I was at this event, for my son's graduation. I thought that the audience behavior was abhorent - totally lacking in appropriate respect for the prof and for one's right to have and express opinions. And I believe that a State University, Behavior Science College's (which includes political science) convocation is a perfectly appropriate event for his speech. We need our University's to engage, encourage and to raise the level of policy debate. And we need our teachers to inspire our students to constructive community involvement. The rude, close minded and openly hostile response of many in the stands painfully demonstrated how great the need is in AZ today.

Respectfully disagree. A graduation ceremony is a place for celebration of an important event in the lives of both the graduates and their families and is not an appropriate arena for the presentation of partisan political views.

Is it your ignorance, or your agenda, popping out at us?

Has nothing to do with race, you racist!
I have Comanche, Cherokee, and a drop of Seminole, in my blood and I can tell you right now, This has nothing to do with race.

Mexican just like Cherokee, Seminole or Comanche, is not a race.
My ancestors would not let you come on our soil without a fight, even if you were a different tribe, in the same nation of tribes.

A Cherokee would never ever let a Navajo on their soil!!!!

You are in the minority and in the wrong, the time for sitting back and letting ignorant people rant on about things that are wrong is over. This illegal immigration battle will end with you on the wrong side.

Deny it all you (liberal) folks want to, but the Sleeping Giant - white people - are on the verge of taking this country back. The more liberals like Soto insist on socially inept demogoguery, the more the conservative and right-leaning Independent white people will stand in defiance. It's coming. And you folks asked for it by pandering (for decades) to those who don't deserve an ounce of legitimacy in this nation. You reap what you sow. You made your bed, and now you'll lay in it.

I disagree. A graduation ceremony was not the time and place for Ms. Soto's demagoguery.

Indeed! And I like the way you put it.

That's funny, you think that only white people make up this country?
