The group of the unhoused community occupying the old Ada County Courthouse lawn has gained attention from the community and not all of it has been supportive.
In response to the occupation, a local group called the Idaho Liberty Dogs has planned a rally on Saturday at 1 p.m. in opposition of tent cities, Boise Mutual Aid, and the Black Lives Matter movement.
The Idaho Liberty Dogs are also calling for the recall of Boise Mayor Lauren McLean.
The Idaho Press reports, in response to the planned rally, the group of unhoused protesters are planning a potluck to start around 11 a.m. on Saturday.
They are hoping members of the community will show support by sharing a meal and listening to their experiences.
