Police investigating racial harassment of NCAA women's basketball team in Idaho

Northern Idaho has long been a breeding ground for white supremacist. I moved to northern Spokane County, WA in '90 and they had Richard Butler and his Aryan Nations. A lot of them lived in northeastern Washington. While working at a gun store, we had a number of them as customers. I did my best to ignore them, but to the boss, money was money.
Sad to see they still contaminate such a beautiful country.

Time to round up all the bigots and shunt them to their own island, oh and revoke their ability to use any form of flag.

I had but recently taken over as the Senior Army Instructor of a high school in Southside Virginia when a faction of the KKK held a Saturday morning rally on the courthouse steps of nearby Stuart, VA; pop ~ 1K at the time. The well-advertised event was covered by the local, Martinsville-based television station and drew a considerable audience within the region. At that time--late '80s--our school was about 70% white. At that time and place, students had a designated smoking area and the "Stars and Bars" were pretty ubiquitous--flags, belt buckles, license plates, et al. JROTC classes the following Monday began with the question, "Who saw the clan rally on TV this weekend?" (most had) followed by the question, "What were the three (3) things that were GREAT about it?" (stunned silence). The teaching point follows: First of all, the "group" of rallying clansmen was extremely small; some six in total. Secondly, they looked and sounded so ridiculous that any thinking person would feel only pity for them and their wrong-headed message. Lastly, and most importantly, in these United States we are guaranteed the right of free speech which is not the case in many--to most--countries around the world. Hard to believe that was over 30 years ago. Hard (and sad) to believe that the course the country was on toward a more accepting and integrated society has reverted more-and-more to the tribalism that we should have continued to outgrow as a Nation and which will only divide and weaken us in the present and future. I am in no way depending the actions of those spewing hatred toward the ladies on that Utah basketball team. Free speech does not extend to "communicating a threat." Education is key.
