Okay. Well then we'll stay on the path we're on. -- hoolstoptheheels 05/22/2017 1:59PM

Stigmatize and license discrimination against is more appropriate. -- WahooRQ 05/22/2017 12:13PM

I wonder if they would have walked out on the Pope? ** -- Tuckahokie 05/22/2017 10:55AM

Or refused to attend Notre Dame in the first place. ** -- Hoodafan 05/22/2017 10:58AM

Sticking with my question, sorry but that's a crock to say that was -- Hoodafan 05/22/2017 12:08PM

Maybe could be considered rude, but this isn't a big deal. -- hoodeyo 05/22/2017 10:44AM

I suspect the people being honored at this event did not -- 111Balz 05/22/2017 09:50AM

So? ** -- HokieDan95 05/22/2017 09:54AM

Doesn't change the fact that he was an invited guest. If they didn't -- Hokie5150 05/22/2017 09:54AM
