The father of a teenager killed in the Parkland, Florida, school shooting who was escorted from the White House after he shouted at Pres. Biden said he's frustrated by the administration's approach to gun safety.

While being escorted out of the event, Oliver repeated that more must be done. Biden said, “Let him talk, let him talk,” as Oliver was led out of the White House. Oliver said that he didn’t plan to interrupt the president’s speech, but that during the event he became frustrated. Manuel Oliver, whose son Joaquin was killed in the 2018 Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School shooting, interrupts President Joe Biden's remarks during an event on the White House South Lawn to commemorate the Bipartisan Safer Communities Act, to help curb gun violence, July 11, 2022 in Washington. Oliver was escorted out of the event.
But Oliver, who since losing his son has dedicated his life to fighting for stricter gun laws, said he hopes the president has more planned, and that this will not make enough of a difference in saving lives. “Why are we putting together this whole idea that we are solving a problem and not?” said Oliver. “We all know that it’s not enough, but we’re all OK with that?”
