George Floyd protesters swarm Beverly Hills and LOOT high-end stores on Rodeo Drive as 500 people are arrested in LA in scenes eerily similar to the 1992 race riots that left the city in ruins

Stores from mom-and-pops to high-end retailers in ritzy Beverly Hills were looted, and in downtown Los Angeles, protesters sprayed graffiti and torched police cruisers while police shot rubber bullets into crowds and were seen beating demonstrators with batons.
.

.
LA Mayor Eric Garcetti announced a curfew in downtown LA starting 8p.m. Saturday through to 5:30a.m. Sunday, in desperate efforts to restore some order as he urged both law enforcement and protesters to 'take a deep breath and step back for a moment'.

Garcetti said he would stop short of calling for the activation of the National Guard.

“Especially for the hollywood types who are trying to virtue-signal by offering to post bail for any of these criminal rioters who are arrested.”

They support Antifa, rioters,etc...
but can’t figure out why it’s affecting them.
Idiots.

My understanding is most insurance policies specifically Exclude damage or loss from civil unrest unless you add that to your policy.

And yet they are scared to death to have any weapons available to protect themselves and their property. Oh well.

The mother’s milk of politicians is money.

Democrats could not get elected in California without the financial backing of businesses and the wealthy.

Business in Los Angeles and San Francisco for reasons only known to themselves have chosen to support socialist Democrats who stand for higher taxes and more rules, regulations and laws.

Yet, when faced with real crisis, the Democrats fold like a cheap lawn chair.

Maybe the social warriors will visit silicone valley next. I mean who would object if a few buildings were burned to the ground in the name of NO JUSTICE NO PEACE. /S

You know, some people are stealing and they’re making a big deal out of it. Oh, they’re stealing 20 pair of jeans or they’re stealing television sets. Who cares? They’re not going to go too far with it. Maybe those people are so poor, some of the people who do that they’re so poor they’ve never touched anything in their lives. Let them touch those things for once.

You call in the National Guard in BEFORE the rioting starts, not after it is all over. Liberal Fu*ktards.

I’m surprised this is being permitted in Beverly Hills. I would not have guessed that the entertainers to the elitists would allow themselves to be inconvenienced just like the little people. Does this mean that America’s enemies on the left see this as their most important battle? This is another sign that decent people have to make sure the globalists lose in the November 3, 2020 election.

Can Trump by executive order declare national insurrection and send in troops regardless of the various governor’s wishes?

If he declares Martial law.

Then all hell breaks out.

This, although bad, isnt bad enough yet. They have not moved into the private residences or areas where there are private homes. When that happens, and I suppose it might, then there is a problem.

They can nip this quickly. All they have to do in infiltrate these bastards and follow those who are the chief instigators and some, clip them, and others arrest. It gets them to start looking at each other with suspicion.

They should have looted that fugly Canuck’s house in Las Vegas when the useless b*tch made that stupid statement.

She would have been singing a different tune, that phony.

“Who cares?” The hardworking businessmen and women who had their businesses ruined by loser negroes, that’s who!
