Turkish Demonstrators Asked to Leave Consulate Amid Armenian Genocide March

They’re throwing eggs and bottles at us,” said Kutsal Kocer, who was standing with the Turkish demonstrators.

Kocer told KTLA she and the other Turkish demonstrators were asked to leave the building because police could not protect them from the marchers.

“It’s a shame that these people are violent and they are turning this into a Christian/Muslim war,” Kocer said.

A group of LAPD officers was seen a short time later moving the two groups further apart, seemingly calming the situation.

Thousands of people took part in the mostly peaceful 6-mile march, dubbed the “March for Justice,” from the corner of Western and Sunset to the Turkish Consulate on Wilshire Boulevard.

Participants in the annual march have called for recognition of the deaths of about 1.2 million Armenians as a genocide, the Los Angeles Times reported.

Due to the protests or march, every person I spoke with told me it took them 1 hour just to get out of Hollywood which was the epicenter of the March. ! hour which can usually takes me less than 5 minutes.

obummer never used the word genocide so it must not have been /s
Besides, he told Ergoden he would attend the opening of the 1/10 of a billion dollar mosque in Maryland built with Turkish money to celebrate the takeover of America, er, the diversity of America

Substantial’ is an understatement. Every year they do this and they tie up traffic for miles. It’s probably the biggest event in Hollywood traffic-wise vs the Oscars.

But I’ll tell you, if you think Israelis and pro-Palestinians cannot co-exist, try pairing an Armenian with a Turk. It’s just bad blood. This is an example of why mooslums are animals.

They're called the "Kardashians."

It is a little known fact that Hitler thought he could get away with the holocaust because the Armenian genocide was practically ignored in the press.

The more things change the more they stay the same.

That, Sir, is a very nasty slander of animals.
