I've said this before: "Private" and "public" is an illusory distinction. If we value free speech, we value it everywhere. And if we're intelligent, we don't have a Q&A and expect all the questions to make the speaker look angelic, or expect one to never go over some time limit. That's how things often go, and not every time this happens do officers start manhandling and tasering someone.
Also, as I've said before. If I attended a Q&A and began acting like the officers acted, people would start thinking I'm belligerent, possibly even maniacal. But when one does it in a uniform it's supposedly fine.
