful that white colleagues stood still on this stage & did nothing. Utterly deplorable. Staff did nothing.

[SKOOLYBEE]

He ruined his daughters graduation, but we are the problem😂😂😂

[susanfell]

And they wonder why so many young people act the way they do. It all starts at home.

[williamjackson]

What Eaddy did was assault, pure & simple. He needs to be in jail. If he were Black or Brown, he would be in an orange jump-suit. His apology should not be accepted because it's not sincere.

[christopherbyrdakaSuperman]

He had no business running up on that stage like that, he should have been arrested.

[jerwanzonichols]

That man need to be locked up and put in jail for assault.

[ChefitupChe]

If he felt that strongly, why didn't he grab his daughter off the stage and not touch the superintendent?

[ms.w.]

He created one of the worst memories in his daughter's life. Great job daddy happy father's day you fool.

[labelledujour]

This is how he raised his daughter, with hatred.

[chillrick]

How about upgrading this crime to a hate crime?

[vishnughandi]

When your hate for a group outweighs your love for your daughter.

[rallen]

Should be charged with assault plain and simple

[breal]

Why wasn't the father charged with assault?

[guesswho]

Why hasn't he been charged with assault?

[fionap]

Whatever the reason, he ruined his daughter's special moment and embarrassed her, you can see it on her face.
