The crowd has no excuse aside from the possible reason that this woman's family cheered loudly and enthusiastically enough that the people around felt obligated to join in. Perhaps not obligated, but left out if they did not. This is doubtful. More than likely they were too busy watching the woman's figure and listening to her sexy tone of voice to care.

    When people are so predictable as shown in the video we are at a tough crossroads on spreading the message of liberty. Intelligence and truth is unpopular while beauty and answers created artificially without knowledge on a subject are applauded. This is the hurdle of liberty or any message aside from when or where Kim Kardashian and Kanye West got into an argument at. Blame media who promote this garbage as well as our fellow citizens. Blame the sponsors, the magazines, the television shows, which promote ditzyness and ignorance as 'cute' and promote physical attractiveness above all.

    All in all disappointing.
    Not that I think the people in the crowd are against the surveillance State by and large, but they probably cheered to not embarrass / make her feel more awkward. I'm sure most people in the crowd realized how dumb, incoherent, and embarrassing her response was. It was about as articulate as a three-year old might come up with.

    Her answer reminded me of this...

    I think they have a list of the possible questions beforehand, so they try to plan out a response for each one using smart-sounding buzzwords. When they get put on the spot and aren't well-prepared, they will take parts of answers for different questions and try to throw them all together, but really all they remember are the buzzwords.

    I have to LOL at myself though. Sometimes I give lectures or presentations on topics I know very well- I prefer to speak extemporaneously. Afterwards, I get people who say they liked what I talked about and it was very interesting, but really I don't recall much of the details of what I said. So I have no idea if they are blowing smoke up my ass, or if I was the one blowing the smoke

    She's not concerned since there are smart men working on this problem.
