Dope1: The LAPD chief just blew away the left's narrative...


Funny, but he didn't blow anything anyway because you left this out:

Later in the same news conference, McDonnell said he believed those responsible for the violence were not the same as those protesting against immigration-enforcement activity.

“When I look at the people who are out there doing the violence, that’s not the people that we see during the day who are legitimately out there exercising their First Amendment rights to be able to express their feelings about the immigration enforcement issue,” he said.

We've said all along that most of the protesters were peaceful. Those who are acting violently are not the protesters, they're professional agitators and it's impossible to know if they're from the left or right unless and until they're arrested... and democrats believe those committing violence should be arrested. Republicans believe in pardoning them.

BTW, here's an Australian reporter being shot by the LAPD for doing her job: https://bsky.app/profile/lucky...
