Visitors: Where's Cd'A we used to know? (Coeur d'Alene, ID)
Coeur d'Alene Press ^ | September 3, 2020 | Phyllis and John Hysong

Posted on 09/03/2020 8:33:50 AM PDT by ProtectOurFreedom

We just wanted to take the time to provide your community with some feedback, as tourists and visitors who have loved coming to visit Coeur d'Alene (CDA) in the past. This visit we have had a very different experience. We hope you will take our observations as constructive, with the intent of helping you to understand what visitors like us may be observing and feeling.

My husband and I are from Arizona and have been driving up the coast of California, Oregon and Washington, doing our best to socially distance while enjoying the beauty of nature. Our experience has been positive in about nine out of 10 places we have visited. Cities and stores have been diligent in keeping us safe with mask requirements and social distancing ordinances. The majority of people in the towns we have visited were considerate and observed the mask and social distancing mandates.

We are now in CDA and have been shocked with the lack of regard for our health and the health of others from both the people living here and the businesses we have visited. At the Harvest Foods we were one of the only people wearing masks, even though the sign out front said to please wear a mask when entering.

...we now have a whole different view of CDA than we did in our past visits, and will be leaving town earlier than planned and probably never return. When we think of CDA, instead of picturing your beautiful lake and the cute town, we will now be picturing a town with a disregard for safety and human life.

Thanks for taking the time to read about our experience and how your town's decisions, or non-decisions, may affect tourism — both now and in the future.

and during the AIDS out break Karen and her husband went to the Chicago bath houses. You should read the scathing letter she sent to the editor of the Chicago newspaper.

See Post 19. I shoulda known.

Thought I remembered the name from somewhere.

They aren’t “Arizonans”. Just unwanted transplants. And as far as worrying about spreading C19, they don’t care. They’re better and more important than the rest of us, you know? Because they wear all the right props, spout all the right nonsense.

It took some work to make and confirm the connections. I smelled a snake, so I dug in.

There's a win for CDA.

Yep. I feel sorry for her husband. Can you imagine the conversation in the car along the way?

Because she’s a leftist. Leftists seek to control.

.....”At the Harvest Foods we were one of the only people wearing masks, even though the sign out front said to please wear a mask when entering.” Masks are useless...these face diapers are only a symbol of oppression...you better wear a mask or else...!! never mind the science ...as Tucker Carlson loves to say, “Just shut up and obey...!!” yes, please...stay in Arizona where you currently have one left-wing U.S. Senator and, sadly, probably a second one come November..!!

I think she wants to be controlled by them and thinks we should be also.

It is truly a form of faith as many people have said. It is a religious belief that salvation can come from “man” or government.

They bend the knee to humanism

I haven't been to Idaho yet, but I like what I've been hearing about it -- lots of conservatives. Maybe hubby and I should move to Idaho instead of SC or GA? I would miss the ocean a LOT though.

Does anyone know how bad the winters are in Coeur d'Alene?
