An Alabama man took a cue from President Trump’s ally Corey Lewandowski and shouted “womp womp” moments before he brandished a handgun at an immigration rally, according to police and witnesses.

The long-haired protester pulled out the weapon after bellowing the same words Lewandowski used on CNN — to dismiss a report of a migrant child with Down syndrome being separated from her mother — as clergy members spoke at a “Families Belong Together” rally Saturday afternoon.

Video from the protest shows 34-year-old Shane Sealy chanting and singing the opening beat to Vanilla Ice’s 1990 hit “Ice, Ice Baby” while circling a gazebo at Big Spring Park in Huntsville.


Although not captured on camera, police said Sealy scuffled with a rally-goer after audibly annoyed members of the audience shouted down his solo counterprotest in support of the U.S. Immigration Customs and Enforcement agency.

“He was agitating the protesters, pushed one of them who pushed back, knocking him to the ground,” Huntsville police Lt. Michael Johnson said. “He then pulled a handgun and waved it around.”

As he tried leaving the park, several witnesses followed and pointed him out to authorities while shouting “gun,” according to video of the encounter. He was cut off by officers who drove their SUV onto the grassy field to confront him.

Sealy was charged with menacing and reckless endangerment, jail records show. He was released after spending eight hours in the Madison County jail.

Sealy had no prior criminal record with Huntsville Police Department and was permitted to carry a concealed weapon, Johnson said. That permit was revoked Saturday night.
