why? Because they don't trust the vaccine? Kinda intolerant of you
Not to get political here but there are lots of people in the african american community that also are leery of the vaccine as are Orthodox Jews. CNN could film them with the same gotcha questions and made them look silly but that would never happen. This was simply CNN saying look how dumb these Trump voters are.
I remember when Kamala Harris expressed skepticism about the vaccine during the Vice Presidential debate - but of course it was “ok” to feel that way then.
Nobody really takes CNN seriously.
I want to check out Black Mesa State Park sometime soon. I’ve never been to the Oklahoma panhandle, but I’m looking forward to going, INCLUDING maybe a stop in Boise City. I’m sure it will be just fine.
On another Boise City topic, several years ago the news reported about a group of Warren Jeffs' fundamentalist, polygamous Mormon cult moving to Boise City. Jeffs is doing hard time now for child molestation in the context of an underage marriage, although he still tries to control the cult from the calaboose. That crew used to have their home turf in a little community on the UT-AZ border but kind of dispersed after some of the underaged brides quit the cult and talked to reporters and Jeffs got in legal trouble. I found this old article below about the flap. Also, I thought I read somewhere once that another group of them had moved to Clayton to the dismay of some locals there. There have been claims that Jeffs' cult has tried to legally take over town governments in some little towns by moving in and then voting their people into office in low-turnout elections. Does anyone know whether Jeffs' people are now much of a presence in Boise City?

No. Anyway, people have been moving out of Boise City at an alarming rate. In 2010 the population was 1,266. In 2019 it had dropped to 1,085. I don't blame people for leaving. Who wants to live in a town too tiny to have a Wal-Mart? If you stay, you'll be living with a bunch of backward people who strongly opposed Oklahoma having legal medical marijuana and expanded Medicaid. But then for full self closure, I may be spoiled from coming from a town that has two super Wal-Marts plus a neighborhood Wal-Mart and easily approved of legal medical marijuana and more Medicaid, even down to my precinct!

I have been in the far western Oklahoma panhandle before. Besides the rising buttes, driving up the highway to Colorado it was peculiar to see that fences no longer lined the highway. If you love McDonald's, stop at Guymon for that. Guymon is the only town in the panhandle that isn't tiny.
No thanks. That place is so pitifully small that it can't have so much as a Wal-Mart or McDonald's. I'm used to living in a town with two Wal-Marts and two McDonald's and a lot more stuff.
It isn't a real town without two of each, plus a couple of 7 Eleven's.
