Marjorie Stoneman Douglas High School student Samantha Fuentes didn’t let a little vomit stop her from finishing her speech at the March for Our Lives rally in Washington, D.C., on Saturday.
“Lawmakers and politicians will scream ‘guns are not the issue,’ but can’t look me in the eye,” Fuentes yelled, then gagged and turned to her right and puked on stage.

Her momentary sickness lasted for about a minute, sending networks covering the event to point the cameras toward the crowds.
Fuentes recovered and another woman came out on stage to hold her as she finished her speech.
“I just threw up on international television and I feel great!” she said.
