A bipartisan forum in a small Latah County community took a turn when Republican Senate incumbent Dan Foreman stormed out of the event, following a racist outburst directed at a Native American candidate.
On Tuesday, local Democrat and Republican representatives organized a “Meet your candidates” forum in the northern Idaho town of Kendrick.
…
In a statement released Wednesday, Democratic candidate for House Seat A and member of the Nez Perce tribe Trish Carter-Goodheart said she pushed back on that idea that discrimination existed in Idaho when it was her turn to speak, pointing to her own experience and the history of white supremacy groups in Northern Idaho.

Foreman stood up and angrily interjected, using an expletive to criticize what he cast as the liberal bent of the response, according to the release and people present at the forum.
Carter-Goodheart said he then told her she should go back to where she came from, and heatedly stormed off. One event organizer and two other panelists confirmed Carter-Goodheart’s account, adding Foreman appeared very agitated.
He got pissed off because she mentioned the Aryan Nations. I’m guessing he doesn’t want too much scrutiny on the subject, for some reason. It’s a shame his actions backfired because it’s all but guaranteed that there’s now someone interested in finding out his connection to AN.
Triggered fragile snowflake.
Go back where she came from? She should have snarkily said, “oh, okay,” then made to leave only to stay exactly where she was.
I have edited this post down heavily, as I can go (and have gone) on tirades when I see stories like this that deeply upset and anger me, and it always seems to bring out the worst in me. But long story short, I don’t consider racists like this man to be human. Fuck them.
To all you overt, unapolagetic racists out there, just fucking die already. Nobody will miss you when you’re gone. Do you understand? No one.
“Go back where you came from!”
Ok, then give me your house keys, asshole
“No you.”
According to Wikipedia, Dan Foreman was born in Lake Forest, Illinois. Fucking immigrant. I say we ride him out of the state on a rail.
