Worth a read. Per the article McDonnell says there are multiple "documented" cases of officers being attacked. Okay, then show the video and evidence then. There were cameras everywhere.

The Police Department has faced harsh criticism that its officers responded to attacks from a small group of agitators by using force against the larger crowd of protesters.

Yesterday, we reclaimed public space for another Really, Really Free Market! While LA politicians cut services, increase criminalization, and collaborate with fascists, hundreds of everyday people from across Los Angeles came together in community to meet each other’s needs. We take care of us!

Nat Guard/DHS threw tear gas canisters and smoke grenades into the crowd. Protesters and media hit. Pellet rounds deployed. All to seemingly clear path for a convoy of DHS/Border Patrol vehicles. I got hit but fine after an eye rinse.

Earlier, federal police in DTLA shot me in the finger with a pepper ball, and I got hit multiple times in the back w/ "less-lethal" rounds. Looks like my backpack saved me from getting hit in the back a few more times. I'm currently resting up at home.

Exactly this. Go to TikTok. Look at the lives. It’s 400 people OUTSIDE LA, standing outside an ICE facility and they are making the ruling class shake. This is a sign of weakness on the part of the ruler: they are afraid and they can be stopped.

Practically speaking, 2,000 National Guard in an area the size of Greater Los Angeles can't do very much without local agency help.
They can lock down a couple neighborhoods. They can stay put and protect some federal facilities. They can't enforce a curfew on 18 million people across 4000 sq miles

By comparison, there were 2,500 Cal National Guard deployed to Los Angeles during the 2020 racial justice uprising.
But in 2020, Cal Guard was assisted by many thousands of LAPD, LASD, and CHP.
Greater Los Angeles is very, very large and spread out. 18 million people.

DHS HSI were on the radio two hours ago begging other agencies for water.
"We're out of water and it's very hot out here" - they were also asking for an escort and local cops did not provide it.
It took two hours for additional DHS tactical teams to arrive from elsewhere. This looks like them.
