Yes, it's true. We have extremists in North Idaho. The extremist Jessica Bryan teaches English at North Idaho College in Coeur d'Alene. Here is what she is alleged to have said on the first day of class:

...Bryan said on the first day of class that "George Bush was elected president because people in this country can't read" and said Feb. 12 that "I believe in the death penalty … . First we line up everyone who can't think and right behind them, anyone who's ever voted Republican."

As former Lewiston Tribune editor Bill Hall once said about extremists in Idaho, "Just because you are tolerated doesn't mean we're glad you came."
