Washington (CNN)—President Barack Obama is used to hecklers stopping him during speeches -- but he draws the line when the audience interrupts him in his own house.

As Obama was speaking at a White House event honoring LGBT Pride Month on Wednesday, an accented voice rang out from the crowd. Obama wasn't amused.

"Shame on you," he told his heckler, who was protesting deportations under the Obama administration.

Obama responded, "Listen you're in my house ... it's not respectful."

The interruption persisted, however, and Obama asked for the heckler to be removed from the East Room.

"As a general rule I am just fine with a few hecklers. But not when I'm up here in the house," he said, as Vice President Joe Biden clapped him on the back.

Obama said later if guests are "eating the hors d'oeuvres and drinking the booze," they're typically expected to listen respectfully.

Shortly after the incident, an immigration group claimed the protestor was an undocumented immigrant named Jennicet Gutiérrez, who is transgender. According to a press release, Gutiérrez was a founding member of FAMILIA TQLM, established to advocate for LGBTQ immigrants who the group says are often excluded in the immigration debate.

It would concern me more than an alien here illegally is in the proximity of the President, not that the alien is disrespectful after drinking the booze.

NO zer0, YOU ARE IN MY HOUSE!!!

[miss marmelstein]

Actually, he’s just a squatter.

[Paulie]

“My house”?

Poor, over worked man. He still thinks he’s in Kenya.

[Gaffer]

Says the Section 8 tenant.

[from occupied ga]

Listen you're in my house

That's the problem - he thinks it his when theoretically at least it's ours.

Obama responded, "Listen you're in my house ... it's not respectful."

THE PEOPLE'S HOUSE, IDIOT...and respect has to be EARNED.

[Londo Molari]

Under different circumstances, this person could have been his illegal son or daughter or shim, or...

[Ghost of Philip Marlowe]

Respect?

Like scratching your moley face with your middle finger when say we should show all due respect to a Republican?

Obammie-the-Commie is really, really good at one thing: stirring up lots of hatred.

[Skooz]

Actually, that is people’s house. You’re just a temporary resident.

And the heckler treated the place with more respect than you ever have.

[YourAdHere]

"You're in my house, it's not respectful."

Kinda how I feel about the ten million illegals he just let in.

[SMARTY]

‘respectful’?

“O” wouldn’t know ‘respectful’ if it fell on him from the 10th story!

AND he’s real confused if he thinks it’s HIS house.

[Buckeye McFrog]

His behavior is starting to remind me of someone.

[Fresh Wind]

But not when I'm up here in the house," he said, as Vice President Joe Biden clapped him on the back.

Did Slow Joe nibble on his ear as well, or fondle him in some way?

[Sacajaweau]

that’s called the peoples house.

[Rummyfan]

Obama responded, "Listen you're in my house ... it's not respectful."

It's not YOUR HOUSE, a**hole!

If Obama was a conservative, the headline would read:

OBAMA ATTACKS TRANSGENDER, UNDOCUMENTED IMMIGRANT: "YOU'RE IN MY HOUSE!"

[blackdog]

Very telling slip of the forked tounge on his part.

[gaijin]

“Shut up if you’re in my house, eating my hors d’oeuvres” is a pretty good nutshell explanation of the ACTUAL mmotives of the entire war on poverty.

[MDLION]

So he said “Shame” on another at a LGBT Pride event? He’s shameless.
