If you don't understand the geography of LA, understand that between Fairfax and West LA is Beverly Hills. This police "stand" is to stop this protest from marching through BH and heading to the Westside (i.e. where the predominately rich white folks are).https://twitter.com/josh_ethier/status/1266862303594426368 …

Also I don’t think the cops would be freaking out if the protesters had gone East. Though since the mayor lives in Hancock Patk that might also have created another barrier. Though if they started this in Ktown and went east, I do not think they would have started up until dark.

And the neighborhood has changed. 3rd and Fairfax was not something the police protected during the 92 LA Uprising when it was just the Farmer’s Market there & before the Zgrove or Whole Foods.

Just west of Beverly Hills is Holmby Hills. A part of Westwood. That's where the Playboy mansion is. It's an area of mega mansions, more so than BH. Bel Air is NW of BH which also is home to many mega rich & celebrities.
