Police declared all of downtown Los Angeles to be an unlawful assembly area and ordered protesters to go home on Sunday night after a third day of violence hit demonstrations against President Donald Trump's immigration policy.

National Guard troops - deployed by Trump at the weekend to help quell the protests in a move that California Governor Gavin Newsom called unlawful - guarded federal government buildings on Sunday.

That’s alright. Just remember that 10x thousand strong protests are much harder for them to police than 1x ten-thousand strong. And it doesn’t have to be in downtown. There are plenty of areas on LA. Hell take it to Beverly Hills and watch the rich people freak out, or any number of of other places.
