(45,319 posts)activist, Hillary Clinton. What you said then was this:
"People came there to listen to Hillary. The protestors were preventing them from doing that. If they wanted to make their point, they could have waved signs, or worn t-shirts, or done something to draw attention, other than trying to shout down the person everyone else came to hear.
When I went to hear Hillary, I had to pass a gauntlet of chanting, sign-waving protestors. Fine. But at least when I got inside I could hear her speak."

You have also been less than receptive to LGBT protests which include any interruption of those others have come to hear.
I am very uncomfortable with a life or death emergency political movement being exploited in any partisan manner. So when I see those who do not tend to favor a certain tactic become champions of it, I take a very mindful approach.
