Good thing Bill didn’t have a taser.

But seriously, I’m all for throwing people out. As Bill said, they were not having a debate with the audience. Let them go somewhere else and use their right of free speech and not ruin the show for everyone else.

Thanks for posting the Heckler Ejector video! I changed my blogpost about it to link over here so people can see Bill Gone Wild for themselves. Watching it, I wondered if he was partly playing for the audience.

he probably was partly playing for the crowd, however, he was right. it wasn’t a debate for the audience…it was a debate for the panelist. besides…they were some crazies anyway.

at any rate, he wasn’t overreacting & it was quite comical.

I don’t think he was overreacting either. Those people were being inappropriately disruptive.

I don’t watch Bill Maher, and this clip is the most that I’ve ever seen of his show. I don’t think the audience members deserved to get manhandled, but I’m sooo not surprised that he threw them out for being so disruptive.

I love Bill Maher. He is my hero! I watched him for years. The way he handled that situation was great
