A Los Angeles parade honoring Martin Luther King Jr. quickly spiraled into chaos Monday when a fight broke out, leading to an alleged stabbing, while a cop was assaulted near the melee, according to police and reports.

Units from the Los Angeles Police Department were called to the intersection of Stocker Street and Crenshaw Boulevard following reports that a 40-year-old man was stabbed after a fight involving several people just before 2 p.m.

As a crowd grew around the scene, multiple fights reportedly broke out in adjacent streets, according to police. In response, officers formed a skirmish line and issued dispersal orders. A Los Angeles Police Department cop was allegedly assaulted near the MLK Day Parade route in Leimert Park, according to ABC 7.

The officer’s condition and whether it was related to the stabbing are not yet known.

I bet Miami had some last night when their thug team lost to some midwestern white boys.

You’d be surprised how few people in Miami care about the Hurricanes.

Would you let your kids attend MLK High School?
Would you ever live on MLK Blvd?

Why would you ever attend an MLK Day Parade?

“In 2025, a significant portion of gun violence in the U.S. involved Black Americans, with 88% of Black American gun deaths attributed to other Black Americans.”

This amazes me. How often do you hear any of the alleged black political warriors say we need to address this problem instead of them going zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz?

Why so surprised? It’s the generally accepted, ‘Martin Luther King Day Melee!’

Avoid these ‘celebrations’ of ‘civil rights’ and ‘freedom’ as much as possible! ;)

MLK’s dream doesn’t appear to be going in the right direction.

“MLK’s dream doesn’t appear to be going in the right direction.”

On a few occasions, I have wondering what MLK would think if he were still alive.

Would he be shocked at how the black community has descended into violence against one another and others not their skin color?

Would he been shocked to see the large number of out of wedlock child births in the black community?

Would he be shocked to see the black communities’ problems with substance abuse?

What would he think of those now claiming to the mantle of spokesperson for the black community - Al Sharpton, Ben Crump, Patrisse Cullors, etc?

Would he speak out and say “Guys, this isn’t what I was thinking about!” or would he revert to the tired old line of systemic racism being the cause of all of the black communities’ problems?

A brawl at a MLK parade.

This is my shocked face.

All it took was for one person to “disrespect” another, I bet.
