I don't disagree a bit.
Okay, the Left like to pride themselves on being more moral and sophisticated and tolerant than the Right, right?

Seriously Doc, I love you like a brother, but the cast was nothing but respectful. The cast/crew cant be held responsible for the whims of a few audience members that wanted to boo - first amendment etc etc
that would almost be like holding all Trump supporters responsible for the few who decided to spray paint incorrectly positioned swastikas on children's parks.
Yet, the VP and epitome of the right comes to a über-diversity, ra-ra so virtuous show, with all of the enlightened left around him. He opened the door to conversation and the cast aknowledged that, so wouldn't enlightened, sophisticated, tolerant people want to do the same? Engage him, ask him why he wanted to see the show? Communicate your values, air you grievances? Or would they act like barbarians and just start yelling?

And the Right likes to preach tough love and thick skin more than the Left, right?
The guy wasn't tarred and feathered. A few investment bankers and trust fund kids booed over their champagne glasses at him. Then the cast made a perfectly tasteful address. This wasn't exactly a lynch mob.
2016.
Trump is president and people still take Doc posts seriously.
No, I'm not blaming the cast at all. I'll dig up the video, they were respectful. It's the audience who were fanning flames.

For Christ's sake the people telling the women about to lose their birth control coverage and the undocumented immigrants whose families are about to get deported to "stop whining" and "get over it" are throwing a tantrum over getting razzed at a fucking historical rap musical.
