President Biden's speech at a gun control event was interrupted by a pro-Palestine protestor on Tuesday. 

The speech occurred on the same day that Biden's son, Hunter, was found guilty on federal gun charges. 

The crowd tried drowning out the protester who was yelling about "genocide" allegedly committed in Gaza during Israel's offensive against Hamas.

Biden's supporters at the event were shouting, "four more years" repeatedly after the protestor interrupted the remarks.

Biden told the crowd, "no, no, no, no" as they booed the protestor.  

"They care. Innocent children have been lost. They make a point. C'mon now," Biden said.
