This isn't right! Why would this be allowed to happen?

I’m gonna take a wild guess and assume that all wrestlers have to conform to a certain set of rules for competition, and this has absolutely nothing to do with this guy being black or having dreadlocks.

This video is disgusting. I would never be the woman holding those scissors. Poor kid.

Now that's racism.

He: -Yelled racial slurs at fellow ref -Put in Sensitivity training & Alcohol awareness program If he‘s proper now, the current case is still off He: 1-disapproved of Andrew’s hair-cover 2-was asked how it didn’t meet regulation 3-instead cited a rule on max hair length🤥 Read

It's a safety issue. Why is a problem?

The referee should be fined, fired, this is totally unacceptable

Would they pull this crap if this it was a different race? I dont know why ppl think they can push around, bully Nubian ppl

Does the rule regulate hair length? If not his coach must really cares about this kid tho.

It damn well should

Rules are only meant for anyone but black people?

It’s fucking rules? Your color doesn’t make you special?

This is disgusting. What a picture, a white woman savagely cutting the hair of a black youth.

Doesnt look very black to me.

Ridiculous

Whip whip watch me nay nay

This kid clearly has been wrestling for awhile now. Why now is this 'rule' being enforced. This is a clear abuse of power and the ref should be removed from this sport.

'criticism from the willfully ignorant mounts on referee who enforced previously established rules. ' I fixed the headline for you.

If there wasn't a clear official rule about dress code ( which there shouldn't be for dreads) this referee should be banned for life from officiating any sporting event.

Refs a racist but why in hell wld his coaches, girl cutting hair not just leave? Why? Why? charlesadler

He should not be allowed to referee ever again and the young man should sue him

Seriously? It’s the rules. He could get seriously injured.

Rules are rules

Hmm what are the regulations? Is there rules on hair length? If not then yea criticism is just.

This is on the coaches who allowed for this to happen and didn’t stand up for their athlete.

Ridiculous

White referee tells high school wrestler told to cut dreadlocks or lose boutA New Jersey high school wrestler had his dreadlocks cut off minutes before his match after a referee told him to lose the hairstyle or forfeit his bout. What does the referee's race matter? Why does the referee’s colour have to do with the story? Nothing it makes this a racist story and not a lap in judgment story! needs to work to bring Canadians together and NotDividUs TITNHS Race baiting much! There is absolutely no reason for the colour of the referee to be included in this headline. Yes we get it there is racism in the world but you, the media, are not helping the problem by printing such ridiculous things. Grow up and help by not adding fuel!
