    Spoken by a protester…

    “ They come to Home Depot because that’s where they know the undocumented immigrants are. We are  just here trying to live and work. We come here in peace (by blowing up trucks to show them). We deserve to be here.”

    Sounds like demo speak for “we are knowingly breaking the law.”


    great way to garner independent support.

    Do you think it’s an invasion?

    Facts: 
    - Governor Gavin Newsom and Mayor Karen Bass both publicly stated they did not request National Guard assistance.
    - Under normal circumstances, National Guard deployment requires state approval unless the Insurrection Act is invoked, which Trump has not done.
    - The Department of Homeland Security claimed “about 1,000 rioters” were involved. Reuters explicitly stated: “That number could not be independently verified.”
    - No arrests, property damage, or injuries matched the scale of that claim in public records or independent media.
    - LAPD and local sheriffs reported protests were largely peaceful, especially during the day before Trump escalation. 
    - Some tensions flared in Paramount and downtown LA, but no reports of organized looting or widespread property destruction emerged.
    - Reporters on the ground, including from LAist, KPCC, and Reuters, reported being tear-gassed or pushed back despite clearly identifying themselves.
    - Multiple journalists were caught on camera saying “We’re press!” as flash-bangs or tear gas were deployed nearby.
    - Video footage and timeline analysis show a flash-bang grenade thrown into debris shortly before a car caught fire. 
    - No evidence has emerged that protesters intentionally started that fire.
    - Video footage reviewed by The Guardian and Washington Post showed flash-bangs, tear gas, and rubber bullets deployed against protesters without clear provocation.
    - Protesters were often seen dispersing or shielding themselves, not advancing aggressively.
    - Trump placed the National Guard under federal control (Title 10), bypassing state authority a rare and provocative move that violates the Tenth Amendment unless the Insurrection Act is formally invoked.

    Don’t call them “looters.” They’re undocumented shoppers.

    Thank you for posting these facts.  They can all be verified without little effort.  
    Sure, there are always going to be some in every crowd who will turn to violence (including those who are doing so to make the peaceful protesters look bad).  But most protesters are doing what is allowed in a democracy and are non-violent.  I'm glad to know most people here understand that.  (The few who don't understand that or deny it are off my radar, so I don't care about them.)

    And the president, who makes actual decisions, said it’s an invasion, and an insurrection, and an occupation.
