Of<br>course I understand the importance of learning about history. But…<br>For a courthouse in north Idaho to find it appropriate to display a<br>symbol of traitors MORE prominently than the symbols of this nation we<br>are proud of almost leaves me speechless.<br><br>=======================================================<br> List services made available by First Step Internet,<br> serving the communities of the Palouse since 1994.<br> http://www.fsr.net<br> mailto:Vision2020@moscow.com<br>=======================================================<br></div></body>
