LOS ANGELES (CBSLA) — Several LAPD cars have been vandalized as thousands of protestors converge in the Fairfax District, calling for change after the deadly arrest of George Floyd in Minneapolis on Monday.

At least two police cruisers were set on fire.

The demonstration, planned by Black Lives Matter Los Angeles, drew crowds to Pan Pacific Park by afternoon. At last word, the crowd had taken over the intersection of Third Street and Fairfax Avenue, blocking traffic.

This might turn out to be a terrible night in Los Angeles.

The useless excuse for a mayor is on TV now talking about “centuries of racism” and a bunch of other crap.

May the Lord keep your sister safe!

You should be asking your sister why she doesn’t have her own guns.

My great uncle and aunt lived in Parklabrea. Gilmore stadium was there, where the Hollywood Stars used to play. Farmers Market not too far from there either. My great-aunt, who was the most prejudiced person you can imagine would not approve of these events.

What kind of “change” are the rioters/protestors demanding? A change in Minneapolis police practices?

Biden supporters out early today. I thought they’d all be hungover after all that booze they looted last night.

Garcetti wants the rioters to stand down tonight to let volunteers clean the streets of the debris from last night! LOL

He wants to “restore the beauty of the city”.

What the heck is the matter with this guy?!

Be a wonderful night for some of the Hollyweird “stars” to come out and lend their support to these protestors (in person, not just throwing money at them). Walk it like you talk it!

I can’t help but think of the original WestWorld movie.

Everything is repaired and put back in order for a new day of action and destruction.

Yes it is. A lot of Orthodox Jews also live in the area.

he’s too busy making sure salons and churches are closed. OK to gather to riot and loot, but nor worship or have your hair cut.

I would add he may be stimulating the “unhoused neighbors.”

“A lot of Orthodox Jews also live in the area.”

If they are out tonight, I’m afraid they will become highly visible targets.

(to think that this should happen in LA...)

The “change” they want, is a Communist America, where everything is free and they can sit home all day long, play video games, and get paid to do so
