From the Dennis McBride Photograph Collection (PH-00263) -- LGBTQ+ events and organizations in Las Vegas, Nevada -- Digital images file. Notes from the donor, Dennis McBride: When Carolyn Goodman took the podium to address the crowd the first words she shared were that the Pulse Nightclub shooting was no reason to enact "more gun laws." She was booed and hissed by the crowd, unable to finish her speech. Steve Sisolak led her off the stage and she was ushered from the building through the back door under police guard. Goodman issued a statement from her office on June 13, the day after the vigil, blaming the queer community for politicizing the event. Photographs 5037-5052 depict Goodman's speech, her slow realization that the crowd had turned against her, and her exit from the Center. For a detailed description of the vigil, see Dennis McBride journal entry June 17, 2016. Also see a news article about Goodman's anger in the Las Vegas Review-Journal, June 14, 2016, p. 8A.
