It turns out that people in a community are defensive when community members start getting abducted by masked people without badges or uniforms (in some cases) in unmarked vehicles. Who would have thought? These ICE fuckers need to be [redacted].

Repeated ICE raids into LA.

There were planned protests against ICE. Chuds found out and spread the word that drug cartels were going to start a riot. The protests started and they were fine, just normal protest stuff. Chuds started exaggerating everything on social media, saying that LA was burning. Same shit that happened in other protests. Trump decides to score some political dunks on Newsom and takes over the CA national guard. He then orders them to go in and disperse the protests. LAPD, being themselves, had already stepped over the line a couple times as usual. But with the NG rolling in, it just ups the anti. Just like in 2020, we get people being abused by authority and then chuds using that to prove that they're these crazy riots happening. Liberal media doesn't help because they just want to report on something exciting.

As more people get hurt, more people show up for supporting the protestors.
