GLENDALE, Calif. (KABC) -- A heated confrontation erupted Saturday when anti-impeachment protesters disrupted an event in Glendale featuring Congressman Adam Schiff.

Rep. Schiff was speaking at a town hall celebrating the recent passage of a bipartisan bill he co-authored recognizing mass killings of Armenians by Ottoman Turks a century ago as genocide.

Shortly after he took the podium, a group of protesters started shouting and calling him a liar. Schiff shared his thoughts on the latest developments in the impeachment proceedings againt President Trump.

Organizers of the event tried to calm them down but police eventually removed the demonstrators from the room. No arrests were made.

whom I have known for many years. Fox News must be really hammering Schiff because one blurted out to me, and how about that Adam Schiff, what's wrong with him? I asked what's wrong with him and their answer was, he's terrible.

That they are "inbred" or Jesus freaks, or such.

I've seen a liberal guy become a militant Trumper after leaving Faux "news" on as background noise during the day.

And I have a couple relatives who are Jesus freaks, to the point no one wants to be around them.

These are who Trump and his goon squads target.

and probably some of Eric Prince's storm troopers. I'd anticipate a lot more of this behavior in the coming weeks and months.
