Zitat The event ended early after pro-Trump hecklers, upset about Becerra’s lawsuit against the Trump administration over DACA, continuously shouted slogans and insults at Becerra and Calderon. A group affiliated with the hecklers later boasted that the speakers were “SHOUTED DOWN BY FED-UP CALIFORNIANS” and that the “meeting became so raucous that it ended about a half hour early.”
The event, held in Whittier College’s Shannon Center theater, was free and open to members of the community, and featured introductions from both Whittier’s president and student body president. Becerra and Calderon were to have an hour-long question-and-answer session using audience questions randomly selected from a basket. As soon as they began the discussion, however, hecklers decked in “Make America Great Again” hats began a continuous and persistent chorus of boos, slogans, and insults.
Video captured by an alumnus captures the difficulty of hearing the discussion:

So two wrongs make a right? Glenn Reynolds has some thoughts.
Glenn Reynolds and Rick Moran have two different opinions on shouting down the enemy.
IMHO the simple version is which rules do we use: The Marquess of Queensberry or Alinsky and Sun Tzu ?
Compared to the SJW's behavior The MAGA people were noisy but did not physically assault, or destroy property

We have tried being the good guy in these confrontations. That has certainly worked out well for us.

I've gotten tired of hearing sanctimonious spokespeople from the right saying things like, 'lets not sink to their level' and 'we're better than that'. I say B.S. If you want to win a mud-wrestling match, you're going to have to get muddy. Give 'em hell and make them suffer. Remember, they are not just political opponents. They are truly our enemies. • Reply •

I agree totally. Learn from the history of war, and that’s what this is. England lost the Revolution because they did [not] adapt to the lowly tactics of the opposition. We lost in Viet Nam because we did not adapt. To defeat the Left the Right must be willing to get in the mud and fight them. We should read Alinsky but use Sun Tzu. •

We lost in Viet Nam because the Congress, emboldened by Nixon's Watergate resignation, and the Dimocrat tidal wave that followed, broke their word to the ARVN, and denied them the weapon and ammo replenishment, as well as the air cover promised to them, BY US, in Paris.
