Garcetti: We will use the law to re-establish your liberty. Manages to make it sound like a threat, too

As Garcetti continues, aerial images of protestors using dumpsters to erect barricades in street intersections.

Garcetti says police do not deserve to have bricks thrown at their heads. Unclear if he is referencing a specific event or if this is a hypothetical situation he is pitching.

Correction, the dumpsters are not being used as barricades, they are being used as battering rams to breach the LAPD staging ground at Television City.

Prof.
@NiggaTheory on NBC: Mayor Garcetti, you sound very eloquent when you speak about these issues on TV but we all see what your values really are when we look at your budget.Afficher cette discussion -
NBC anchor just says "historically" LA "has had" "problems with race"
Afficher cette discussion -
A different anchor keeps saying "once peaceful protests have turned violent" like it's the product of a bad dice roll, rather than the willful antagonism by police of a protest against police violence.
Afficher cette discussion -
Anchor and helicopter pilot are mustering more genuine emotion for a splinter group of protestors attempting and failing to light a flag on fire - "really hard to watch our flag be discredited like that" - than they have for the racism and loss of life being protested.

Protestors have been blocked from entering the 101 right-of-way. Anchor and helicopter pilot exchange: Anchor: I imagine this must be a traffic nightmare Helicopter pilot: It really is

Curfews are spreading. Garcetti announced a curfew to be enforced in downtown at 8PM. NBC now announcing that will be the case in the entire cities of Beverly Hills and West Hollywood.

Mayor
@LindseyPHorvath is being asked about police coordination to maintain curfews on the westside. West Hollywood is patrolled by the Sheriff's Dept, Beverly Hills and LA, of course, have their own departments.Afficher cette discussion -
Sounds like there will be a very visible police presence throughout the westside. Stay safe, y'all.

Sheriff Villanueva is being asked about enforcing tonight's curfew. Says they deploy mobile squads of 20-22 officers at a time. Says enforcement will be on case-by-case basis, but with 3 different law enforcement agencies in play, who knows what will actually happen.
Afficher cette discussion -
To be clear, he didn't say the part after the ",but..." that is me editorializing
Afficher cette discussion -
Villanueva, asked by an anchor what he tells officers in his command, says that his officers share in the public's outrage so long as they respect the rule of law.
Afficher cette discussion -
The sheriff's dept, it might be observed, has had more than its fair share of constitutional policing complaints. Villanueva, who oversees one of if not the largest jailed populations in the country, has bristled at civilian oversight supported by Black Lives matter.

Councilmember Koretz: As upset as anyone about the "senseless" death of George Floyd, but the violence and looting in downtown Los Angeles last night is no less troubling
Afficher cette discussion -
Koretz: I have requested that the Mayor expand the curfew to our area, downtown is recovering, but now this area (Fairfax) is "under siege"
Afficher cette discussion -
Koretz: If we don't have the officers to do that, we have national guard at our disposal and I would ask for those resources to be deployed as well

There is a reason I refer to the cities in LA county as fortified homeowner’s associations, and this is basically why https://twitter.com/nickadamsweb/status/1266886847990386688?s=21 …https://twitter.com/nickadamsweb/status/1266886847990386688 …

Pilot: Look at the destruction in Fairfax, all of this chalk on the ground is from tear-gas canisters. Then blames it on individuals who come "with gas masks and cones" for the cops using tear gas - "it's the intention" of these individuals that has caused "this destruction"
Afficher cette discussion -
People showing up prepared for the cops to deploy vast amounts of tear gas are, I suppose, effectively causing the police to deploy vast amounts of tear gas.

NBC reporting that all of LA is under curfew as of 8PM until 5:30 AM. Pilot: Look at the looted mess here (at the Grove)
Afficher cette discussion -
The NBC report is tending toward white panic pornography. "Stay in your homes, that's what law enforcement wants you to do. Lock your doors right now."

This is the scene as a correspondent is describing "protestors throwing water bottles at police" - rubber bullets, tear gas, lots of screamingpic.twitter.com/BasHhiRRBO

The crowd is standing its ground here. And Garcetti is returning to the air now.
Afficher cette discussion -
Garcetti: This is no longer protest. This is destruction. This is vandalism... Not just of police vehicles, but of businesses that is so hard hit.

Out goes a the citywide Public Safety Alert to all cellphones subscribed to emergency alerts and on the emergency broadcast network.
