Press conference from the police yesterday....
Chief says they had received information that groups were planning to "disrupt" the heathen Pride event.
Evidence that they were planning to riot was the shields, shin guards, "other stuff" and paperwork.
No details provided about the "paperwork" or communications the group had. Chief simply states it appeared similar to an Operations Plan police of military might use.
The operation was launched simply based upon a phone call from a concerned citizen who saw a bunch of people climbing into the back of a U-Haul. There was no tip off from the Feds.
Oooooh, "they were all wearing hats that had plastic inside them."
The patriots cooperated with law enforcement.
There were plenty of "people [not these peaceful Patriot Front guys] walking around the event with long guns and bear spray. None of that is illegal in Idaho," said Chief White.
Chief White says, "They looked like a little army."
Sounds to me like the authorities have denied these patriots their constitutional right to peaceably assemble.
