    Last night saw Barack Obama invite more than a few guests over to his pad for an event celebrating L.G.B.T. Pride Month. All was going swimmingly until, during his address to the crowd, an activist demanding an end to the deportation of L.B.G.T. immigrants began to heckle el Presidento.

    As you can see from the video, Obama remained pretty calm, although we cannot clearly hear what the heckler is saying. Over to the New York Times:

    The activist, Jennicet Gutiérrez, who is transgender and says she is in the country illegally, interrupted Mr. Obama shortly after he began speaking, calling from the back of the room, “President Obama, release all L.G.B.T.Q. immigrants from detention and stop all deportations!”…

    In a statement, GetEqual and Familia QTLM, activist groups of which Ms. Gutiérrez is a member, said that her protest was held on behalf of “some 75 transgender detainees” who they said were exposed to abuse in the custody of Immigration and Customs Enforcement.

    “There is no pride in how L.G.B.T.Q. and transgender immigrants are treated in this country,” Ms. Gutiérrez said in a statement. “If the president wants to celebrate with us, he should release the L.G.B.T.Q. immigrants locked up in detention centers immediately.”

    You can see Obama biting his tongue at stages but he manages to handle the incident relatively well under the circumstances. Then again, I suppose he has grown used to heckling during his years as White House incumbent.
