A white supremacist group - which has told the Daily News it prefers to be called separatists - felt it necessary about two weeks ago to warn Idahoans about "white genocide" and the impending onslaught of "non-whites" on their way to Idaho.

The group, American Freedom Party, used the state's voter registration rolls to initiate a statewide robocall campaign Aug. 1. In addition to spewing its hateful message, the group was also seeking support for its 2016 presidential candidate, Bob Whitaker. According to his profile on the group's website, Whitaker was a Reagan Administration appointee before he went on to write three books, including "The Mantra," which he describes as a strategy to fight white genocide.

The AFP targeted Idaho in part due to recent comments by Boise Mayor David Bieter, a politician the group has labeled as "anti-white." In welcoming Syrian refuges to the Gem State, Bieter wrote in a blog post that "Diversity isn't a buzz word. It's our birthright."

Such comments infuriated the AFP, which replied that "diversity is a code word for white genocide."

"The fact that anti-whites are now targeting even Idaho for forced assimilation leaves no doubt that the plan is to eliminate ALL white areas and eventually ALL white people," the group wrote on its website.

Thankfully, most Idahoans are disgusted by the views of the AFP and will warmly welcome people of all races and colors into Idaho.

Not long ago, most people associated Idaho with white supremacists, thanks to members of the Aryan Nations who set up their base north of Coeur d'Alene. Fortunately, the Aryan Nations and their hate were expelled from Idaho nearly two decades ago and that stigma has slowly been shed.

We know we can speak for all Idahoans when we say their kind is definitely not welcome back. The Syrians, however, can come on in.
