Brothers should realize that our deen commands us to enjoin good and forbid evil. If a munkar is perpetrated publicly, then it must also be spoken against in public. This whole "don't judge me" and "who are you to tell me" nonsense is a result of growing up in the West and adopting values that are at times diametrically opposed to those of Islam. That being said, the way the shaykh approached the issue was inappropriate as well. The brother does seem sincere and has some sort of inclination towards deen, so although he made some mistakes, to make him out to be the devil incarnate is wrong.

Abu Musa said: Whenever the Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him, sent his companions on a mission, he would say, “Give glad tidings, and do not scare people away; make things easy, and do not make things difficult.”

[Sunan Abu Dawud, Book 40, Number 4835]

عَنْ أَبِي مُوسَى، قَالَ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم إِذَا بَعَثَ أَحَدًا مِنْ أَصْحَابِهِ فِي بَعْضِ أَمْرِهِ قَالَ‏ بَشِّرُوا وَلاَ تُنَفِّرُوا وَيَسِّرُوا وَلاَ تُعَسِّرُوا
