Gay combat vet who lost leg in Iraq booed by anti-gay protesters in San Antonio

78. I moved away from San Antonio to get away from idiots like them.

*groan* And into the Hill Country where everybody is even more bigoted and assholey. It's just Texas. I've seen the type of people who go to those city council meetings. Liberals are very underrepresented in them. Even though San Antonio is a minority-majority city, with the median age of 32, it's mostly non-Hispanic whites over 56 that attend those meetings and they trend conservative. Even my sister, that lives in the cusp of the 2-3 Council District, which is predominately Hispanic, tells me that their meeting regulars are older Anglos. Until we liberals get more activist, we're going to be drowned out by these conservatives. They're militant and know the power structure.
