Police in Idaho Face Death Threats After Arresting White Supremacists Near Pride Event
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Police officers in Idaho have reportedly received death threats after
arresting 31 members of the white supremacist organization known as the
Patriot Front, who are accused of plotting to start a riot at a gay
pride event in the city of Coeur d'Alene. The white supremacists were
found packed in the back of a U-Haul truck armed with riot gear
including a smoke grenade and shields. On Monday, the Patriot Front
members were released on bail, which was set at $300 per person.
