Marco Rubio heckled at Faith & Freedom Coalition meeting today.




Two men stood up during the Florida senator's speech and began
shouting that they were undocumented immigrants while yelling ...


"Why do you keep supporting the deportation of families?"

"We all want jobs like anybody else!"



They were quickly escorted out by security while Rubio with a straight
face ironically praised how they have a right to protest.

Edit to add ...

Although Rubio had an opportunity to comment on the mass murders in Charleston he chose not to. Instead he spoke out to reaffirm his support of private gun ownership. Great timing Marco.
