Demonstrators protesting the United States Supreme Court’s decision to overturn Roe v. Wade began to gather in various parts of Los Angeles for the third straight day Sunday.
According to the Los Angeles Police Department, a small group of people began to gather Sunday afternoon in downtown where protesters had clashed with police just days earlier on Friday evening.
The group of demonstrators was small and not affecting any traffic as of 2:15 p.m., LAPD said in a tweet.
Police officials said the Department supported demonstrators exercising their First Amendment rights, but said officers would intervene if laws were broken or crimes were committed during the protests.
Elsewhere, organizers planned to stage a protest at the Brentwood home of mayoral candidate Rick Caruso Sunday evening.
Caruso, running for the mayor’s office as a Democrat, is often described as a pro-business billionaire with past ties to the Republican party.
Back in May, a local Planned Parenthood’s political fund criticized Caruso for his past campaign donations to anti-abortion politicians in various races across the country, as reported by the Los Angeles Times.
Caruso has since publicly voice his support for abortion rights and, prior to the criticism lofted his way by Planned Parenthood, pledged to “vigorously protect a woman’s right to choose.”

Can’t they get all the abortions they want in Los Angeles ?
They’re in California. What are they protesting?
They’re fighting for the right to impose their will on everyone else.
Why are commies protesting for communism in the middle of a communist city?
All their rage looks like....madness.
They do know California is a “camping” state, right?

Is the FR cooler still stocked with beer? I’m have another Beck’s Dark.
Rabid abortion advocates in California should look at a map for as long as it takes for them to realize that they are in California.
Protesting at least keeps them from f&$@ing like wild bunny rabbits on spanish fly
What are they protesting? Los Angeles women can abort to their hearts desire, right? They’re a bunch of silly wind up puppets.
As others have pointed out, the overturning of Roe has taken away the federal support for abortion and taken away a big roadblock to even considering pro-life legislation. Now, even though it is a remote possibility there, they are in a weaker position in the future if Conservatives in California ever try to get abortion curbed there.

What have you got? Another fabulous summer of love.
It’s interesting to note that almost all of these demonstrations are occurring in cities and states where unlimited unrestricted abortion is freely available.
“What have you got? Another fabulous summer of love.”
Funny you should say that.
The number 1 reason men go to pro choice rallies? To get laid. Not kidding.
Is abortion suddenly illegal in LA or anywhere in California? No. So what the hell are these idiots protesting?
Makes a lot of sense.
The liberal hive-mind is trying to create a crisis. I'm sure money is driving these nationwide protests.
You can bet the home boys are throwing M-80’s at the fat white lesbian cat ladies in the street - it’s 4 July after all - everyone is well stocked by now
Beer cooler’s fine, but the popcorn machine is starting to smoke. I dunno, it doesn’t look good.
