Mayor Karen Bass has finally done something constructive and in the process, admitted the problem that she's been trying to deny. She declared a local emergency and issued a curfew for downtown Los Angeles.

Bass should have done this by Saturday night, instead of bloviating 'til now. She acknowledged more than twenty businesses had been looted. She said the graffiti was everywhere and had caused significant damage to businesses and properties. She warned people would be arrested if they break the curfew. She explained that hundreds of officers from across the state were working with LAPD.
I wonder if that may mean that they just go outside of the LAPD area, but at least that's something.
There were also actions in other cities.
There was a huge group in Chicago.

A car treated it like… a street.

In Seattle, a group reportedly tried to block the federal building. They taunted the federal agents, saying, "See what happened in L.A."

Finally, the police had to come in and charge them to get them out of the streets, and some were arrested.
NYC- Pure madness on the street outside of the entrance to the Brooklyn Bridge where NYPD is trying to keep people on the sidewalk.

Looks like some were going to "find out" that wasn't a great move, and there's going to be a lot of unrest this evening.
Editor's Note: President Trump isn't going to allow lawlessness to reign in America. We will not have a repeat of 2020's "Summer of Love."
