Mike Pence spoke at the NRA conference in his home state of Indiana and was greeted by a resounding chorus of boos, except for one guy who yelled out "We love you, Mike!" Pence chose to only hear that lone voice and responded in kind with "I love you too."

The crowd warmed up a little when he said:

"We don't need gun control," he said. "We need crime control." And he repeatedly urged NRA members to "stand your ground."

The boo birds regrouped and sent him off stage with another round of boos.

But who is he to speak of crime control when he hasn't even called out TFG who tried to incite a crowd into lynching him?

Can you help us out?
