Hats off to Missoula City Councilwoman Sandy Vasecka. She's been the lone voice in the wilderness for quite some time now on the transient crisis in Missoula.
There is a very important US Supreme Court case to watch this week, especially if you are someone who is concerned about the invasion of transients in places like Bozeman and Missoula, Montana.
When I first saw this photo of the free camping sign on the RV in Bozeman, Montana- I thought it was just some meme that somebody created for the Internet. Nope, it was actually parked in Bozeman, and it was meant to deliver a very important point.
There's people doing drugs in the middle of the street, there's transients masturbating in public, and one transient even defecated in a water fountain in a local park. She can't even take her toddler to the park near her own house.
The TSOS (Temporary Safe Outdoor Space) recently constructed on private land just off Highway 93 South was the focal point of a meeting on Thursday morning in the meeting room at Stockman Bank.
