Members of the group were dressed similarly in khaki pants and blue shirts and were wearing hats with plastic inside them, according to the chief and video from the scene of the arrest. All 31 men have posted bond and were released from custody, per the Kootenai County Sheriff's Office. They will be due back in court at a later date. All 31 individuals were charged with conspiracy to riot, which is a misdemeanor, he said. The event was held at the Coeur d'Alene City Park Saturday and included a Pride walk and performances by local musicians, dancers and drag artists. "It is clear to us based on the gear that the individuals had with them, the stuff they had in their possession, and the U-Haul with them along with paperwork that was seized from them, that they came to riot downtown," White said. At least one of those arrested is from Idaho, investigators said.

Still, it isn’t surprising, given how anti-LGBTQ rhetoric has increasingly become a potent rallying cry in the far-right online ecosystem, Lewis said. He said Patriot Front did not have a reputation for violence and that the case could be a First Amendment issue. Michael Kielty, Wagner’s attorney, said Sunday that he had not been provided information about the charges. “Whenever we are confronted with attacks of hate, we must respond with the message from the community that we embrace all people with all of our differences,” McCrostie said in a text message. “That set of grievances fits into their broader narratives and shows their ability to mobilize the same folks against the enemy over and over and over again,” he said. No attorney was immediately listed for him and phone numbers associated with him went unanswered Sunday.

Members of the Patriot Front were allegedly planning to disrupt a pride parade in Coeur d'Alene, Idaho.

White said Coeur d’Alene Police were aware of multiple groups' plans to counter-protest the festival and worked with other organizations such as the FBI in preparation for policing the event. A recent leak, however, showed that behind the scenes the group embraces neo-Nazism as well as shaming members for their porn and junk food habits. Video taken by Krem 2 News Channel shows police opening up the back of the U-Haul to show the Patriot Front members crammed closely inside with their hands already up in the air. Patriot Front members generally attempt to remain anonymous as not to be publically connected to their beliefs. According to public documents, the 31 Patriot Front members were charged with Criminal Conspiracy and held on a $300 bond. The men were all members of Patriot Front, one of America’s most infamous white nationalist organizations, and they were quickly detained.
