On the other, I doubt even if they had read his works, that they would have found out much they had not already heard a zillion times. The right wing is totally stuck on various kinds of hate speech combined with trickle-down economics. We've heard it all before. So, what's to shut down? Did Dr. Murray really have anything new to say? Maybe; I haven't read him either. I have a feeling maybe I don't need to read him. I'll look him up though; I don't really remember what exactly his schtick is.
That's about the response I figured. Read? What's that?
The Right having devolved down to zero or below, it's no wonder that the left has devolved too in some cases. Instead of shouting him down, the most appropriate response probably might have been to just ignore him, and let him get the small crowd for his predictable nonsense that it deserves.
