Something I've yet to see mentioned in the news about the bomb in Spokane |
|
Spokane is about 30 miles west of Coeur d'Alene Idaho - a place notorious for right wing militia groups & white supremacist groups. Seems like an obvious starting place for FBI investigations.

1. Respectfully, for it is unfair to most of Idaho |

...but it probably isn't mentioned for the same reason it's not always pointed out that they make cars in Detroit.

3. I wasn't implying that the whole state is full of racists. |

you think it's not being mentioned because it's too obvious? I'm not sure I understand the Detroit comparison, in contrast to your first thought in that sentence.
(edited for clarity - hopefully)

4. No, I didn't think you were, and yes, almost too obvious to mention. |
|
It's unfair to most Idahoans that it's so well-known as a petri dish for militia. :hi:

2. The local news in Portland mentioned Spokane as having a |
|
large number of right wing militia and white supremacists. They also mentioned Idaho.
