I hold their concern for the drunken knife wielder suspect. They’re probably looking for an excuse to go looting. We’re about due for one of those.
Los Angeles Police Protective League reaction to protest
Various community activists, including the Revolutionary Communist Party, are attempting to gin this shooting up into a controversy, agitating a small handful of others to conduct protests of this shooting. The pathetic attempt to excuse the armed advance on the responding officers by claiming the man did not speak English only highlights the inanity of the protest. For the record, the officers gave him commands in English and Spanish, not that it matters because getting drunk and threatening bystanders and then LAPD officers with a knife is dangerous and self-destructive in any language.
