But the crowd singled out Miss USA for the hostile treatment....
Because Miss USA is an icon of America. I'm not saying this is the only reason why she got boo'd, but if you -heavily- disagreed with the actions of a particular country and they came to your nation and rose a flag in a crowd of fellow citizens, would you not be irked? Is Miss USA not, in some ways, little more than a nation's flag? Perhaps she's even worse; she, some would argue, represents the shallower side of a nation, showing what is deemed as perfection, something that the general populace can never have.
