Shane Ryan Sealy, 34, was charged with menacing and reckless endangerment Saturday after pulling a gun on protestors gathered in a Huntsville, Alabama park to support immigrants. He shouted “Womp womp” and sang “Ice Ice Baby” to little attention before pulling out the gun. He was then chased off by those he sought to intimidate, according to reports.
Gun, gun, gun, gun!” someone shouted in video published by WAFF 48 — just as Holder-Joffrion was praying for the nation’s strength.
Panicked shouts drowned her out, and the camera turned from the priest to Sealy, about 15 feet from the gazebo, brandishing what appeared to be a pistol at the crowd.
Most people dropped. “I got down on my face on the other side of the gazebo right here and just cried, I was so in shock,” rally organizer Ava Caldwell told WBTV.
Raw Story reported finding a Facebook profile by his name “full of extremist conservative propaganda,” but it’s been deleted. The Huntsville Police Department would like to remind “the public” that you cannot bring firearms within 1000 ft. of a protest.
