From the perspective of a Trump supporter, basking in the glow of the American people's choice to re-elect the 47th President, the Los Angeles riots are a masterclass in how to alienate a nation that just voted for law, order, and a return to sanity. The mainstream media's love affair with calling these riots "mostly peaceful" is like calling a pit bull mauling a "friendly nibble." Let's break down this circus of chaos with a smirk and a nod to the Daily Sceptic's razor-sharp takedown: https://dailysceptic.org/2025/06/11/on-the-mostly-peaceful-los-angeles-riots/.
First off, the media's mantra, BBC, NPR, Le Monde, you name it, insists these riots are "largely peaceful." The New York Times, Stern, and even La Croix are out here reciting the same script, like they're auditioning for a remake of Invasion of the Body Snatchers. "Peaceful" gets thrown around 18 times in Wikipedia's article, as if repetition makes it true. Meanwhile, the streets of LA look like a Michael Bay movie set: looted stores, shattered windows, and concrete chunks flying at cops like it's the World Series of Anarchy. But sure, "mostly peaceful." Tell that to the shop owners sweeping up glass or the drivers dodging rocks hurled at their cars, caught on YouTube for all to see, no less.
Here's the kicker: these rioters aren't just breaking stuff; they're breaking the Left's own narrative. Trump won because Americans are fed up with this nonsense. The silent majority saw through the media's rose-tinted goggles and voted for a guy who'd rather build walls than watch cities burn. Yet, the rioters keep at it, tossing Molotov cocktails and "projectiles" like they're auditioning for Antifa's Got Talent. The Guardian's "few hundred people" must have superhuman strength to cause this much havoc. And when 700 Marines roll in, it's just "moments of tension"? That's like calling D-Day a beach picnic.
The satire writes itself. If this is "peaceful," then I'm opening a "mostly calm" demolition business. Step one: loot a Foot Locker. Step two: hurl some concrete at a squad car. Step three: cry "oppression" when the National Guard shows up. The Left's playbook is so predictable it's practically a colouring book. Euronews whining about "rare violent incidents" is peak comedy, rare, like unicorns or a balanced CNN segment. NPR quoting some random lady saying "everybody here wants to be peaceful" while bricks fly overhead? That's not journalism; that's performance art.
From a pro-Trump lens, these riots are a self-own of epic proportions. The American people spoke loud and clear: they want jobs, safety, and a country that doesn't look like a post-apocalyptic yard sale. The rioters, egged on by a media that can't stop simping for chaos, are just proving why Trump's back in the White House. They're not winning hearts and minds; they're torching their own credibility. Keep smashing, folks, every broken window is another vote for law and order in 2028.
So, to the "mostly peaceful" crowd: congrats on turning LA into a live-action GTA server. You've shown the world how NOT to protest, how NOT to persuade, and how NOT to respect the will of the voters. Maybe next time, try a ballot instead of a brick. And it is not great optics, while taking a pause from looting and burning police cars, to fly the Mexican flag, the country you don't want to go back to, and burn the American flag. This writes the ads for the 2028 election.
The Los Angeles riots, as chronicled by Michael Snyder (https://michaeltsnyder.substack.com/p/what-the-riot-planners-are-plotting), are just the opening act of a radical Left tantrum against the will of the American people, who decisively elected Donald J. Trump as their 47th President. These "No Kings" protests, slated to erupt in over 1,550 locations nationwide on June 14, 2025, aren't just a cry-baby response to a democratic mandate, they're a calculated middle finger to the heartland that voted for secure borders and law enforcement.
The radical Left's playbook is as clear as it is unhinged: open borders, no jails, and a free-for-all where laws are optional and chaos is king. They're waving upside-down flags and anti-ICE slogans in San Francisco, screaming "Move ICE, get out the way!" while skating through the streets to Kendrick Lamar's beats. Their "No Kings" manifesto, plastered on their website, frames Trump's border policies as authoritarian while conveniently ignoring that 60% of Americans, including Hispanic voters (per Gallup polls), support stronger border security. They want a world where ICE is abolished, detention centres are shuttered, and anyone can waltz across the border without consequence. No jails? Sure, because who needs accountability when you've got "anti-fascist" keffiyehs and cardboard signs?
