Another thing to mention for people who don't live in LA. Most of LA is very chill and peaceful right now. There's a huge Pride fest going on, countless farmer's markets, tourists walking around, families at the parks, people walking their dogs. It's a big place.

The very first thing -- Los Angeles is and will always be a great American city, the sister to New York that ties the country together. This is true whether Simp likes it or not.

Mr. Authoritarian President, why weren’t you as interested in upholding “very strong law and order” during the insurrection on the Nation’s Capital as you are now in LA? Was your inaction then a result of your having incited the insurrection? #WeMustImpeachTrump!

"In our federal system, the National Gov. possesses only limited powers; the States and the people retain the remainder. The States have broad authority to enact legislation for the public good—what we have often called a 'police power.' The Fed. Gov., by contrast, has no such authority."-SCOTUS '14

there's almost 40 million users here, from a wide variety of cultures and backgrounds. if you can't find diverse opinions here, you're either not looking hard enough, or you're just talking about something else -- like maybe your own particular views not being as popular as you'd like.

Everyone should say it: The thing about Stephen Miller is not that he is the brains behind Trumpism. Yes, he is one of the people who conceptualizes the impulses of the Trumpist movement and translates them into policy. But that's not what's interesting about Miller. It's not brains. It's bile.

Polite request to please credit the photographers whose L.A. photos you’re sharing. They’re out there risking getting their shins exploded by police munitions to get those shots.

As a former L.A. resident, I have this to say -- you get exactly and only one chance to underestimate the people of Los Angeles. Every lesson after that comes the hard way. ICE can back off now, or learn those lessons.

I notice people calling what we’re seeing these last couple of days “riots.” I was here during the 1992 Los Angeles riots. That’s not what this is. Local police can handle this, but ICE needs to back off—especially with these amateur hires who don’t know what the f*ck they’re doing.

Resign from ICE. Unless you signed-up to be a stormtrooper fighting against your fellow Americans. Just resign. And be on the right side of history.

Everything that’s happened over the past six months has been a response to an imaginary crisis. There is no immigrant invasion. No trade crisis. No scientific or governance crisis. Just people completely high off their own supply trying to fundamentally reorder society. None of this had to happen.

Not the biggest point. But what are they even doing here? Where is this? They're battling over a highway? Even from the perspective of aggressive and even brutal crowd control this is not how you do it. The obvious point that basically they're just trying to gin up these confrontations.

Booker: "We have a president who did nothing as people stormed our Capitol, & then when those people who viciously beat police & led to some of their deaths - therefore cop killers - were convicted, he pardoned them. So for him to be talking about responsive law enforcement is hypocritical at best"

1/ If accurate, this is almost certainly a conflict with the Posse Comitatus Act, which prohibits the use of the military for domestic law enforcement, including the National Guard if they are federalized.

In America this is called "accountability" and it's what keeps law enforcement in check. So yes, we will put their names and faces online when they do Nazi things because THOSE THINGS ARE ILLEGAL.
