You choose to see it as people deliberately disrespecting Mr Heslin and his loss.

I saw that Mr Heslin did want a response from someone in the audience. Mr Heslin left shortly after his testimony and at least an hour before any public testimony was heard.

Are you sure that you hate for guns and gun owners isn't clouding your judgment at least a little?
