Tennessee House GOPs are trying to expel Democrats who protested gun violence during a session.
One of the Reps called out past legislator who have done worse but were not immediately punished.
The trio's protest comes days after a shooter opened fire in a Nashville School, killing six.

Tennessee House Republicans have begun the process of kicking three Democratic House members out of their positions for "disorderly behavior" after the trio led an anti-gun protest on the House floor last week.
