Vigil for the Tucson shootings Thursday at Westlake

Thursday night at Westlake Center, Seattle will mark the weekend shootings in Tucson with a vigil to remember the victims and to support Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords who was shot in the head but survived the assassination attempt.


When:    Thursday, January 13, 2011 07:30 PM – 09:00 PM

Where:    Westlake Center

What:    http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=101250189950483

We as a community will come together to send our thoughts out and pray for the swift recovery of Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords and in memory of all the victims of the events that occurred in Tucson, AZ, on January 8. We will stand as one and send a statement that violence against people you hold disagreements with is never acceptable, and democracy by gun is something that we will never allow in the United States of America.

Event Details:

* We will have candles and paper cups available, but encourage everyone to bring candles and/or small flashlights.

* As we continue to reach out to our elected officials, we’ll update you with more details as they progress.

A loony lefty shoots up Tucson and the liberals in Seattle decide to honor his butchery with a vigil.
