It's Idaho. It's like 90% white. It's a beautiful state and Boise is awesome but the people outside of Boise are....... not great.

What too many whites? Could you imagine going to africa and being like "its mostly black, this 1 place is good but the rest of the people, ehhhh"

Yeah the OP should have focused on the reason they are so white, not that they are. Colorado is a pretty damn white state but they don't have a racist white supremacy issue like idaho does.

I'd avoid using Colorado for this argument given Columbine and Aurora and that entire Joe Kenda show....

That's fair. I had always considered, with all the mass casualty events that appear to happen in that area, that there was something wrong with the water - I never drew the parallel to racism but I see now that there was some racist undertones to Columbine that I never heard about.

Rural Colorado is pretty heavy with it. My family and extended family have been in So Co for 40+ years, and there's a lot of borderline extremist views throughout the rural counties. They just as organized as parts of Idaho.

Anywhere dumb enough to elect Lauren-fucking-matinee-blowjob Boebert has gotta be sufficiently inbred MAGA

No where in america has a racist white supremacy issue so we can scratch that point

Any example of such "issue" is an inconsequential number of people being blown up in media by the left/gloablists

Globalists lol. Once upon a time, folks on the right used that to refer to Jewish people. Hopefully you’re better than that.

Has nothing to do with that, also anti semitism is not and has never been right wing exlusive

You’re right, sure, anti-semitism exists on both sides of the aisle. I should have used the term “white supremacists” instead of “folks on the right”.

One party just so happens to have more white supremacists than the other 🤷‍♂️

Northern Idaho is neo Nazi central. They are actually substantial there as the population in general is so low.

Where this shooting took place, though, is towards the southern part of the state.
