Hours after shooting of deputies, law enforcement clears L.A. protest encampment
LA Times ^ | 09/13/2020 | By James Queally, Leila Miller

Posted on 09/13/2020 8:56:12 PM PDT by BenLurkin

The encampment first appeared in Grand Park across from City Hall in June amid protests over the death of George Floyd in Minneapolis. It was cleared out around 3 a.m. after deputies declared an unlawful assembly in the area, the Sheriff’s Department said in a statement.

Authorities said the action was taken because of “deteriorating conditions” in the park. They denied it was connected to the shooting of two deputies in Compton late Saturday or recent demonstrations against the department in South L.A. after deputies shot and killed bicyclist Dijon Kizzee. On Friday, deputies in riot gear surrounded a peaceful news conference held by some of the same demonstrators.

Protests near the South L.A. sheriff’s station over Kizzee’s killing have drawn hundreds of demonstrators, including those affiliated with Black Unity L.A., the protest group that had also been running the encampment.

In its statement, the Sheriff’s Department alleged that “illegal narcotic activity, vandalism and graffiti” had become an issue near the encampment. About 25 protesters and 11 homeless people were in the encampment when it was cleared. One person was arrested for trespassing, the Sheriff’s Department said. The park will be closed for an undetermined period of time.

I’ve got a feeling the Rats are beginning to see that the Frankenstein monster they created is out of control and because of the polling they’re going to come down hard on the mostly peaceful protesters. I kinda hope they keep up the violence. I know that sounds bad. But sometimes things have to get worse before getting better.

If this psychotic mayhem gets Trump back in, I’m going with “by any means necessary”.

He can NOT lose.

America depends on it.

The only reason it doesn’t sound bad is because saving 330 million is more important than saving a few hundred or thousand.

I think we must have this insanity continue up until the election..

Trump cannot win in this situation until after the election.

if he crushes it with Feds it will be forgotten. If feds kill a child then he will be crucified.

Let’s just win and then take it from there

I have a 500,000 BTU propane “wand” that I largely use to start the social fire in the fire pit. Only takes a few seconds.

I’m sure it could easily clear any number of Antifa compounds while the perps were out for the evening...

Only a fool would voluntarily live, locate a business or invest in an urban area where the Governor, Mayor and governing body are Democrats and the DA is an elected Democrat. Such places are unlivable.

Provide them with nothing to return to.

That is the end result of their actions for others.

Eye for an eye. It’s not just a good idea, it’s ancient Social Justice.

The CA tactic now is to blame Trump for wildfires and Covid.

Not forest mismanagement.
And of course never mentioning that CA is the most sold out state to China.

And till the soil up. Tell the perps that the soil needed to be aerated . Then plant a lot of rose bushes and cactus plants so the perps won’t come back with their tents.

Some of the underground parking structures around there reek like urine so bad you find yourself trying to hold your breath. The fumes will burn your eyes.
