kurtz woman will join school gun safety walkout

A kurtz woman will join her Rapid City Central compatriots in a walkout in memory of seventeen people murdered at a Florida school.

She and her older sister are leaving South Dakota for bluer states very soon.

Central High School Senior Rose Lamoureaux says, "The idea originated with the Majory Stoneman Douglas students in Florida after the massacre happened. It was theater students actually who started this. They decided they wanted to be heard. Their voices were going to be heard. It spread really quickly because we feel that our safety is the most important thing because it's a learning environment. This is where we should go to feel safe." Walkouts from classes around the country and in Rapid City are scheduled for March 14th.

Some members of Rapid City's law enforcement industry believe more guns in schools is no solution to violence and may exacerbate tensions.

Wild Horses of Red Rock

After consulting with the Horse Shelter and an equine veterinarian Donnamarie and Larry have decided that the best way to protect ten free-roaming horses is to keep them in their care. Forage is scarce and the only water available is from wells on their property so the four mares that will foal very soon will be safe, well cared for and as wild as possible. About fifteen acres is fenced with horse-safe wire but the gate is always open so the herd can come and go as they please. The couple has been buying hay and so far that is working but the three stallions need to be gelded and that is expensive so we're asking you to pony up to help defray the cost.
