#1 Before we wax poetic about these guys know that the major White Supremcist city in the NorthWest is in Athol (always laugh at that) Idaho just north of Coeur D'Alene and it is possible these guys are from that group. I hope not, I'm sure Idaho has a lot of Patriots, just saying.

#2 Dan Carson was patrolling Sherman Avenue with an AR-12 semi-automatic 12-gauge across his chest, an AR-15 strapped to his back, two 9mm handguns holstered and a .38 special, too.

#3 Dan was a walking arms room. Lots of stuff on his back and hip, nothing in his head.

So called "Open Carry" is a recipe for disaster. There, I said it.

All he's missing is a bullet-proof tuxedo, dog named Daisy, and some rad techno.

#5 Not so sure 'bout the White Supremecist angle here - seems they were looking to keep both fringe elements from coming in. Antifa has been launcing forays into areas where they are not known to congregate. A handful of Antifa rolled into Yucaipa, CA and got trounced by the locals

#6 we like guns here in Idaho, just sayin'

#7 All comes down to who's doing the labelling. I've been to some very backwoods places and never yet had anyone say to me "I'm Bob and I'm a white supremacist," and then reach for the secret handshake.

#8 Of course, nowadays, if you are not kneeling, you are a white supremacist.

#9 When I lived in Spokane (mid 90s), just across the border from Coeur D'Alene the folks up in Athol that I'm talking made it very clear they were White Supremacists with marches and showing up at other peoples marches. Most were somewhat proud of their stance, but that doesn't mean they haven't learned to tone it down.

#10 .38 Special - I love that band!

#11 Carrying that much weaponry might make it a problem to actually use it effectively.

Not much capacity for spare ammo, either.

#14 It amazes me that at a town where lots of people carrying weapons did not kill, maim, or wound anyone, are still called names and finger wagged by a bunch on this site.

#15 I respect everyone's right to go armed. I don't care what they believe. If they are disciplined in their actions I know I have nothing to worry about.

#16 Got a 50 yo s&w highway patrolman. Always use 357 mag rounds for ammo. Even shot a black bear with it.

#18 357 mag

I'm a .44 Mag guy, but I have one of those, and a Coonan 1911 .357 Mag too.

#19 OK, Spirit Lake is home. My family is from there and you will find that the area is now a tourist trap. With that said, Butler and his church are no longer in existence, since his death. You will still find white separatists here. For the most part its gone. What you will find is a community that will fight and defend their right to be there, even though we don't agree with them. We also defend and support the Hoodoo valley hobos and the Sandpoint hippies. The panhandle is very constitutionally oriented and we do not put up with the idiots arriving in CDA and trying to implement their bigoted beliefs. We have a horrible history of the CA people arriving and wanting to change things into CA. We also have nothing but bad history with the feds, FBI in particular. Ruby ridge was a horrible event that the FBI murdered a woman with a baby in her arms and a young boy. There is no love for the fed there. If some protester will come to CDA and do anything you will find their bodies in the locs at post falls....

#20 The absolute truth is, any anarchist or antifa miscreant shows up in your town, they need to disappear. Quietly. Forever. Without a trace. Instead of a splashy hyperventilating new report of their death in tomorrows media, they should at best get a stupid 5 page article in the Atlantic or New Yorker five years from now about how they just disappeared and nobody knows a thing about it.

The respectable conservatives have done nothing to stop Antifa etc.

People will eventually turn to less respectable quarters for protection for themselves and their families.

And the respectable conservatives will have no one to blame but themselves if that happens.

If Weimar had had an effective, credible conservative opposition, Hitler would not have happened.

#22 Mrs. Warthog and I live in Eagle, ID. A nice suburb of Boise. Dan might be a walking gun shop but maybe the sight will be enough to persuade the
Antifa a$$holes to not show up. Somehow doubt that however.

We love our guns in ID and our Constitution. I'll take these guys any day over the "Do Nothing" RINOS. We're a very polite sort here in Idaho..until you directly threaten our family or town.

We had a peaceful memorial - not even a protest -in Boise last night. Idiots mess with Idaho.

Besoeker - we already have a disaster. Could an innocent get hurt? Absolutely..Right now we're all getting hurt

#23 /\ Spent a little time at Gowan Field around 100 years or so ago. Beautiful country, friendly people. Back then anyway.

#24 ^^ Greetings to the Warthogs from a fellow Eagle-ite. We are polite here, but very well armed. Might I guess you for former USAF from the moniker?

#25 If Weimar had had an effective, credible conservative opposition, Hitler would not have happened.

They did: the German National People's Party, or DNVP. It was totally outmaneuvered in every way by the National Socialists, then absorbed. (It's always easy to forget that Hitler was a skilled politician in a very modern sense.)

#26 If the brutal conditions of the Treaty of Versailles had never been imposed, Hitler probably would have still been in Vienna doing water colors.