This vision isn't just impractical, it's a deliberate poke in the eye to the working-class Americans who backed Trump to restore order. The Left's dream of a borderless, policeless society clashes with the 74 million voters who said "enough" to unchecked immigration and urban chaos. While the Left romanticises their "movement" as a rejection of "thrones and crowns," the public sees it for what it is: a tantrum that torching Foot Lockers and smashing cop cars somehow equals justice.
The "No Kings" protests, hyped by well-funded Leftist groups, aim to spread LA's looting and vandalism to cities like New York, Chicago, Dallas, and even red-state strongholds like Austin. Over 9,000 protesters in San Francisco turned Mission Street into a circus, with 60 arrests for vandalism and ignoring dispersal orders. Dallas saw intersections shut down, and Austin had over a dozen agitators cuffed, with Governor Abbott bluntly warning, "FAFO." Yet the media, true to form, calls this "overwhelmingly peaceful," as if broken windows and Molotov cocktails are just enthusiastic hugs.
This coordinated revolt, backed by dozens of prominent Leftist organizations, isn't about dialogue, it's about intimidation. They're not just protesting Trump's birthday parade on June 14; they're trying to drown out the voice of a nation that chose him. The irony? Their chaos only strengthens Trump's hand. As Snyder notes, the White House sees this as a "political win," with officials gleefully ready to "have this fight." Why? Because every looted store and burned-out car dealership screams to Middle America: "This is why you voted for Trump."
The American public, including a diverse coalition of Hispanic, Black, and working-class voters, rejected the Left's chaos in 2024. Polls (e.g., Rasmussen Reports) show 68% of Americans oppose street violence as a form of protest, and 72% support deploying troops to quell riots. The Left's push for open borders and defunded police is a nonstarter for a nation that values safety and sovereignty. Trump's plan to deploy 20,000 National Guard troops to secure borders and detention centers is exactly what voters signed up for, not the Left's dystopian fantasy where "defiance" means smashing up small businesses.
The "No Kings" crowd might think their 1,550 protests will "put pressure" on Trump, but they're misreading the room. Americans didn't elect a president to coddle rioters; they elected one to crack down on them. The Left's antics, looting, vandalism, and "anti-fascist" posturing, are a stark contrast to the public's demand for stability. By turning cities into war zones, they're not building a movement; they're building Trump's 2028 campaign ads.
Here's the satire: the radical Left thinks they're staging a revolution, but they're just extras in Trump's reality show. Every "peaceful" rock thrown, every "defiant" storefront smashed, is a gift to a president who thrives on being the law-and-order guy. They're not dismantling "authoritarianism"; they're proving why it's needed. The American people, from Texas to Tallahassee, see through the Left's sanctimonious rage. They want jobs, secure borders, and cops who aren't dodging concrete. The radical Left's shape of nastiness to come? It's a self-inflicted wound, and the voters who chose Trump are laughing all the way to a safer, stronger America.

"Have we ever seen more than 1,500 simultaneous political protests all over the nation on the same day? The rioting and looting in Los Angeles has been going on for several days, but the left was never going to be satisfied with causing chaos in just one city. They want this to spread to other cities and become a national protest movement, and it appears that they are succeeding. Chaos is beginning to erupt in other areas of the country, and what the riot planners have scheduled for Saturday is truly frightening.
Bottom of Form
President Trump has already sent thousands of troops to Los Angeles, but will they also soon be needed in San Francisco?
