The father of a high school freshman killed in the 2018 mass shooting at Parkland’s Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School was removed from the audience at President Donald Trump’s State of the Union address Tuesday night after shouting out during the president’s speech.

Fred Guttenberg, whose 14-year-old daughter, Jaime, was killed in the Feb. 14, 2018, shooting, was escorted calmly out of the balcony gallery of the U.S. House of Representatives chamber toward the end of Trump’s speech.

Guttenberg, a prominent gun safety activist, was invited to the speech by House Speaker Nancy Pelosi.

I noticed the commotion during Trumps 2nd amendment remarks and I figured it was a plant in the gallery. Turns out I was right. I didn’t hear what was said. I was listening to the POTUS. 1st time I’ve seen Rush’s wife. I think she has a lot to do with things Rush supports. Trump had some great people there.

The father lost his daughter. ...pelosi had him there to exact this reaction from him. ...pelosi is the abuser. ..she’s a nasty, evil person. ...the father should never have accepted the invite. He was pelosi prop.

I really don’t want her to go because she is a one-woman wrecking crew, but the calls for Pelosi’s resignation really ought to begin.

First the impeachment debacle, and now, showing her arse to the world tonight.

Sooner or later, Dems in at-risk districts are going to wake up and realize how badly she is hurting the party and their re-election chances. I’ll bet that someone calls for her resignation as soon as tomorrow.

But we could do far worse than to have a democrat speaker who is a doddering fool, probably a drunk, and certainly one who is going senile and falling apart before our very eyes.

Dems, Leave that sad gentleman alone. He’s still grieving his daughter. This is not someone who should be used for a partisan photo op. Anyone of decency would already know this.

What were the white witches chnnting late in the president’s speech? He made a point of talking over them.

It was right after he talked about lowering prescription drug prices. I assumed they were chanting about that, but who knows. They are psychopaths and could be chanting about anything.

If we are talking about a girl here, the name should be spelled Jamie, not Jaime. The Miami Herald needs a proofreader, and maybe some spelling lessons.

On another subject, did anyone else think that the lady who was supposed to be Ruth Bader Ginsburg didn’t really look like her, or is it just me?

Isn't that what democrats do? I think any relative, friend, or witness to a violent crime scene should have their First Amendment rights suspended until they show evidence of reclaiming their senses.

Maybe this was the event alluded to by Hillary regarding Trump and Feb 4th.
