Because that's not the issue here. The issue in my mind is why, the groups listed feel the need to hold commencements that exclude the rest of the student body? Those groups fight for inclusiveness, yet feel the need to hold celebrations that exclude others. Seems to me they want it both ways. Gotc...

We both know very well the history in play. I won't insult your intelligence by rehashing it here. How it applies to 2023? Well, the judge and jury on that seems to be everyone else but white guys. Their message continues to be pretty clear - there is still a lot of work to be done. As an example, I...

Again, not hard to understand. Are there double standards in play? Yep. Are there very good historical reasons behind the current double standards? Yep. As a white guy, do I feel threatened or triggered by certain student groups at GVSU celebrating themselves with their own graduation celebrations? ...

If inclusiveness and diversity is so important, why do these groups feel the need to have additional and separated ceremonies that exclude others? Beyond because they want to, you’d have to ask them. The difference is one of the easiest things to understand, IMO. Inclusiveness and diversity applies...

What that quoted clip leaves out is that those ceremonies are in addition to the traditional commencement ceremonies organized by college:

Here's the info on the Lavender graduation:

However, my father had this happen to him -- and literally almost exactly like you describe. He was diagnosed with Menieres Disease.

I totally agree that it's selective enforcement, as I stated earlier in the thread. If you're in Florida and running a drag show - or supporting one with your liquor license - and you know without a doubt that you are under this extra scrutiny, why would you purposely break the law by admitting mino...

Could not care less about drag shows, one way or the other. My only point in this thread was an attempt to educate about how liquor laws work with regard to already established laws and regulations. If you sell alcohol at an event where illegal activity is occurring, you're putting your license at r...

I'm not suggesting there shouldn't be a punishment levied against the owner of the venue. What I'm suggesting is that revoking one's liquor license seems extreme, especially if there were no allegation of minors being served. Put another way, illegally allowing minors to attend a drag show and serv...

Of course it's 100% politically motivated!! I have zero doubt the goal of this enforcement is a signal to prevent venues like this from hosting drag shows. That said, they deserve to get punished in some manner since there were minors present. Full license revocation does seem severe -- but what we ...

No. Just the presence of minors is against the law in Florida during drag shows. According to the state, "Sexually explicit drag show performances constitute public nuisances, lewd activity, and disorderly conduct when minors are in attendance." A liquor license holder faces consequences when servin...

I read this:

the hotel was only in charge of the venue’s food and beverage concessions

If they're drinking the booze you're providing ... you're responsible no matter who owns what.

The hotel claims it was not to blame for allowing children into the vulgar show. Amir Blattner, the Hyatt Regency Miami’s general manager, told The Post that the hotel was only in charge of the venue’s food and beverage concessions despite [The James L. Knight Center] being attached to the luxury h...

To be accurate the licenses was NOT revoked for a drag show. It was revoked for allowing minors in to the show in violation of florida law. Further more they were warned in advance not to let minors in to the show. That warning was based on advertising that implied minors were allowed. Yeah, but ne...

Izzo's 25 year streak is a terrific milestone for a great coach.

But to me, it has the same exact value that Michigan fans used to be all boastful about when talking about their football team's consecutive bowl streak. Not much.

Show me the national championships to be actually impressive.
