@governor.ca.gov still waiting for you to get these LAPD cops in line. If you don’t soon, every single one needs to be fired. They simply ARE NOT good at their jobs. Bunch of overly emotional men that cannot regulate their emotions. You’ve been doing better….stand up to LAPD and their chief. Barf.

Those officers take their orders from somebody. The mayor praised the protest, so who ordered those officers to start attacking peaceful protestors? The govornor and mayor need to be accountable for the actions of their officers and immediately fix the cause.

It’s not fear, they live for this, it’s the most entertaining part of the job. And they get paid overtime to do it. State police here in Oregon just got caught bragging about how much fun attacking protestors is in recruitment emails they tried to keep secret. www.oregonlive.com/crime/2025/0...

Welcome to the DPD tear gas club. The time they gassed us I was with a group of elderly, disabled, and mamas with children group that was hanging away from the main group in the park. The DPD came up to us and pepper sprayed the group. We were protesting the killing of Paul Castaway 2015.

Perfect visual of what’s going on. On one side we see people helping a neighbor get to safety. They don’t benefit, no payment was made. On the other, we also see people who don’t see neighbors only targets. They desire chaos and fear is their payment. In other words, 2 world views: right vs left

No, not really. And they routinely unilaterally declare protests unlawful without cause. And even if people cared, it takes a lot longer to safely disperse a crowd than they ever give before they start firing into the crowd.

Seems like they should have to give loud and clear dispersal orders, that everyone is aware of, before being aggro like that.

They should only be aggro like that when there is a clear threat to public safety. Frankly, they should not be aggro like that at all. This is the issue. We have become so numb to police brutality we now it a measured response. It isn’t. It’s just fear mongering and oppression.
jun 15, 2025, 2:53 pm • 0 0 • view
Personally, I think if they give clear instructions to leave, and ample time for people to comply in good faith, then it’s fine to start with some of these tactics (but am guessing once they start with it, things escalate — either from hostile officers, agitators in the crowd… probably both.)
jun 15, 2025, 3:50 pm • 0 0 • view
The vast majority of the time it feels like the time between "this is an unlawful assembly, disperse" and police violence can be measured in seconds. The bigger the crowd, the faster it is. In 2020 they often did the violence first and gave the dispersal order only after people fought back.

As I understand it, "time, place, and manner" restrictions are permissible under the 1A (and for good reasons... heckler's veto, for example.) However, I understand why some protests might choose to disobey those rules (e.g. civil disobedience during the civil rights protests.)

If you do, you kinda have to accept the consequences (arrest, etc.) But sounds like you're saying the LAPD was using this, without exhausting more reasonable means first. Which if so, I can see your point!

Big part of the problem with this is that arrest now also means being literally brutalized. Not just humanely cuffed and processed for the evening. THAT should never be the result of peaceful demonstration and the police have proven time and again they don’t care.
