Virginia Delegate Ibraheem Samirah, the youngest Muslim-American legislator in the country (according to his Twitter profile), heckled President Donald Trump at a speech in Jamestown on Tuesday, yelling “you can't send us back, Virginia is our home,” before being escorted out.
Samirah released a statement (read it in tweet below) following the protest, saying, “I just disrupted the @realDonaldTrump speech in Jamestown because nobody's racism and bigotry should be excused for the sake of being polite. The man is unfit for office and unfit to partake in a celebration of democracy, representation, and our nation's history of immigrants.”
