Its not about having the right to come down and make a speech, its about allowing things to quiet down and bring a normalcy to the situation at hand; and not to be at the forefront to create publicity for a club who is more demonized then glorified.

Drakers, they couldn't have canceled that meeting. Why you ask? Because it was required by law to hold this meeting by its non-profit charter from the state of New York, so cancellation was impossible. And furthermore, that meeting was scheduled at that place and date years in advance. Even if Heston could without breaking the law, changing location at that time would have been impossible, since you have to give advance notice of that to the members, and there were upwards of of 4,000,000 members.
