1. At first I thought the booing was directed toward him, the POS, but then I realized....

....that the crowd was more likely booing at the two who would not, could not, stand up.

The fans enable assholes like this.

I feel the same way about the NFL and it's asshole players.

2. Unbelievable.

West eventually sent over his bodyguard to check whether the fan was actually wheelchair-bound.

He seriously waited for someone to verify whether this person was in a wheelchair. Glad that I have no idea who this fucker is.

The comments section was fun---my favorite: "He's working his way up to demanding that his followers kneel."

3. I only know of him because he frequently does very stupid things.

4. Yep, besides marrying Kim Karcashingin

That whole extended family needs an extended vacation in the Chernobyl Exclusion Zone.

5. Oh, that was this dude.

I knew about that happening, but didn't pay much attention to who the idiot was.

6. I think he's even dumber than Justin Beiber. :P

I would have refused to stand up too even if there was a chair to support me. I'm an amputee and in a wheelchair even if I can stand up on my own. Well, more or less.

7. That's pretty fucked up, yelling at people till they wave a prosthetic leg back at you as an explana

tion.

8. Well, anyone who says, "I can’t do the rest of this show until everybody stands up”,

can just fuck right off.

[LiberalAndProud]

9. See, that's what I thought.

I also thought that if I were in attendance, I would have felt compelled to sit -- in solidarity with the lonely two.

10. He reminds me of a Sociopath >

•Egocentric, getting self-esteem from power, personal gain or pleasure

•Sets goals based on personal gratification, without regard to whether achieving those goals are ethical.

•Lacks empathy - doesn't care about hurting others.
