Protesters shout down New York police commissioner Ray Kelly at Brown University.
Free speech in modern America: Protesters shout down New York police commissioner Raymond Kelly at Brown University.
I don’t particularly agree with Kelly’s policies, but I am even more strongly offended by these protesting thugs. Kelly came to give a speech. They should be respectful and let him speak.
From the press release: From the moment he is handed a possibility of making the first alien contact, Saunders Maxwell decides he will do it, even if doing so takes him through hell and back.
Unfortunately, that is exactly where that journey takes him.
The vision that Zimmerman paints of vibrant human colonies on the Moon, Mars, the asteroids, and beyond, indomitably fighting the harsh lifeless environment of space to build new societies, captures perfectly the emerging space race we see today.
He also captures in Pioneer the heart of the human spirit, willing to push forward no matter the odds, no matter the cost. It is that spirit that will make the exploration of the heavens possible, forever, into the never-ending future.

My fantasy solution to such a situation, no matter who it was speaking, would be to either just leave or step off the stage and retrieve my trusty bull horn and ear plugs and speak for the time I was allotted about what it was that I was going to talk about. I would finish my speech, thank the audience and then go about the rest of my day. The audience and the protestors would be exhausted.
I could see a person like representative Grayson of Florida pulling something like this off.
