Trump Deportation Directives Fueling “La Raza” Revolt in L.A.

David Martin | The Daily Knight

For two days in a row, people demonstrating without a permit shut down Los Angeles freeways and assaulted police officers in protest of President Trump’s deportation directives, and for two days Mayor Karen Bass publicly ignored the situation and forbade officers to halt the unrest.  

Jen Van Laar, the Managing Editor of Red State, reports: 

“For the second day in a row, people protesting without a permit have shut down Los Angeles roadways and assaulted police officers, and for the second day in a row Mayor Karen Bass has publicly ignored the situation and privately told officers to stand down and retreat.”

The "La Raza" revolutionaries that blocked LA’s freeways on Feb. 3 was an utter disgrace. An executive order should be passed that would enable local police to answer directly to the president should corrupt mayors and governors forbid them from halting civil violence during times of crisis.   

More recently on Tuesday, hundreds of students from several high schools in East L.A. staged a walkout and marched to the steps of City Hall in protest of the recent ICE arrests. This came about through the instigation of teachers and administrative officials of the L.A. Unified School District who dispensed with classes in support of the protest. It shows how our educational system today has been reduced to a political platform to instigate revolt against moral authority.    

What we are seeing are the forces of Communism working through California's governing body and through the school systems to turn our youth against America and its President, Donald Trump. "Woe to the world because of scandals!" (Mt. 18: 7) Shame on "Mayor" Karen Bass and Gavin Newson for instigating this criminal revolt against justice. President Trump has done nothing worthy of protest but has defended our country from assault, which is precisely what the Communists resent.

One youngster told the press, “Some of my friends, their parents already got deported, and sadly, they don’t have all of their families with them.” If the parents are forced to return to Mexico the siblings have a moral obligation to go with them and help them there, but instead they separate themselves from them because they choose to stay here and make trouble.     

If our undocumented Latino friends do not honor the flag and respect the laws of this country, they have no business being here. As they say, “America, love it or leave it.” Immigration is not an entitlement, but a privilege. Our U.S. Latin American citizens should correct our undocumented neighbors from the south instead of fueling their protest. The growing unrest in our streets testifies to the truth of Trump's words that illegal immigration is bringing violence, hatred, and corruption to this country.
