Group to hold ‘Signs of love’ in nonviolent demonstration

The Klamath Falls Unitarian Universalist Church’s social justice committee will host a nonviolent demonstration in front of the South Sixth Street Starbucks Thursday, April 18, to support marginalized community members.

The sidewalk where committee members and other supporters will gather has recently been frequented by a man holding racist, sexist, white supremacist signs.

UU social justice committee member Anya Kawka said the demonstration, which will begin at 9:30 a.m. with a brief, nonviolence training behind Starbucks, is not meant to make a political statement or confront the racist sign-holder.

Sheriff to hire jail nurse, animal control deputies

The Klamath County Sheriff is hiring a jail nurse, two animal control deputies and a second pretrial release officer.

Sheriff Chris Kaber said the extra positions, approved by county commissioners last week at budget hearings, will bring more attention and safety to inmates and the public at large.

Commissioners also approved $18,000 per year to fund a KCSO smartphone body camera program with 30 cameras for patrol officers.

“Abducted in Plain Sight” will be shown at Pelican Cinemas at 6 p.m. Saturday, followed by an audience question-and-answer session with Borgman. Tickets for the event are $10, available in advance at www.klamathfilm.org
