This Saturday (March 24), Westporters will join millions of other Americans, in rallies against gun violence (and the politicians who enable it).
There are “March For Our Lives” marches of every size, and nearly every location.
Westporters will gather at 6:30 p.m. in the Bartaco parking lot, then head over the Ruth Steinkraus Cohen Bridge to Main Street.
The biggest event is in Washington, DC. Others in New York and Hartford will draw area residents too.
The “06880” tagline is “Where Westport meets the world.” If you’re marching anywhere, please send photos to dwoog@optonline.net. Include caption information, and any other details.
And if you’re going to the Ruger demonstration — or will be part of a counter-demonstration there — we’d like to see those images too.
In 2012, protesters on the Post Road bridge raised the issue of gun violence. This Saturday, they’ll cross it — for the same reason.
