I happen to agree with you, that if this were the case, then he should have never even gotten to the microphone stand in the first place.
Does anyone know of a firsthand news account that states he eluded security to enter the auditorium?

I asked my nephew about security and if the guy had barged in. My nephew said he himself was never searched and as far as he knew there was no security check or pat down. He said he saw Meyer standing in line to go inside and thinks he was sitting in the audience at the time he decided to go to the mic.
Again, my nephew was on the left hand mic asking the last question as it was announced by the organizer and at that time Meyer got up and went over to the right hand mic that had been closed off and went on his rant about how he should be able to ask his question. They decide to let him ask a question even though he was out of line and then he proceded to go on his mission which is when all these video clips start.
At no time did he shove anyone away from the mic so he could speak.
