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.

Well as I see it the latest Career fad for Blacks is being a protester/activist. When you march you get on TV news...you get/loot free clothes and stuff, and if you’re lucky you get on a magazine cover or interview if you use a blownhorn well enough.

The latest addition is dress in well made fashionable matching attire, and have a portfolio of posed snapshots just in case.

One can only imagine the kind of talk that is going on these days in the locker rooms of police stations all across this land....

Lawless monsters killing cops is like an attack on their own family.

There WILL be a reckoning.

I don’t know but I’m beginning to think that living in an inhospitably cold in the winter northern climate isn’t such a bad thing after all.

It’s much easier to be homeless somewhere where it’s warm all the time.

Radio news coverage sounded familiar going back to when the same stuff was happening in New York .Where cops were being murdered as the aftermath of Obama using the Bully Pulpit creating racial division defending resisting arrests.

I recall how Rio De Janeiro dealt with the hordes of homeless "Children of the Street" many years ago.

They released actual police officers in 'SWAT' fashion to raid their hideouts and encampments and to execute them because of the unbearable lawlessness and crimes committed upon the population.

...no different than culling the deer population in the name of safety. I even watched a televised documentary on the subject of the "Street Children".

All the savages in the encampment should have been exterminated. Instead their rich mommas and pappas will hire expensive lawyers and get their spoiled, privileged devil offspring sprung free.

You have to be a social justice warrior if you want to be a CEO these days.
