Heading to this one now. To recap, LASD Sheriffs, which is infested with literal white-power gangs, killed a Black man named Dijon Kizzee this week and then committed an unbelievable amount of violent crimes against peaceful protesters last night
Here's my coverage of last night's unprovoked attack by LASD, also check out @cogeian and @PplsCityCouncil for more coverage of last night: https://twitter.com/desertborder/status/1302443275161223168?s=19
Just got here, it's calm for now. There's about 50 people on the sidewalk across from the sheriff's station, all the sheriffs are outside and geared up again
The mother of the little girl on the flyer talks about the sheriffs targeting her daughter, the need for continued protest, and the possibility that her and her daughter were specifically targeted last night for their participation in previous protests
People walked up onto the sheriff's lawn now. At least half the crowd has some kind of defensive gear, which is obviously smart given what happened yesterday
Sheriffs just declared an unlawful assembly, so I guess the overwhelming attack that's about to come will be... Slightly more legal than last night?
Well, there it is
This lady was going off on em
They're getting ready to attack again. There's only like 20 people left on this side
"Is all this fucking necessary?"
A car just drove up and one of the protesters said "don't go that way, they'll shoot at you" and the driver said "we're used to it" and turned around and left
They're unloading another riot squad out of a big-ass truck
They just opened up on the crowd again, shot a random car parked on the street hella times
We ran down another side street and somebody was like "they won't shoot in a residential neighborhood" so I had to remind her this isn't Beverly Hills and they don't give a fuck about that here
They're driving through the neighborhoods in their ridiculous troop transport thing and snatching people
