if I go to an Ozzy Osbourne concert the last thing I want to see its the drummer or bassist coming in front of the stage to call me out because of my politics, especially after I paid over $2,000 for the concert.

you never insult or ridicule your customers that pay good money to see you and put food on your table.

1) accepting 25 million means you don't have to apologize, that wasn't part of the deal. It was always about the money.


2) Trump doesn't have to apologize to Obama because both sides said nasty things about each other, its call POLITICS, move on.


the rest of your list is silly.

You believe the lies. That's your problem. Hillary Clinton and her allies paid people to lie and accuse Trump. The fact that you believe them, shows your ignorance. Remember, this is the same media that told you that Hillary was winning, when in fact, the opposite was true.

That said, "White Nationalist"? Again using Democrat talking points destroys your credibility. It's becoming a trigger word to indicate blind allegiance to an political ideology.
He ran away like a little sissy ... he's just like fellow special snowflake Donald Trumpelthinskin.

When your President or Vice President your going to get criticism, people are going to say mean things. They better get used to it. If they can't take the heat they should get out of the kitchen (or politics rather). Trump and Pence should grow a spine and take it like the tough guys they think they are. This is not North Korea, people are not forced to take an oath of loyalty to Dear Leader. In our system, people are allowed to protest and voice their opinions ... even if people think it's rude.

Pence should have told the ******* actor to stuff his BS lecture in his XXX. I would have applauded that retort. Pence had more manners than the whiny, lecturing, Proggie, asshat, actor. Pence shouldn't have maintained his manners, however. Absolutely, shouldn't have.

No one ran away. He was already leaving when the lecture from the cast started.

Presumably, his secret service detail wanted to get him out before the crowd started rushing to leave.

Be rude all you want, but just know that when you behave that way, no one listens to what you are saying, and in fact 9 times out of 10 they will just dismiss it.

Not a smart way to get your message across or to be effective with your protest.

Wrong!

They have no business speaking out like that in a theater. No business at all.

People came to see a play. Do you have any idea as to what theater tickets for Broadway plays cost these days? Why should anyone who paid that kind of money have to put up with a political diatribe from any actor, be that actor liberal or conservative?

Once again, people were there to see a play. Period. They didn't pay that kind of money to have to listen to a political diatribe. It doesn't matter whether or not the diatribe was liberal or conservative in nature.

The actors are there to do a job---and that job is to perform their roles in a play---nothing more. The audience doesn't care what the actors' political opinions are---they are there to see a play. No actor should have forced his opinions on the audience.

If Pence was walking down the street and this actor wanted to say what he had to say, then go for it. Better yet, the actor needs to go on social media and vent away.

And you would be OK if the performers publicly lectured the Obama family when they went to see a performance? I think not. Artists do not get a pass for boorish behavior.
