You have no idea what I do for a living so don't waste your breath telling me what might happen to me if I exercise my First Amendment right to free speech.

In any case, it's neither here nor there. The Hamilton actor spoke out and I'm glad he did. There's no need to apologize and I hope he doesn't.

They do not.

I told you who these actors are.

End of story.

Would you prefer white actors in black face playing those parts, or maybe you think they should audition whites waste and then not hire them?
Agitprop...Bibi was attacked by 2 women in the audience who had to be pushed away. Bibi was being kind, but it happened. The clown who was lecturing Pence about how diverse & inclusive they were wanted no whites in the play, period.

Are you really this obtuse or just pretending? Notwithstanding the existence of a union, the production of Hamilton is a privately run business. It is not a government business. The actors are not paid with public funds.

They are just butthurt by the election. Actually, given the predilections of theater actors, they might be in a constant state of butthurt.

No, the cast should not need to apologize, if Trump, Pence, and the conservatives are so hurt by what was said, maybe they need to have safe places to go where these snowflakes can be protected from any form of criticism against the Trump Administration and their voting history (referring to Pence on that one since Trump, the political novice, lacks any form of voting record.)

If you voted for Trump's non-existent economic policy, that's fine. But stop your hypocritical hand-wringing over bad manners. It's utterly ridiculous.

The media did in fact portray a dismissal of someone as a dismissal of someone who is disable solely because he was disabled. A whole different thing.

That you bought it is on you.
