  Trump is using the military to occupy a city that hates him. He wants to deport a lot of people, but the city isn’t having it so protests have emerged.

  From what I’ve seen, four self driving taxies was burned (the car on the image) by protestors, while the police intentionally shot a news reporter, used a horse to trample a detained protestor, and has deployed marines to the streets.

    Its not that they’re self driving; it’s that they’re covered in cameras and the cops have live access.

      It’s worse than that. The waymos were originally ordered by protesters wishing to leave the area. Sheriff didn’t like that, so they asked waymo directly to lock down the cars so they couldn’t be used to “flee the area”. Waymo complied and stranded people in the middle of this mess, and the crowd decided to help them out and express their displeasure at waymo for capitulation to the gestapo. I hope whatever insurance waymo has denies all their claims and forces them to eat the loss.

        I have not seen this information anywhere, it should be brought to attention more.

        Everywhere it is “rioters ordered the waymos, they arrived empty and then were set on fire”.

      I wasn’t claiming a reason why they did it, just wanted to highlight how much worse the police’s response has been.

    A photojournalist was hit over the weekend and is still in the hospital after surgery.

    Saw news report claiming the deportation was a rumor, the op never happened. Lemmy shows otherwise, what’s real?

  The federal agency ICE is completely captured by fascists. They are arbitrarily staging immigration crackdowns using hastily deputized agents who arrest people off the street while hiding their identity. They came to Los Angeles, a fervently anti-fascist area. It triggered massive but mostly peaceful protests. Trump is using the protests as a pretext to mobilize the federal military against citizens.

    Thank you. I have no idea what happened to LA this past few days, i know there’s a protest and there’s police violence against protestors and there’s chaos, beyond that i’m very much in the dark.

    ‘Captured’

    I would say ‘founded and staffed’, but yes.

  The orange turd is attacking American citizens to cause commotion so we can forget that he is named in the Epstein files where he is probably named as a rapist.
