As much as people disagreed with him, this was just tacky and unnecessarily rude and cruel. California.

1. Some in Colorado call him "Frackenlooper"

So called "mainstream" Democrats should be defending Democratic Socialism from RW smears instead of joining the right in criticizing it.

This should probably be in primaries.

2. Booing is pretty classless.

No candidate should be booed.

4. People complain that politicians pander to them. But when they speak honestly, they get booed

These people aren't interested in hearing what candidates have to say. They want candidates to come in and tell them exactly what they want to hear.

Rude and offensive.

3. Disagree. People have a right to express their opinion.

The crowd thought his ideas were bad.
So they booed him. I am happy they expressed their opinion on his views.

5. They have a right to boo. But it's obnoxious

Do they only expect people to tell them exactly what they want to hear or to only listen to people who agree with them 100%?

6. That's not expressing an opinion. That's booing someone off the stage...

interfering with his right to speak. He was actually speaking, not booing. And he paid for the right to do it. It's not like he was saying anything in contradiction of the Democratic Party Platform.

It's tacky, rude, and cruel.

7. I agree.

This is not how we win.

8. Locking ...

Sorry, but this post should be in The Democratic Primaries Forum not General Discussion.
