for them to protest outside. Maybe they decided it would be warmer to protest inside. I guess it was how I was raised, but I was always taught that you don't disrupt a meeting unless there's an emergency. Doesn't matter if it's a church service or a Masonic ritual or just about any meeting. It's disrespectful to everyone attending. Just Southern manners, I guess.
