A speech last night at the University of Buffalo by Hillary Clinton was disrupted by a lone male heckler who chanted: "Benghazi, Benghazi -- you let them die!"
The former Secretary of State powered through her speech as the man continued to chant for almost a minute. Clinton then appeared to acknowledge the disruption, saying, "We have to be willing to come together as citizens to focus on the kind of future we want--which doesn't include yelling. It includes sitting down and talking to one another."
The crowd of 6,500 erupted in a sustained standing ovation as a show of support . The man was reportedly escorted immediately out of the packed auditorium.
The Benghazi attack continues to be a source of controversary given the limited facts that have come out through official soureces. The former Secretary of State was an early and vocal proponent of the "anti-Muslim video" as being the cause of the bloody attack. That now discredited theory has opened a call for additional hearings on Capitol Hill to get to the truth.
Four Americans, including the U.S. Ambassador to Libya, were killed by radical Islamists in the attack.
