With President Donald Trump back in office, the constant protests from liberals who apparently have nothing better to do are also back. And they are already being coddled by Los Angeles Democrats.
On Tuesday, pro-illegal immigration protests in Los Angeles stretched into their third day, with students from multiple high schools cutting class to participate. Protesters on all three days of the protests marched while waving Mexican flags to protest the deportations of illegal immigrants. Evidently, the best way they can come up with to convince people that illegal immigrants should be Americans because they make the U.S. better is to wave the flags of a foreign nation that is exporting fentanyl and cartel members across our southern border.

When protests started on Sunday, protesters illegally blocked the 101 Freeway. Five Los Angeles Police Department officers were injured, and multiple police vehicles were vandalized, but only two arrests were made. On Monday, police officers prevented multiple attempts by protesters to again illegally block the 101. Fireworks were shot at police, vehicles were vandalized, two officers were injured, and yet no arrests were made.
Throughout these three days of protests, police detained hundreds of people but let them go. The Los Angeles Police Protective League, the largest union representing LAPD officers, wants an investigation into why officers had to stand down. Mayor Karen Bass, an expert at watching things happen and doing nothing about them, announced that she was “actively monitoring” the protests while announcing that she was on the side of the protesters. According to Bass, “L.A. is a city of immigrants,” even, apparently, the ones who would rather wave the Mexican flag than the American one.

Bass and Los Angeles Democrats have watched three straight days of protesters with nothing better to do than commit multiple illegal acts only for police to be blocked from doing their jobs. The message is clear that, in Los Angeles, protesters get to do whatever they want. The message comes just in time for the return of protesting as a hobby for liberals all across the city (and the country).
This is about what is expected from Bass and Los Angeles Democrats, who have proven time and time again that they can and will find any way to make the city worse. This is the first set of protests in Los Angeles during the Trump presidency, but it won’t be the last. The tolerance for criminal activity among protesters is only going to further degrade the quality of life in the city.
