RACISM: It offends us all
It was shocking to learn that Aryan Nation-style racist intimidation took place last weekend in downtown Coeur d’Alene. This behavior was publicly defended and excused by David Reilly, who is connected to both Idaho Freedom Foundation (IFF) and the Kootenai County Republican Central Committee (KCRCC).
No, Dave, “free speech” does not include big trucks with Confederate flags loudly revving their engines and following along slowly while menacing and yelling “N—" at NCAA women student athletes walking innocently down Sherman Avenue on their way to dinner. This horrible treatment does not define our lovely town. These high-level athletes were in our area to compete in the NCAA basketball tournament in Spokane. We cannot allow the stink and stain of racist Aryan behavior to reflect on our community. We must take action.
