Summary
Thousands protested in downtown Los Angeles on Sunday against a surge in ICE raids under President Trump’s administration.
Demonstrators marched from Olvera Street to City Hall before blocking lanes on the 101 Freeway, leading to major traffic disruptions.
The California Department of Transportation confirmed freeway closures, while LAPD reported gridlock across key streets.
Trump has intensified deportations since taking office, prompting widespread demonstrations in major cities. Authorities have yet to confirm arrests or further enforcement actions.
Yeah exactly. Doing this just pisses off citizens who can’t see the cause behind the effect. If you want real change, lasting change, the people in power need to feel like they might actually be killed if they don’t turn this shit off.
Sit-in’s and the like were some of the most effective displays of the civil rights era and they inconvenienced all kinds of citizens. You think those were a bad idea too?
We apologize for the inconvenience 🙄
Tell me about your awesome civil rights? Slavery ended 155 years ago and we still need dei because society still has not balanced the scales… Imagine if you never stopped the pressure, but I guess that was to inconvenient for you.
Pretty hard for me to keep up the pressure from a time I wasn’t even alive. And who said things were solved and balanced? Who said the work was done? Hell who said I wasn’t out there doing the work while you sit here bitching about people doing the work from your smartphone?
You’re responding to things I didn’t say or imply. Quit waving your finger at people going “you’re doing it wrong” as you sit there refusing to do anything yourself. Go be an example, do the right thing instead of tearing down people who are putting in the work while you whine.
Get a grip none of that is true. Sorry to have inconvenienced you have a nice day.
You are literally making no sense.
Unlike your sarcastic well wishing I actually hope you have a nice day. I don’t know what’s got you swinging at everyone around you but you should take a beat, look around you, and find ways to actually be effective and helpful instead of shitting on people who are doing things. Really and truly. I hope you find a better way here.
That was then. This is now. Things change, we need to match the crazy. I’m all for doing things like protesting, but that should be the bare minimum action.
It’s fine to inconvenience people, but they have to be the right people. This needed to happen in 2016. We are over 8 years left to the party.
To me, there’s no more effort involved by moving the protest to a more effective location. If you’re involved with any of these protests, please suggest other locations for a more meaningful message. The senator has a house… that’s a good spot. Governor, mayor, judges… those are good spots. They need to be afraid.
You have literally no reason to believe any of this other than not wanting to walk back your ignorant statement too far. Explain to me why now is different than 2016? Every protest all the time gets treated like this.
Let’s talk about occupy Wall Street, for instance. Nothing but ridicule.
March for Our Lives, Women’s March, March for Science? “Bougie sign parties” despite insane turnout and momentum.
BLM “burned cities.”
Now? “Wahhhh they’re inconveniencing people” which as I mentioned we heard during civil rights.
You are part of the problem. You will never take a protest seriously because you will always find some reason to say “they’re doing it wrong.” Wake the fuck up dude. Stop tearing down the people who are actually doing something. What the hell did you do while they were out there on the streets? Come online and fucking bitch about it?
Playtime is over. Get off the bench and get with the fucking program or get out of the way.
Lmfao. If you think I don’t take protests seriously, and I want to lynch trump, then you just proved me right! Because NONE of the random people on the street are going to be hard against the wall left—like I am.
So, thank you.
Yeah Mr. Super Leftist, you take them so seriously that you’re sitting here attacking them from your computer instead of being out there. You’re doing amazing work here. Truly an inspiration.
You aren’t listening.
Oh no don’t you worry, I heard your masturbatory bullshit just fine.
Ahh yes, telling people that focused protesting is more effective than screaming in the street is masturbatory. It sounds like you’d rather them stay ineffective. MAGA much?
