Heckler Vetoed - now with link

Bill Maher personally helped eject a heckler from his "Real Time" show last night. The heckler was one of the "9/11 cover-up" set who believe the terrorist attacks were really a government conspiracy.
"Do we have some (expletive) security in this building," Maher yelled, "or do I have to come down there and kick his (expletive)?"
Then, when the guy resisted the guards, Maher personally went into the audience to help push the guy out the door.

The crowd went wild, cheering him on. (Video here at funkybrownchick.com.)

Pretty funny. Since the 1960's, heckling seems to have been on an upswing. Some people even defend heckling as being grounded in our right to free speech. But usually it's a way of interfering with someone else's free speech - particularly when it's done in someone else's forum.

New Rules,
Heckling fools:
Get lost
Or get tossed!

  1. Yeah, I missed the show, but I saw the clip on YouTube and added it to my blog yesterday.
