700 marines mobilized to Los Angeles after violent protests over immigration raids

#losangeles #america #american #usa #trump Three days of protests as people march against the government’s policies on immigration. Increasingly violent scenes - with both sides blaming the other. The White House accused protesters of using violent tactics. Critics said Trump’s shocking deployment of the national guard is simply because he wants to create chaos and division. With pockets of demonstrations flaring up over the weekend - and incidents of clashes between protesters and police - Trump called in at least 2,000 members of California’s national guard. But protesters believe their presence - and use of tear gas and flash bang grenades - is only inflaming a tense situation - with an Australian reporter struck by a rubber bullet while covering the demonstrations. Protesters took over and stopped traffic on the 101 freeway in LA - with some throwing objects at officers who had to take cover. With cars set alight later on - Trump and his supporters said this warranted his actions - with his supporters also claiming that because people were waving the Mexican flag - that Los Angeles was now quote “occupied territory.” It was on Friday that people began to protest after immigration raids in parts of Los Angeles - with people put in unmarked vehicles and then driven away in convoys - with military protection also on hand. Crowds began to form and some people tried to stop the vehicles. Protesters marched on a federal building in downtown LA where it was believed many of those detained were being held. ICE have said that their operations in LA this week resulted in the arrest of 118 so-called aliens - that’s people who are not legal residents of the USA. For Trump and Republicans - this is what he won the election on - a hard line stance on immigration from the government For the people of LA - they say this should be a sanctuary city where they are protected by the state of California.
