I know this Indian lady who went to Aggy.  Said the people were super nice to her.  Overly nice

Feather or Dot?

I’m sure they were.  Howdy

Yeah, not sure why you are being shitty.  I’m just telling my experience as someone who lives there. If that doesn’t jive with what you’ve been told by a friend of a friend, then just accept it as an anecdote.  Or don’t.  I really don’t give a shit.  

lol, you guys really don’t like having your preconceived notions challenged.

Laughing at a post that says “I don’t give a shit” is more tautological than preconceived, hermano. Not posting is the act of not giving a shit.

Pretty thin skinned there.  My story is true.  This Indian lady I know went to Aggy said she never had an issue.  Congrats to you as well

Not sure what the friend of the friend thing even means?

Someone smarter then me has taken this thread off course.

My second thought:  How big of a rack are we talking about on this Indian lady.  Did she have huge... tracts of land?

Most Indian ladies, dot or feather, tend to have small racks

If username isn’t facetious then it does check out. Either way, no regerts.

But where does  friend of a friend come in? I heard straight from a native Boise resident.

That's why they were nice to her, even though she may have been very rude

Tend to?  So you are making an assumption based on tendencies, whereas the exception to those tendencies could help explain the overly kind treatment received from said goathumpers.

Perhaps not so smart after all...

BTW, Boise is 500mi and 7:30 hrs from Sandpoint.

You're going to generalize on 500,000,000+ women?  And how big exactly is your sample size?

Wife just told me that one of the firefighters who died was the father of my daughter’s classmate. Terrible 

CDA is a pretty small community and reveres their first responders.  Many cars bear “K27” stickers in honor of the one and only (afaik) LEO killed in the line of duty.  His kids are being raised by their grandparents I believe and live 2 blocks away from us.

sorry to hear that Lhorn. We’ve dealt with loss like that.

Thanks but my daughter and his daughter didn’t really know each other well.  She got her number from a friend and sent her a text and got a ❤️ response. I guess that’s how people do it these days.

I don't think anybody is "getting their rocks off" but it's pretty important to consider why people would be so fucking crazy to do such a horrible and antisocial thing to go hunting for first responders. 

Yeah who would possibly do such a thing like kill first responders?

Oh, right.

Firemen in some sketchy places have reported being shot at, or so I’ve read now & then over the years. A few folks hate any type of uniform it seems.
Before East Austin was so gentrified, my nephew was a fireman/emt at Station #1, which did a lot of responding east of I-35. 
He said the longtime residents in that area loved the first responders and viewed them as an essential part of their community life. 
His station received a lot of great home-cooked meals & baked goods from their grateful admirers.

Carry on.

Yep, and there have been two little-publicized incidents in the last , idk, 10 years that I know of where AFD crews were assaulted upon arrival. One in NE Austin where a crew was attacked by a man in the front yard of a residence after being called there for an emergency, resulting in serious injuries to at least one FF. Another was downtown, where some homeless folks had been squatting in an abandoned building and starting fires inside the building for cooking and/or for heat. Can't remember what season it was when this happened. Crew was assaulted trying to extinguish one of those fires.

Viggo Mortensen and his brother have homes in Clark Fork and are seen frequently in town.

yes thats right.  My cousin has seen him at gigs.  He (my cousin) plays all over.  The bar Idaho Pour Authority (great name for a bar) is owned by cousins best friend, at least it was as of a year ago or so and they see him in there periodically

Pretty low bar there buddy.

But hey, at least you're not as stupid as me, nttiawwt.
