Private security dragged out a woman who had been interrupting a Kootenai County Republican Central Committee legislative town hall in Idaho Saturday as Sheriff Robert Norris stood by, spurring a disagreement between the sheriff and Coeur d’Alene’s police chief over the First Amendment implications of the incident.
Multiple video recordings of the incident at Coeur d’Alene High School show Teresa Borrenpohl, who ran for Idaho’s House of Representatives in 2024, 2022 and 2020 as a Democrat, seated in the auditorium as boos and cheers erupt around her.

This is a lawsuit that the taxpayers are going to pay heavily for.
sadly, the Idaho Neo Nazis have it factored into their hate budget, and don’t mind paying, as long as the pain and fear continue
If 30 protesters showed up? How many private security guys did they have? He thinks he’s smart by ordering the private security to do it and avoiding the first amendment. I could be wrong, I guess we’ll have to see.
Forget it Jake, it’s Coeur D’Alene (but seriously i’d love to see a hundreds strong protest show up, i just fear, nay say, know, those fuckin nazis are gonna start shootin, and the sherrifs counts in their number, it’s fuckin rural Idaho man, it’s Nazi country)
Dunno what the downvotes are for. I have never visited Coeur D’Alene, but Idaho has a serious problem with violent white supremacists and most people seem to have no idea.
I’m ok with that.
Judges won’t hear the case
Then more protesters have to show up to support her.
Judges won’t hear the case <period>
The police chief (not the sheriff), doesn’t seem to agree with you. He high-tailed it out of there. lol
There’s a reason for that.
Politics are always scary the closer they are to your hometown.
