Coeur d'Alene police receive death threats for arresting Patriot Front members
2022-06-14
[Idaho Statesman] Idaho made international headlines over the weekend when 31 masked members of a white nationalist group were arrested in Coeur d’Alene. The city’s mayor and police chief updated the public through a news conference on Monday.

After a call from a citizen warning he had seen men “looking like a little army,” police found the members of the Patriot Front inside of a U-Haul truck during a traffic stop Saturday, according to The Spokesman-Review. They were arrested on suspicion of conspiring to riot at the North Idaho city’s Pride in the Park event.

Coeur d’Alene Police Chief Lee White provided a handful of new details at the conference, including that the riot was planned to take place on Sherman Avenue. The U-Haul was found to contain riot gear and at least one smoke grenade.

#18^
started running the names thru some search "White/Gray Hat" tools I have.

Some interesting data pops up.
a few Name shows Utah but former addresses show interesting I-95 exit locations in VA for several.

So far initial data shows a number registered to vote back in March 2020.

1 (so far) is registered to vote in 2 states (Washtenaw County, Michigan and Seattle Wa.)

#24  Ref #21 above

A quote from the Occupy WallStreet 2019 website:

"Occupy Wall Street is a leaderless resistance movement with people of many colors, genders and political persuasions. The one thing we all have in common is that We Are The 99% that will no longer tolerate the greed and corruption of the 1%. We are using the revolutionary Arab Spring tactic to achieve our ends and encourage the use of nonviolence to maximize the safety of all participants.

the only solution is WorldRevolution
Click here for a list of actions, meetings, assemblies in New York."

Agent Provacateurs like Epps and Rousseau need a deep look when we have an honest LE investigation into all the community organizing that has infected our federal government.

#21  Thomas Ryan Rousseau, formerly of Occupy Wallstreet, formerly of Charlottesville white supremacist rally, now with Patriot Front. Funny how this same guy keeps popping up wherever there is major civil unrest... and just never seems to get in Dutch with LE, much like Epps. Great gig if you can get it.

#18  The purported names of the arrestees were published, see below. Note only one from Idaho, and for those not familiar, Idaho Falls is in the opposite corner of the state. So why did all these guys show up at some queer alphabet show in a smallish, fairly remote town? Yeah, it stinks of narrative and battlespace preparation.

#16  Curious location given the history of the area. Hayden Lake is a suburb of CDA and has a history deeply embedded in the FBI memory. More than any place in the US, locals have a sensitivity to the whole idea of "White Supremacy". Almost like the spot was selected to tap into that for the media to discover that in the memory hole. If this was a planned "event" it fits the location.

#15  ^Bingo. All out of state - so they came in a UHaul, can't have those feeb assets getting ID'd through their license plates. Likewise with LE letting their assets keep their masks on. They really do look like they're prepping the battlefield for what comes next, and that will need be something very, very ugly if they intend to maintain power through "fighting white supremacy".

Given some of the comments on how stupid it was done, one could surmise Biden himself planned this "Staged" mass arrest event.
Posted by: NN2N1   2022-06-14 13:06  

#13  The left/feds are working up to some kind of false flag incident before the election. Notice nobody knows who the 31 were since it sure looks like none got booked.

If the right decided to go kinetic, I'd expect either targeted assassination of elected democrats or stuff like every DC or NYC power substation being sabotaged overnight

#12  When 33 guys show up from 12 different states to pile into a U-Haul wearing matching outfits to go riot at a local gay event, there needs to be some kind of introspection about the taboo manly chemistry that is bubbling just below the surface in all their minds.

#11  There is so much wrong with this whole situation. I love how these violent terrorists sit orderly waiting to be arrested while keeping their masks on. That's not how this works. Add to that the fake Proud Boys incident in SF over the weekend and we see a pattern emerging.

#10  If they'd taken over a school, the cops would still be having meetings about what to do.

#7  #6 Besoeker ^

We are both old enough to remember when 4 black guys in a car in an All White neighborhood got them pulled over.

But thank GOD we are way past those days.

It wasn't right then, and the same goes for these yahoo's.

Having just now read over the PF website.
When compared to BLM/AF, the PF is just the polar opposite in agenda, far more talk and little if any Riot/Looting history for results.

You mean like.....'driving while being black?'

Explain the legality of
"They were arrested on suspicion of conspiring to riot..."

So I check the legal code for Idaho, there is no law on the books for arresting a person on possible "future thought acts".

Detain for questioning, yes.

But arresting must meet certain legal steps.
IDAHO LAW Sec. 19-603

Hell, as much as I despise the BLM, I'd still have the same legal issue for arrest on suspicion.

Because we have to protect rights of all, and not become a Liberal Socialist Demon-crats by doing it selectively.

#2  Why does this whole episode seem to be some form of theater?

A bunch of geared-up guys tucked in a U-Haul (you know, like a big orange troop carrier)? 10-15 SUVs or pickup trucks would fit better into the normal area traffic (w/ GMRS or CB coordination), and could find a place to park easier.

'Death Threats' to officials (which seems more like what the left does, especially teacher's union and antifart folks)? Did somebody's Mom call and say 'God will punish you' (to which our very thin-skinned recipients suffered the vapors)?

#1  Hat tip to the CDA police department and FBI advisors who......'nipped it in the bud' before it became.... 'legal' rioting.
