The billboard said, “BLACK AND BROWN FOLKS BUILT THIS COUNTRY (AND WE’RE DOING IT AGAIN) JOIN US OR GET OUT OF THE WAY!” DON’T JUDGE BY THE COLOR OF THEIR SKIN, BUT BY THE CONTENT OF THEIR CHARACTER”. …”DON’T CALL ME BROWN!” I’m LATINA and I have been living in Idaho for 10 years. Personally, I feel very disappointed with the offensive and racist statement on the Billboard. The statement incites criminal activity. Generalizing and claiming that we the Latino and African-American community will become violent and going against the city, the people and police who don’t share that message. Don’t try to fool us and PUT US AGAINST ONE ANOTHER. Companies should support messages that bring people together and create a peaceful atmosphere. Please, don’t try to pollute this beautiful State and City. I love this country as much as my country of origin PERU. I’m 100% believer if you want to succeed you need to work hard to reach your goals. This is a free country with a lot of opportunities for everyone who desire to get ahead. Coming from a third world country, let me educate you; there are no excuses here in the USA to be poor or play the role of the victim. WE ALL BUILT IT and continue. EVERYONE has the opportunity and liberty to become an entrepreneur or work for others. A company doesn’t operate without CEO’s and WORKERS. This is a TEAM EFFORT where everyone puts in place their skills, work ethic and POWERFUL desires to build a better world/country. So it’s important to be GRATEFUL for the freedoms and opportunities that we have. Focus on positivity and the good around you. Defunding the POLICE and their resources is unsafe. I believe that most of the Police are good people, who put their lives on the line to protect us daily. This remind me back decades ago 1980’s when the police and armed forces in Peru protected us from a terrorist group. That Communist Party of Peru (PCP) sowed chaos, misery and death into the people lives who didn’t want to share their ideologies. Properties were destroyed and businesses were consumed in fire. The people with low incomes were by far the most affected. After analyzing and compare the political parties here and in Peru, I believe firmly that the party who uses words like, victim and racism lack new ideas and want to create only violence and fear. This is a way how they want to manipulate and control us. They don’t care about the people. They only care about POWER. GOD BLESS US EVERYONE!
