US President Barak Obama would normally
expect a warm welcome from gay rights
activists ,partiuarly in his own home at the
white house ,but that was not the case
Wednesday
Hosting a reception to observe LGBT Pride
month in the East RoomObama was repeatedly
interrupted by persistent shouts from a member
of the audience prompting a few awkward
minutes before the president instructed
the individual be ejected,
"Listen you are in my house" said a finger-
waging Obama as the person could be heard
to shout about deportations in English
and Spanish
"You know what ,it is not respectful"Obama
added,"You 're not going to get a good response
from me by interrupting me like this"
When it became clear the protester would
not stop,Obama said ,Shame on you"adding
"You shouldn't be doing this" before asking
security to escort this person out,"
A visibly angry Obama joked with the
crowd "As a general rule I am just fine with
a few hecklers,But not when I'm up
in the house,"
