Wrong kid. You're criminals! Go back to Mexico!
hey, fuck you. Why don't you go back to wherever you came from? Do you have Cherokee blood? And of the people (dignified, working people) I saw, they were from all over. Irish, Israeli, Polish, Kenyan, etc.
To hell with the Cherokees! You're about as famous as Mexican war heroes.
Hey, why don't you just stay in Boise? What is your ancestry anyway?
Hey, S. Pate! I ain't no Mexican or Injun, that's fer sure!
Boise is nice without "fereners" messing it all up!
LMAO!!
Michael,
You may not be a "Mexican or Injun", but you sure are one ignorant SOB.
I'm guessing your ancestry is "from under a rock".
Deb
a white gal with ancestry in the United States dating to the 1600'; on the side of social justice.
Deb—a Communist who hates America and everything it "stood for in the beginning.”
Deb—a racial snob.
Deb—someone whose opinion Michael cares nothing for.
Have a nice day.
Michael,
I'm the white gal who happens to agree with EditorMom's excellent article.

I don't expect you to care...or understand.
It's OK, Michael. Ignorance can be overcome.
Michael - if you weren't such an ignorant prick, your comments might be funny. Now you are calling someone a Communist because they support social justice? "Everything America stood for in the beginning"? Wtf is that supposed to mean?
And if you care so little what Deb, myself and most humans with an IQ over 75 think, why do you keep coming back here? I thought Boise was such a great place? Can't you secede or something? I'm too busy to look up the link at the moment, but Idaho sure gets a lot more federal tax dollars than it contributes.
Whatever, hate-monger. Knock yourself out.
Deb, you're an idiot! Get over yourself already.
