Many times in my life I have been in the same room as mortal enemies, people who I would not hesitate to spit upon given the chance. In a civilized society, we don't do those things. We bite our tongues and wait for a more appropriate opportunity to voice our stands where we are not going to embarrass or anger people who don't have the slightest clue as to what any disagreement is all about. And we certainly would not bring in a bunch of people under some pretext of providing entertainment or having a meeting about something irrelevant to the issue, and then dump upon them and make them unwitting, unwilling partners in the issue.
Although such behavior is considered among modern and polite society as being boorish, the cast of Hamilton in New York City did not hesitate to make complete asses out of themselves in a public forum. Vice-President-Elect Mike Pence and his family, probably exhausted from a grueling political campaign and looking for a place to unwind and relax, went out to the Broadway show on Friday night. As they entered the arena, the audience greeted them with boos. Then the cast members decided to berate and dump upon them for being un-American racists unfitting, it seems, to be in the same room as the elites.
In so doing, they proved themselves to be unfit to be in the same room as the Vice-President-Elect... or in any other public forum, for that matter. In the old days, we would just pull out our six shooters and plug them full of lead, but that's no longer proper either. This decadent lack of civility on the part of the cast is unacceptable in all respects.
Their show deserves to flop and their individual careers should rightly end. Let them all go wallow in pig manure where they belong. They can blame each other.
