If you want to be surprised, disappointed and shocked as Ilona S. Gilman was at the Lincoln Day Dinner when Dan Gookin displayed his anger with profanity, then you must see his video on YouTube.

Search YouTube, type in “Kootenai Rants” The Man Child and North Idaho College. Do not click on his video. Instead, scroll down to: https://youtu.be/UyWfihT3iQc and click on it. Gookin must have been advised to do a “friendly version” on his previous vulgar video.

Dan Gookin rants using every vulgar word in the book. I’m surprised this content hasn’t been censored. You would never think that he has a B.A. in communications with his behavior in this sacrilegious speech.

If his goal is to malign Todd Banducci, he has obviously failed with his hateful, offensive, verbally abusive and disrespectful language. Gookin appears to be in need of a psychological anger management program at the very least. He has no control what comes out of his gutter mouth.

It would seem that people who align themselves with Dan Gookin and this type of behavior at North Idaho College may very well be part of the problem.
