Anti-Gay Sign Goes Up in Post Falls

Full post here

Jim Valentine lumps gay people and pedophiles together. And he doesn’t want any of them living in Idaho. The Post Falls business owner posted a message in bold letters on his reader board this morning: “Peds queers fags your (sic) in Idaho now…” That’s what northbound drivers on Pleasantview Road see when they drive past the sign for his landscape supply and horse-boarding business, Dixie Services. “Don’t fruit with Idaho kill yo-yo boy” is the message greeting southbound drivers — Taryn Brodwater/Spokesman-Review.

Tony Stewart , Kootenai County Task Force on Human Relations: “It sends a message of hate directed at an entire group of people. It’s stereotyping an entire population. It’s so unfortunate when that happens.”
