That in itself is a form of discrimination but I'm sure the irony is lost on those who are crying because "shock the gay out of them," Pence wasn't greeted in a manner of unanimous obedience like North Koreans do with their Dear Leader.

I'm glad these kids walked out and excerised their rights but I hope they understand that the world watched their stunt which could bite them in the butt.
We reap what we sow..
Their stunt?
And how, and better yet - why - would this bite them in the butt?
Do you honestly believe these students will be discriminated against because of a political stance?
If so, that's a damn shame.
apparently these days freely walking away from a place as a free person in a free country is enough to cause you to not gain employment.
aaaahhhhh.
the world we live in
Well that's clearly an important decision to be made in the hiring department.
"I'm not too concerned about your qualifications/experience/education, I saw on your FaceBook page you're not a fan of Mike Pence. I can't hire you. Sorry."

that seems to be what people expect.
must listen. must be quiet. must respect.
here is a secret...not everyone on the planet respects pence and they are totally within their rights to hold that respect.
you have to earn respect and being appointed by the orange one does not earn that respect. not in my book.
i dont give respect based on position but i can be respectful and walk away peacefully like these people did.
i know that is a huge taboo these days...you know....in the united states in 2017

So rather than hire based on qualifications, you'd creep on their Facebook and hire them based on what they post.
That's weird, man.
It's a fact that your employer creeps on your Facebook page.

there is always barber college
Okay but what does that have to do with respect?
what does walking away from a place you dont want to be have to do with respect?
Dude, you have complained so much on the different jobs you had "left" and they all have one thing in common, lack of respect from you.

Mr. Pence was elected to the office he holds in an Electoral College Landslide. He wasn't appointed by anyone.

More threats.
What consequences?
What should be the appropriate consequence for students walking out of a speech/event/ceremony?
We get it, man. You think people should worship the state and should be punished for not being a good little sheep.
he already said that he feels like their diploma should have been held from them for 6 months to a year or until they felt like sending it...
you know. cause they walked away from something.....

Did your parents not demand that you act appropriately when in public as a child? Where there no consequences if you didn't?

Punished for lacking the maturity to politely listen to a speaker like the overwhelming majority of people there did.

It shows a level of maturity that is sorely lacking in many of you. Did your parents not demand that you act appropriately when in public as a child? Where there no consequences if you didn't?

my mommy and daddy taught me that i am a free human being and i live in a free country. they taught me that i am allowed to walk away from something if i wish without being punished for it.
guess they were wrong

The students can never repeat their achievement. They will never walk the stage with their friends. Their friends and family will never get to stand and publicly applaud them in the commencement ceremony. They will get their degree, sure... they earned it. But it will ring hollow in years to come.

Sorry to intrude on your little bromance, but who or where on this thread did anyone say that had to sit and listen or else they were infringing on his rights? I asked this earlier but nobody responded.
Based on the tone and typical knee jerk response from you guys, one would think that the ones opposing the protest, are in fact demanding them to stay.

Then your parents did you a disservice. Let us hope that you have done better with your own children.

Not sure about "infringing on Pence's right" but have you been reading The3murph posts? He is suggesting that those students should be punished for exercising their right to walk out. And that they should be forced to sit, respect and listen.
