The gathering at a park gazebo in Huntsville, Ala., was by no means the largest of Saturday’s nationwide protests against President Trump’s “zero tolerance” border policies, though it was memorable for other reasons.

It began around noon, as an Episcopalian priest delivered a prayer to about 100 protesters gathered around the gazebo and a man marched back and forth in front of her, shouting “womp, womp!”

“Holy and ever-loving God . . .” said the priest, Kerry Holder-Joffrion.
“Womp, womp!” said the man.

The man was parroting former Trump campaign manager Corey Lewandowski, who had uttered the same sound on Fox News several days earlier during a discussion about migrant children being seized from their parents at the border. Lewandowski’s sarcastic “womp, womp” revolted many people — but also apparently inspired a certain segment of Trump’s supporters, as the people at Big Spring Park were now discovering.

POSTED 12:55 PM, JUNE 30, 2018, BY WHNT NEWS 19, UPDATED AT 11:17PM, JUNE 30, 2018


HUNTSVILLE, Ala. -- A former Huntsville City Schools teacher is in custody after police said he pulled out a gun at a protest in Big Spring Park.

"He pulled out a gun. I saw him holding it out in front of him. We just started screaming for everybody to drop to the ground," said Ava Caldwell, a rally organizer. "We all dropped to the ground crying."

Lt. Michael Johnson of the Huntsville Police Department confirmed Shane Ryan Sealy, 34, was arrested Saturday and charged with menacing and reckless endangerment.

Huntsville City Schools spokesperson Keith Ward confirmed that Sealy previously taught at Grissom High School. Ward added Sealy has not worked for the school system in, "roughly two years." Ward later added that Sealy had only been a teacher there for around 8 weeks in 2016.

"At first he was just heckling, he had a sign, you know, 'deport everyone.' It wasn't an emergency at that point. But when he pulled out the gun things escalated really quickly," said Heather Resendez, co-organizer of the event.

. . .

"I saw him pull it out. He said 'I will shoot everybody here' so me and my people who were sitting the gazebo so we ran and laid down the in grass right here and we were yelling at people to get down, cause a lot of people over here didn't see this person, they didn't see he had a weapon," said Resendez.

. . .

After police contained the situation, a ten year old girl was supposed to speak at the event. However, the young girl was so shaken she could not even recite her speech.

"She was too scared to stand up there now by herself, even with her mom next to her, so her mom read her little story," said Caldwell.

11. This is what I imagine Neanderthals looked like.

Seriously, they could probably revisit be the Geico commercials with this nutter. “So easy even a caveman can do it”

[Mendocino]

17. His old lady is

Bertha...Bertha Butt...one of the Butt sisters.

19. First thing I thought when I saw our missing link perp.

[Leghorn21]

3. Oh please merciful gods, make sure that Lewandowski scumsucker hears about this

Amen

[Lucky Luciano]

5. That would just give him bragging rights. Better he doesn't hear.

[Leghorn21]

9. Aw man, you are totally correct.

Dammit

[Hoyt]

4. Hope officials throw the white winger in jail for a long time

and take his “right” to own guns away.

[Racerdog1]

6. Typical tRumptard

POS couldn't rub two nickels together, and this trashy asshole thinks rumplethinskin stands for him. Morons like this never cease to amaze.

[LiberalLovinLug]

14. And the sad part is that one stupid brainwashed moran with a gun

vs hundreds of unarmed decent, intelligent, caring, families, children etc... don't stand a chance.

[paleotn]

8. This scum...

needs his life ruined. Sorry, but I give no quarter to Magats.

[GulfCoast66]

13. Had one of the liberals there had a concealed carry permit

He might well be dead now.

Pulling a gun is expressly a threat to your life and is legal justification for the use of deadly force.

Good thing he was white. Had he been Black the police might have ‘handled the matter’.

[LiberalLovinLug]

15. If he were black, and if it were a confrontation with a Trumpster deplorable pro-ICE rally.....yikes

[BumRushDaShow]

21. If he were black

his remains would have been splattered all over the lawn of that park by the cops from all the police bullets fired.

[Akacia]

16. So thankful that he is not currently teaching.

I hope he is never allowed to be in a classroom if he finds it acceptable for children to be placed in cages!

[zerobytes]

20. He probably has tenure in AL. Sure that is he type of "education" they are looking for.

OH, right. He's white.
