Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire This is in red Idaho

I grew up in Washington state and moved to Texas once the liberals ruined that once beautiful area. Texas is now fighting tooth and nail to maintain their culture and defend against this spreading cancer of liberalism. I hope this State can stand firm.

In addition, Boise Mayor Lauren McLean, is anti-Second Amendment. She accepted big $$$$ in her mayoral campaign from NYC mega-billionaire Michael Bloomberg, who hates the Second Amendment and honest gun owners.

McLean's political ideology mirrors Marxist Socialist ideology in its "finer points." (She has not of yet suggested gulags for her "political dissidents." Maybe in the future???)

The problem with Boise is that Boise State University is here and the "kids" are so gullible and easily manipulated by their far left Socialist professors, they vote en masse for whomever their "masters" tell them to vote.

Also, there are a lot of high tech companies here who employ "techies" who are, by and large, left wing nerds, so they too vote for the leftist politicians. Between the "kids" and the "techie nerds," they can easily sway a local election.

That's the way it is in Boise, Idaho. More's the pity.

Non-partisan elections are just another tool / smokescreen of the leftists.

Very common here. You have to be very diligent and dig deep into their past to expose their commie roots.

They do their very best to disguise or hide it.

Yes by the millions if what we read is correct, but for the most part they are not the folks moving out of CA bringing their influences with them

Not illusion...fact

Boise was decidedly for Hillary in 2016...

keeerist, did i read 100 mil for a library? who the hell uses a library anymore. you could slap up a pole bldg for 100k and spend another few hundred on books and computers and call it good. 100 fuggen mil. ridiculous. somebodies brother in law was going to make some bank on that boondoggle.

That $100,000,000.00 library was another one of Mayor Bieter's Boondoggles. He also had come up with a boondoggle of installing rapid transit rail system in downtown Boise for about 25 blocks and I can't remember how many millions of $$$.

He liked his name on things. You know, posterity and all that good stuff.

Idaho falls mayor had a Bernie bumper sticker on her Subaru but ran as a Republican. The libs know they need to lie and act conservative to get elected here and the people are too politically ignorant to notice.

I graduated from BSU in 2000 and the liberal professors were there at that time doing everything thing they could to indoctrinate us. I had little interest in politics before then but after seeing through their efforts I became much more politically aware and against most everything left.

Just like California. There were 2 democrats running for mayor of Boise. Truth of the matter is most of the democrat politicians are bought and paid for by various land developers and contractors. They build off the back of honest citizens, who have to carry cost road development, extension of electrical, water, and sewer. Typically that's on the back of the developer and the development carries the burden of that cost. The Boise mayor is a clueless socialist who thinks the can live and govern on other peoples money. It's pathetic. The reason I absolutely will not live in Boise proper.

I have very few regrets in life.

I was offered a very nice position in Boise 15-16 years ago. Tried to convince the wife to get on a plane and go to look. She said no way.

I think about that opportunity often and how my life may be different if we'd gone.

Sounds like maybe I'm not missing much.

What Boise needs, transportationwise, is a fast way to move north and south. They've concentrated on east and west. Eagle Rd has to be the biggest rush hour disaster I've driven on.
I left Boise in '70 and hope I never have to move back.

If there is a way to do things wrong Ada County Highway District can find it

Yep. Best to look at your own educational system and your esteemed folks who have lived there and just, well, you know, like leftist chit. They're right there amongst you.

ID suffers from the same thing that killed off my native CO and that is a huge influx of displaced idiots from CA. They leave CA for other states and then turn those states into CA.

Who knew Idaho was so full of VICTIMS?

Boise, where you can be stuck in traffic and they're baling hay along the same Freeway. (maybe it was Meridian)
