President Obama Heckled By Anti-Abortion Protestors During Ohio Speech

During a campaign speech this weekend in Cincinnati, Ohio, President Barack Obama was twice interrupted by anti-abortion protestors who heckled the president for his stance on abortion.

As the president delivered his remarks to the crowd, a man stood up in the rafters and began heckling the president. Holding a large cardboard sign displaying photographs of aborted fetuses with text reading “this moral wrong should never be a constitutional right,” the man was drowned out by the crowd’s boos and chants of “four more years.”

The speech was again delayed as the crowd noise grew in support of police officers attempting to pry the heckler away from the metal railing and remove him from the venue.

After that incident ended, and Obama launched back into his speech, another heckler sidetracked the event.
