A man is in police custody after brandishing a firearm during a "Families Belong Together" immigration rally at Big Spring Park in Huntsville on Saturday, police said.
Lt. Michael Johnson said Sealy is accused of picking a fight with a protester and pushing the protester. The protester pushed Sealy back, knocking him down. That's when Sealy is accused of pulling out a gun.
Huntsville police said Shane Ryan Sealy, 34, of Huntsville was taken into custody for possessing a firearm within 1,000 feet of the protest. He was charged with menacing and reckless endangerment.
No shots were fired, and no one was injured.https://articles.al.com/news/huntsville/index.ssf/2018/06/man_brandishes_gun_at_families.amp

Former Senator Gary Hart of Colorado, elected in the Democratic wave of 1974 and a leader in the effort to reinvent the Democratic Party in the 1980s, said Democrats were approaching an overdue moment of reckoning with their own limitations. The party, he said, had failed for years to define a forward-looking vision. The pressure of the midterm election heightened, he said, by the Supreme Court vacancy could create a new moment of definition.
There almost has to be a generational renewal of belief systems, said Mr. Hart, a two-time presidential candidate, who is now 81. When we were in power, under Obama and Clinton, I dont believe party leaders did what should have been done, and that is come up with a manifesto for the 21st century.
