Watch: Dozens walk out in protest as Mike Pence speaks at evangelical Christian college commencement

Pence told graduates to “be prepared to stand up,” but some had already had – and walked out.

Vice President Mike Pence was the target of an organized protest at one of the nation’s oldest evangelical Christian colleges. Dozens of students and faculty members walked out on the Vice President as he prepared to deliver the commencement address at Taylor University, in Pence’s home state of Indiana on Saturday.

At issue for some of the graduating class are Pence’s conservative Christian views, WTHR reports.

True to form, Pence offered an extremist Christian message to Class of 2019 graduates.
