He challenged his critics to a fight. He got one. He's an idiot. No-one was suppressing his speech, they were reacting to it. Then he scoffed at them for not fighting for what they believed in. I doubt very much that he was beaten into silence, by the way. He'll go on yapping.
No he didn't. Saying people are scared to fight for what they believe in does not invite or mean they are afraid to attack him physically. Regardless, someone saying you're scared to fight them, and you actually committing assault to prove them wrong, makes you the idiot in that scenario.
He's clearly an advanced scientific mind, he made the hypothesis people wouldn't fight for what they believe in, and was proven experimentally wrong. He should be grateful for the data point and update his beliefs accordingly. Though in good scientific practice I'm sure he'll replicate the experiment.
