Ramos: My "right" to talk over other reporters and ask Trump grandstanding questions was trampled

Is that headline not a fair characterization of what he’s saying here? In what sense was his “right” to question Trump at that moment any greater than any other reporter’s? He says at one point in passing in the clip below, “I thought it was my turn,” but that’s obviously not true. Go watch the video from last night if you haven’t seen it already. Ramos starts speaking as Trump is stepping to the mic, before Trump can so much as look at him. Trump calls on another reporter and Ramos just keeps going.
What he wants to say is that he thought he had a greater moral right to question Trump. He’s an activist. Unlike the other reporters in the room, he was there to push a cause and wanted to use Trump’s media megaphone to amplify it. When you’re speaking open-borders “truth” to security power, your righteous urgency leaves no room for professional courtesy. And now he’s a free-speech martyr, all because Trump wouldn’t stand there and be heckled at length — even though he did eventually let Ramos back in for a little heckling and counter-heckling.

Here's the way I'd write the headline:
Ramos, Like Illegal Immigrants, Can't Wait His Turn - Gets 'Deported' from Trump Event.

Natural result of promoting that rules don’t apply to certain people.

Good call. Special, over everyone else.
Forget about order and politeness.
He’s here to demand of Americans what Americans owe him.
In HIS mind.
