FREELAND, Wash. — More than 200 people peacefully protested a small gathering of white supremacist “skinheads” marking the death of a neo-Nazi leader.
Sheriff’s deputies and state troopers watched Saturday as the chanting, sign-carrying demonstrators marched in a parking lot at South Whidbey State Park. The skinheads planned a candlelight vigil marking the Dec. 9, 1984, death of Robert Mathews, founder of the neo-Nazi group The Order.
