A heckler interrupted Joe Biden in the middle of a gun control related speech. Biden told the heckler to sit down as the heckler would hear what Biden was saying before he was heckled. It was unclear, to the article writer, what the heckler said. However, prior to the event, the heckler posted a tweet criticizing the event. The heckler was the father of one of the victims of the mass shooting in Parkland, Florida.

From Fox News:

It’s not clear exactly what Oliver said during the event, which was held in the South Lawn of the White House.

“The word CELEBRATION has no space in a society that saw 19 kids massacred just a month ago,” Oliver tweeted before the commemoration. “‘Most people overestimate what they can do in one year and underestimate what they can do in ten years.’ Not me, not Joaquin.”

Biden paused during his remarks when Oliver’s interruption began and attempted to get him to relent before the man was removed.

“Sit down you’ll hear what I have to say,” Biden said.

“We have one. Let me finish my comment. Let me talk,” Biden added, before the event continued after a brief, but rare, interruption on White House grounds.

Hecklers or protestors during a presidential speech are rare due to strict security measures at the White House. A protestor in 2006 interrupted an event with former President George W. Bush and then-Chinese President Hu Jintao, earning her criminal charges.

Dozens of members of Congress attended the event Monday, including Sen. John Cornyn, R-Texas, who led negotiations on behalf of Republicans. Cornyn managed to get 14 total Senate Republicans to vote for the bill, clearing the chamber’s filibuster threshold.

Sad that the heckler was just complaining about Pedo Joe not taking away our rights fast enough.
Decisions made in grief are rarely good ones.

John Cornyn, R-Texas, who led negotiations on behalf of Republicans. Cornyn managed to get 14 total Senate Republicans to vote for the bill, clearing the chamber’s filibuster threshold.”
Could have just sayd Cornyn is a traitorous RINO.. would have been shorter.

I got something that prezzy sniffy can sit on. It’s about 105 mm in diameter, but it does have a pointy end so there is that. What say you, Old Arty Sgt, charge 7 with a 1/16th second fuse?

My deepest sympathies to the families that lost their innocent children in this horrendous attack. My deepest disdain and disgust to the despicable officer that did not march (charge) to the sound of the gun and take out the POS that was responsible. I do not blame the weapon that the POS used.

In other news , ol Joe’s wife compared Latinos to breakfast tacos.

I certainly don’t hear any part of 81 million voters defending either one of these 2 asshats.

You figure out a way for the evil to be thwarted, in individuals and the whole of tyrannical governments, so as to reduce unnecessary ruination of my fellow man then you can have all my votes.

Until then, sit down, STFU and mind your damned business.
