When asked if discrimination existed in Idaho, conservative Sen. Dan Foreman said no.

Democratic candidate for House Seat A and member of the Nez Perce tribe Trish Carter-Goodheart said she pushed back on that idea when it was her turn to speak

[J]ust because someone hasn’t personally experienced discrimination, doesn’t mean it’s not happening. Racism and discrimination are real issues here in Idaho, as anyone familiar with our state’s history knows,” the statement read. “I highlighted our weak hate crime laws and mentioned the presence of the Aryan Nations in northern Idaho as undeniable evidence of this reality.

That's when Sen. Foreman lost all control. His words to me: "I'm sick and tired of this liberal bullshit! Why don't you go back to where you came from?!"

P1: There is no racism!

P2: Yes there is.. look at the facts.

P1: (Proceeds to spew racist crap and storm off.)

Proving her point with his actions.
