"it's not peaceful for people to be on the highway" -LA Mayor Karen Bass right now. This is what I mean when I say the word "peaceful" as applied to protesters is about prescribing placidity, not nonviolence. Calmly marching on a freeway is pretty inarguably nonviolent. " Peaceful" you can debate

"specifically telling press to leave the area" is a phrase that makes my stomach hurt. in an age where every protester has their own camera, it's futile, but they don't want us to see what happens next.

Important thing to beat people over the head with: Trump has turned American cities into warzones and for fucking what? Prices are way up, jobs will be way down, the dollar is worth less, and now the highway is blocked off by cops. Maybe the Great Mythical Immigrant wasn’t the problem after all.

Back when I was more of a little internet shithead, I used to infiltrate private forums for LEOs and first-responders, and my overwhelming takeaway was that cops, and to a lesser degree EMTs (the cops of medicine) are some of the biggest crybabies on the planet. Not being respected KILLS them.

Some Republicans have drawn parallels between President Trump’s dispatching of National Guard troops to Los Angeles on Saturday and what happened in 1992, when soldiers and Marines were sent to the Los Angeles area to restore order after the Rodney King riots. But that was a far different situation.

These militarist ICE raids are the actual government oppression that right wingers dreamed was happening during Covid. They are not up in arms like they were about masking, go figure.

The California National Guard just tear-gassed and fired impact munitions at reporters, children, and community leaders. Multiple injuries. National Guard has now declared an "unlawful assembly" on the streets. Not clear whether NG has legal authority to enforce that far away from federal buildings.

A separate protest at Los Angeles City Hall is now taking place. LAPD reporting crowd size of 1500-2000 people. This is a different part of DTLA than the federal detention center. Separate protests.

One of the reasons I think “defund the police” is a great slogan is that you get to repeatedly tell people that studies show that police don’t actually solve murders, and in fact one-third of stranger-murders are committed by police.

ICYMI — ICE DIRECTOR: “These are real people with real families you’re hurting.” He says this not about immigrants… but about ICE agents. A record-setting lack of self-awareness.

Should be resoundingly apparent by now based on the thousands of examples that there is no form of protest that is peaceful enough that it won’t be met with state violence & that was the case when terms like Law & Order maintained a veneer of integrity despite always being authoritarian dog whistles

California National Guard troops have arrived at the federal detention center in downtown Los Angeles. This is pure theater. It will never stop Angelenos from protesting ICE kidnappings occurring throughout the vast, 4,000-square mile area of Greater Los Angeles.

Acting Director of ICE Tom Homan is threatening to call out the National Guard to Los Angeles — which he lacks the authority to do — for a couple of relatively small protests. I don't find this threat credible at all.

Don’t play into this dude’s game. You will never, ever oppose fascism in the perfectly appropriate way to please him. This is the same guy who made fun of pro-choice protesters because he thought they were overreacting since Roe would obviously never be overturned.

mass protest is not the right way to oppose fascism. the right way to oppose fascism is to shake your head and say “no thank you” whenever a fascist offers you some fascism

Don't wear goggles to a protest unless they're rated shatter resistant. You're better off with NO eye protection than eyewear that will send shards of plastic into your eye. If you can't find shatterproof goggles, get lacrosse goggles. Cheap and effective eye protection from larger munitions.
