Idaho Town Taken Over By Armed 'Patriot' Patrols Amid Rumors Antifa Headed There

 

Amid rumors of mass protests and riots in the northwest Idaho city of Coeur dโ€™Alene, some locals weren't having it, and armed themselves to patrol city streets lined with small businesses.

 

It's a trend giving rise to fears that violent armed clashes between different American factions are imminent. Already videos from cities across the nation have depicted counter-demonstrators taking matters into their own hands as police retreat.

 

"Reports and rumors that groups bent on rioting and violence in Coeur dโ€™Alene brought out men and women with guns on Monday determined to stop them if they arrive," local Idaho media reported.

 

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

 

Groups of loosely affiliated 'Proud Boys' and armed 'patriots' began lining the streets of downtown Coeur dโ€™Alene over reports left wing militants and Antifa anarchists were planning to cause mayhem in the area:

 

Soon, more armed men, self-described as a loosely formed group of patriots, arrived. They took up posts at corners on both sides of Sherman Avenue.

 

Later, they were joined by hundreds of citizens packing rifles, semi-automatic weapons, handguns, and bows and arrows.

 

The sidewalks were packed with people walking up and down Sherman Avenue, firearms proudly displayed for all to see.

 

They carried guns, had them holstered around their hips and had them strapped across their backs.
