An announcement from the Jeannette Rankin Peace Center following the death of Forrest Clayton Salcido, a local homeless man who was murdered for no reason at all:
On Thursday, December 20th, a number of organizations, including JRPC, are coming together for two events to respond to this senseless murder. We hope you can join us at one or both:
5:30 p.m. -- Take Back the Bridge: Candlelight Vigil
California Street footbridge
Candles provided
6 p.m. -- We Are Missoula: Rally Against Violence
The Badlander Lounge, Ryman Street
I think I will try to go to the vigil. I didn't know Clay Salcido, but I am pained by his death, by the random brutality that permeates this community, this society, this world.
