I find it amusing that people are asking for the safety of the Hamilton cast after a Trump supporter shouted "We Won!" during a performance yet no one scolded the cast for lecturing Pence during a performance. Both sides are in the wrong but enough with the double standards lol

Did you miss the tantrum fit, the President Elect, threw over the Pence/Hamilton incident? The conservative media echoed it, deep and wide.

Here's the text of the "lecture"

[quote]You know, we have a guest in the audience this evening,” he said to audience laughter. “And Vice President-elect Pence, I see you walking out, but I hope you will hear us just a few more moments. There’s nothing to boo here, ladies and gentlemen. There’s nothing to boo here. We’re all here sharing a story of love. We have a message for you, sir. We hope that you will hear us out.”

“Vice President-elect Pence, we welcome you, and we truly thank you for joining us here at ‘Hamilton: An American Musical.’ We really do,” “We, sir, we are the diverse America who are alarmed and anxious that your new administration will not protect us, our planet, our children, our parents, or defend us and uphold our inalienable rights, sir. But we truly hope this show has inspired you to uphold our American values and work on behalf of all of us. All of us.

Again, we truly thank you truly for seeing this show, this wonderful American story told by a diverse group of men and women of different colors, creeds and orientations.[/quote]

BTW, Pence said that he was not offended by what he heard.
