“Why is it so hard for a pissed off citizen to walk up to a microphone and say “I want equal time for a citizen rebuttalâ€?
Because the Grand Poo-Bah’s security detail will take down anyone impudent enough to try.
I used to be a reporter. Trust me. They won’t. The absolute last thing security is going to do is have themselves on camera roughing up the voter. It’s bad press. Press is the politicians life blood. We are not yet in Soviet Russia.
The shock of having such an action will freeze the mayor and Security will look to that fronen mayor for the nod...which will not come. They will default to closing in but taking no action unless violence is suspected.
