Well, I did get a little drunk afterwords, but whatever.

So there was no chance that a Q&A after her speech might have come up? None at all? Well, even if one did, by getting thrown out of the speech, friedo forfeited his chance to participate in this.
In addition, one does not need to interract to learn something, even if that learning is justifying your opinions. It is quite possible that this candidate would come up with something in this speech which would either validate personally what friedo thought, or maybe even refute it!
But friedo did not want this chance to be edified. It was much better to show no class, poor form and get thrown out, a martyr for a bullshit cause.
Sorry, but we are on a board to fight ignorance. One does this by listening more often than not. And friedo had aa chance to do exactly this. And he wasted it, in my opinion. May as well sit at home stoned if that’s what you are gonna do with your statements…
Yer pal,
Satan

Oh, please, Satan. I’ve listened to several hours of both candidates debating and speaking informally. I’ve read their positions on various issues. Don’t assume just because I was expressing my opinion it was a baseless one. And no, Mrs. Clinton does not do Q&A sessions. I hardly consider myself a “martyr,” either. And I was not thrown out, I was told to put my sign away or leave, and I chose the latter.
You continue to make it sound like I was being extremely disruptive or trying to start a riot, which simply was not the case. My presence there lasted all of 10 minutes. It consisted of yelling “boo” and holding up a sign when she walked on the stage. Big friggin deal, if you ask me. I had fun. I made my point. No one got hurt. I don’t give a shit if you thought it lacked class, but you do not know how much I have researched and listened to each candidate, and you do not know my stances on the issues they represent, so don’t pretend to have an idea as to what my motivation was.
Could someone explain where the Secret Service gets off asking someone to leave a political event for expressing a political opinion without disrupting a politician’s speech?
No threats, nothing nasty. Just ‘you aren’t allowed here because you don’t support this politician’.
I would have told the SS to pound sand. Let them arrest me.
I do not think that Friedo was actually arrested, just asked to leave. Perhaps he could clarify.
