couldn't see the podium, but listening it was clear he was being interrupted for a just a couple of moments/few seconds and then he resumed.

later I saw a few very, very young people holding an animal rights banner and chanting their thing.

They were very young, and you know, it wasn't really a big deal.

They're too young to realize the person they interrupted is the MOST PROGRESSIVE candidate on all humanitarian matters under the sun..

EVER.

They just didn't know any better. But "attack" ? I don't think so.
