ANAHEIM – At least four marchers who took part in unruly protests Sunday against the city’s police department have been arrested, on the ninth consecutive day of demonstrations by residents and activists furious over two recent police shootings.
Two protestors – Mark Dameron of San Diego and Corbin Sobrita of Escondido – were arrested in front of the Anaheim Police Department’s headquarters on Harbor Boulevard, Anaheim police Sgt. Bob Dunn said, where a crowd of more than 200 was demonstrating Sunday afternoon.

Is it politically incorrect to ask, is Anaheim going ghetto? The home of Disneyland has all this unrest???
Years ago, Anaheim was a nice suburban area. Not so sure about it anymore.

Note to self: When you get the urge to kiss mother earth, move away from the horse turds. That boy ain’t right in the head.
California has gone third world. Half of all illegal aliens are there.
In the late 70s I lived in Orange on Batavia between Chapman and Katella. It was a nice middle class place. Anaheiem was an upper-mid to upscale area.
I was through there in 2000ish. I didn’t recognize the place.. There were some very nice areas, but some of it looked like absolute hell. I cannot imagine it today.
Illegal Aliens and gangs have moved heavily into the sections nearer to Santa Ana.
That'll teach those insolent peasants!
My high school sweetheart lived on Batavia...
An earlier thread established that the original shootings / protests were in a pretty decent neighborhood.
Take a look at the “cops” out there today. And Hillary is lecturing Assad about protest?
A lot of these protesters look like the same bums who are with OWS. They are the new rent a mob for the left. I wonder if any of them know what soap is?
The community is composed of Guatemalans.
What a refreshingly truthful article.
The unruly demonstration that originated at noon Sunday outside the Anaheim police station on Harbor encompassed several political-action groups, including protesters who said they were from the groups Anonymous and Mexican Movement. A group of self-identified Communists handed out a newspaper called Red Flag
Wow, Anonymous, Mexican Movement, and communists, and the following people aligned themselves with them:
The group was composed of several local politicians, including
state Sen. Lou Correa, D-Santa Ana;
state Assemblyman Jose Solorio, D-Anaheim;
county Clerk-Recorder Tom Daly;
county Supervisor-elect Todd Spitzer;
Anaheim Councilwoman Kris Murray.
These People are teaching our children:
Alejandrina Arellano, 25, of Anaheim, who works as an elementary school instructional assistant.
junior high school teacher from Anaheim, Juan Alvarez, 31, hoped the march would spark a community organizing around peace.
Rev. Fr. Arturo Ferreras of St. Matthew Ecumenical Catholic Church in Orange:
“We are gathered to let the world know we don’t want a community of violence on Anna Drive,” Ferreras told the mourners in Spanish as he presided over the ecumenical Catholic Mass. “We want our children to be able to grow up in peace. … Hopefully we will be able to make a better Anaheim and a better Anna Drive.”
I would think this is an opportune time for those conservative political leaders living behind the Orange Curtain to call out these leftists who look to take advantage of any/every possible issue (however loosely related) to drive their agenda of hate and violence.
Let me see if I have this right...a mexican gang member - who I am guessing doesn’t fall into any of these categories: an honor student walking home from school, an altar boy, a young father ‘in between jobs’, an oppressed worker, a ‘Dreamer’ (or a member of some other protected class special interest minority group) - gets gunned down by the police in the act of committing a crime. As far as I know, the facts are not in dispute. He himself was unarmed, but he was actively involved in shooting at the police.
Next thing we know, we have these parasite leftist organizations who are taking advantage of the staged unrest to push their violent “by any means necessary” revolutionary agenda. Do I have that right?
I realize this incident happened close to FantasyLand, but we need to cut through the crap with some strong leadership, and we need it now. Why doesn’t one right leaning pol in that city stand up and say, “look, we all regret loss of life. But there simply is NO EVIDENCE that the cops shot this guy indiscriminately, with racial malice, etc. It is extremely unfortunate that youths in our community have lost respect for our laws to the extent that they choose to confront police with violence. Are we surprised that, as a result of this lawlessness, the consequence for our wayward young men is they lose their lives. As bad as that situation is, that doesn’t justify the deliberate, encouragement of escalating violence by groups seeking to hijack this event with what amounts to criminal intent in our city. Groups like (cue the slide show of these pictures with the groups’ names emblazoned on their placards)...the communist party, a socialist revolutionary group, Earth First (are they on the scene yet?), etc.. To my knowledge, the deceased was not a communist nor did he support any of these causes. We need to ask - why are these people here? What situation do they seek to cause in our community? Is that helpful in healing our community or do they seek to perpetuate the pain and hurt for their own self serving agenda? I call on these bused in agenda groups to immediately cease unlawful actions that promote ongoing violence on our streets. I call on citizens interested in healing our community and ending violence to reject the hate speech of these opportunist groups. I call on the police to establish a dialog with community leaders who actually live in our community...in the interest of instilling peace and calm in our city.”
There are plenty of groups with “revolution” in their names, etc. I would use this situation as Exhibit A to plead for some sanity in California. call out these fringe groups and demand to bring them to justice. Its not ‘free speech’ when organized GANGS come out under the guise of free speech and political sympathy to spew their hate and fan the flames of irrational discontent until the aggrieved parties feel compelled to retaliate against the authorities. Oh wait, that’s EXACTLY what they want.
Isn’t “inciting a riot” a crime anymore?
Seems any ol’ “tragedy” will do for these hate groups to foment violent responses by the leftist revolutionary groups.
Best headline treatment of the day!
There are three parts of Anaheim: Anaheim Hills area which is upscale, Disneyland and Angels Stadium area, and the rest that have been declining in the past 30 years.
Years ago, Anaheim was a nice suburban area.
I grew up in the O.C area and Anaheim was a lovely part~~most of the area was~~but then somehow the ghetto arrived.
Very sad!!
Take a close look at some of the signs they are carrying in the slideshow. They are made by groups like the socialist workers, International Action Center (Ramsey Clark), PSLweb.org (Party for Socialism and Liberation), revcom.us (Revolutionary Communist Party, USA), votesocialism.com, ANSWER, Occupy Orange County, etc.
Liberalism on full display.
Maybe some good will come of this if it works it’s way into Hollywood. Those Hollywood types like this sort of crap until it shows up in their neighborhood.
