Agrees with commissioners |

To the Editor;
My name is Kirk Dixon. With this posting, I do
not speak for my wife, Devonna Dixon.
I am a refugee. I grew up within the United
States of America. I grew up in the middle of
the United States of America, in Iowa. I moved
to California in the late-early 70's and spent
approximately 13-14 years there. I learned the
true meaning of "political correctness."
To some people there, I was an import. After
years of depression, the good point was meeting
Devonna.
I understand others' opinion on this issue of
refugees. Just think about it. Who helped create
combat in Iraq and Afghanistan? Are you on a no-
fly list?
Here in Bonners Ferry, other than Dish and
Direct TV, where is our information coming from?
The translator only gives what it is allowed
(due to regulations. Check out my sign in front
of our house). This is our country and county
and community.
Back to the refugee statement. I agree with the
commissioners. Think about it, I grew up in
Iowa. Left Iowa for California for misunderstood
reasons. Got here in Boundary County in
1993--for a reason.
We respect and love this community. We do not
have children.(We've thought about it, children,
then kids, dependents, now?). Times have changed
since we were back then. We all
have to look at it for what it IS, (weird isn't
it).
This is a gem-in-the-rough community.
