Anti-Gay San Antonio Mayor Ivy Taylor Heckled at Orlando Vigil: ‘Shame On You!’
About a dozen LGBT activists protested anti-gay San Antonio Mayor Ivy Taylor’s appearance at a vigil for the victims of the Orlando terror attack on Thursday night.
“I’m here with you tonight to pray as we mark the loss and the hurt of so many innocent people,” Taylor said before she was interrupted by an audience member who shouted, “You’re part of the hurt!”

Taylor voted against the city’s 2013 ordinance prohibiting anti-LGBT discrimination, later calling it a “waste of time.” The vigil marked her first appearance at an LGBT event since taking office.
