The violent unrest gripping the nation spread Saturday night to a suburb of San Diego, where rioters burned two banks to the ground and looted and destroyed many other businesses.

Peaceful protests over the killing of George Floyd in Minneapolis turned into riots as night fell on La Mesa, a suburb of about 60,000 people east of San Diego, leaving a trail of destruction.

They torched the Chase and Union banks next door to each other, Fox 5 reported.

“Who is George Floyd, never heard of him”

A worthless piece of scum who engaged in “death by cop” and is now being used as a useful dead idiot to promote world communism.

Democrat politicians have said nothing in condemnation of this anarchy. The mayors of these cities have a lawful obligation to provide for the security and safety of their residents and their communities.

They have apparently chose to negate that obligation. I hope the voters remember this dangerous disregard come November.

Well, they did say they would bring it to the suburbs, and La Mesa is definitely suburban, and mostly white and hispanic. Note that the locals were out the next morning, sweeping and cleaning up the streets. It’s too bad the police didn’t “clean up the streets” before the damage was done. This, and the looting at Grossmont Center was most definitely not La Mesa locals.

So many are nonchalant about everything burning down. The economy BEFORE this sh*tstorm was in the toilet and government BROKE. Now,it will be more in the toilet,if that’s even possible, and WE THE TAXPAYER are going to pay for ALL of it.
