KROC CENTER: Love your neighbor
We are deeply troubled by the racial harassment recently experienced by Tribal school children at McEuen Park. We fully support the message Chairman Allan conveyed in response, emphasizing that “respect for all people must be a foundational principle of our community.” While there may be debates about free speech and rights, it is never acceptable to show a lack of human decency and community civility.

TRANSGENDER: Hold leadership accountable
I am writing to express outrage and disappointment regarding the recent incident involving Lakeland School District superintendent Lisa Arnold and her actions toward a transgender member of Missoula Children’s Theatre after complaints from some audience members. Ms. Arnold’s apology serves to highlight the systemic issues of discrimination and prejudice within our educational system and the North Idaho community.

MY TURN: Tribe exemplifies 'kindness, generosity and stewardship'
I realize that people are different and that they have different views and beliefs. I respect the fact that they are entitled to their opinion. That being said, I can not remain silent. When is the insanity going to stop? Reading the account of the racial harassment that took place at McEuen Park against students from the Tribal School both saddened and angered me. Adults ridiculing and harassing eighth graders because of their heritage is truly an act of bullying, and the perpetrators are at best, cowards.

PRIDE: Event doesn’t represent Coeur d’Alene
Five years ago, we decided to move from our beautiful home overlooking the Oregon coast to the Coeur d’Alene area. One reason was political as North Idaho had the reputation of supporting conservative values, our values. After a couple of visits, we purchased a home in Rathdrum. When entering the state on I-90, the sign seemed not only to say Welcome to Idaho but welcome to the USA.
DEFAMATION: Thornbrugh’s trial coverage was exceptional
I am writing to celebrate and commend reporter Kaye Thornbrugh for her exceptional coverage of the Posey v. Bushnell trial. Kaye was the sole journalist present during this landmark case, which concluded with a $1.176 million defamation award to drag performer Eric Posey against Summer Bushnell.

MY TURN: The good old days
I was shopping in a local store a couple of weeks ago when I overheard two women talking about how they wish we could go back to “the good old days” when things were so much better. I have heard that same mantra expressed many times over recent years. And I have always had the same internal reaction…good old days? For whom?
