She’s not the government, you seem to be confused about what the heckler’s veto is.
Sorry, but I’m not in favor of starting a new legal doctrine where people have to consider whether they’re not being sufficiently polite to speakers in public areas. What’s the standard? You tell me, since you want to create one: That someone still be intelligible through background noise? Does loud construction count? Should intent matter? Are we really prepared to start pushing this bullshit through the courts?
I’m sorry, but the whole idea is complete bullshit from the top down. Legislating “civility” for various values of “civility” is a waste of everyone’s time.
And people think college students are too sensitive and whiny. Sheesh.
