Idaho students chant "Assassinate Obama"

I don't know who the kids are or who their parents are but I was embarrassed and saddened when I heard of this incident. Their are pockets of bigotry everywhere and Rexburg in no different. I think lack of diversity in the area is one problem but this is slowly changing with the growth of BYU-I. Another problem is, and I think mainly affects the rural areas, are the same families have been living in these areas for four or five generations and they don't get out much. Their great-great-great grandparents were bigots and they just keep passing it down. Rexburg is always under a microscope from the rest of the state because of the heavy LDS population so I hate it when things like this happen.

I've only personally known two people who grew up in Rexburg. One served with me in Italy as a missionary and he was a tremendous person. I believe his Dad taught at Ricks. His last name is Roundy and I learned after the mission that he is a distant relative of mine.

The other is the biggest asshole to have ever walked the face of the earth. I'd rather not get into the details, as it is something that has taken years to put behind me.

I really feel like I should read the brief before making a comment, but what the everliving hell.

"Everyone is welcome [in a public school]."
"But the school board is allowed to say that brown hands aren't welcome, and we should enforce their policy."

Like I said, I need to read the brief before I comment much more on the kind of attorney who would write those words.
