Republican Rep. Lauren Boebert Kicked Out of 'Beetlejuice' Performance
GOP Rep. Lauren Boebert was kicked out of a musical theater performance of Beetlejuice last week at the Denver Center.
Surveillance video from the theater shows Boebert being escorted out by security after she was accused of vaping during the show.
Boebert, a Republican from Colorado, has since denied the allegations, saying that she was simply eating a gummy bear and not vaping when she was escorted out of the theater.
The incident has sparked a debate about the use of electronic cigarettes in public places, with some people saying that Boebert should not have been kicked out of the theater for vaping, while others say that she was justified for being removed.
The Denver Center for the Performing Arts has a policy that prohibits the use of electronic cigarettes in its theaters. The policy states that "the use of electronic cigarettes is not permitted in any of the Denver Center's theaters or other public spaces."
It is not clear if Boebert was aware of the Denver Center's policy on electronic cigarettes before she entered the theater. However, she has since apologized for the incident, saying that she "didn't realize" that vaping was not allowed in the theater.
The incident has also raised questions about the role of security in public places. Some people have questioned whether the security guards at the Denver Center were justified in escorting Boebert out of the theater, while others say that they were simply following the theater's policy.