On Monday night, approximately 9,000 crazed leftists gathered in the heart of the city…
An estimated 9,000 protesters gathered for a rally and march that started at San Francisco's 24th & Mission BART Plaza around 6 p.m. to protest the recent raids carried out by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement across California. Tracks like YG's "FDT" and Kendrick Lamar's "Alright" rang out on Mission Street, along with chants like "Move ICE, get out the way!" echoing through the crowd in a nod to Ludacris. Protesters rolled through on scooters and skates, some draped in keffiyehs, others wearing face masks and clothing scrawled with anti-fascist messages. Many were waving upside down American flags and cardboard posters bearing anti-ICE slogans, lambasting the agency's actions as unlawful and illegal.
Just like we saw in Los Angeles, the mainstream media tried to convince us that these protesters were "peaceful", but by the end of the night crimes were being committed and at least 60 protesters were arrested…
Thousands reportedly marched through San Francisco on Monday, the second day of anti-ICE protests there, the San Francisco Chronicle reported. The San Francisco Police Department stated on X that the demonstration was "overwhelmingly peaceful," but added that two small groups "broke off and committed vandalism and other acts" at the end of the night. The department said it made an unspecified number of arrests.
At least 60 people were arrested at a march in San Francisco on Sunday for failing to respond to a dispersal order, NBC Bay Area reported.
Then on Tuesday, we started to see large protests erupt in major cities all over the nation…
The protests that roiled Los Angeles over the weekend were set to spread Tuesday across the country, as activists planned demonstrations in New York, Chicago, Dallas, Atlanta and elsewhere.
I was particularly disturbed about the protests in the red state of Texas.
In Austin, over a dozen protesters were detained by authorities…
More than a dozen protesters were arrested in Austin, Texas Gov. Greg Abbott said on X early Tuesday morning.
"Peaceful protesting is legal. But once you cross the line, you will be arrested. FAFO," Abbott wrote on X, using the abbreviation for "f— around and find out."
And in Dallas, there was "a standoff that shut down a busy intersection"…
At least one person was arrested Monday in Dallas, police said, with charges pending, as protesters and law enforcement met in a standoff that shut down a busy intersection.
The Daily Texan reported that some 500 gathered at the Texas Capitol on Monday, while hundreds gathered in San Antonio, according to Spectrum News 1.
The official beginning of summer hasn't even arrived yet.
So what is our country going to look like once we get to July or August?
On Saturday, there will be over 1,550 "No Kings" protests all over the country.
I went to the official "No Kings" website, and this is what they are saying about themselves…
On June 14—Flag Day—President Trump wants tanks in the street and a made-for-TV display of dominance for his birthday. A spectacle meant to look like strength. But real power isn't staged in Washington. It rises up everywhere else.
No Kings is a nationwide day of defiance. From city blocks to small towns, from courthouse steps to community parks, we're taking action to reject authoritarianism—and show the world what democracy really looks like.
We're not gathering to feed his ego. We're building a movement that leaves him behind.
The flag doesn't belong to President Trump. It belongs to us. We're not watching history happen. We're making it.
On June 14th, we're showing up everywhere he isn't—to say no thrones, no crowns, no kings.
You may have noticed that there has been an unusual amount of hype for these protests, and "No Kings" lists dozens of prominent leftist organizations as partners.
This is an effort that is very well organized and very well funded.
Of course Saturday is also the date of President Trump's birthday parade.
On Tuesday, he told reporters that anyone that tries to disrupt his parade "will be met with very heavy force"…
President Donald Trump has issued a warning for anyone planning to protest at his birthday military parade on Saturday.
Trump told reporters, during a briefing at the White House on Tuesday, that any demonstration at the parade "will be met with very heavy force."
The president added that he hadn't heard about plans for protests at the event, but he appeared to expect some dissent on the day, adding, "these are people who hate our country."
I believe that President Trump is very serious about this.
But I also think that protesters will show up in Washington on Saturday anyway.
Prominent voices on the left seem to think that the growing protest movement will "put pressure" on President Trump, but could it be possible that they are actually playing into Trump's hands?
One administration official reportedly told NBC News that Trump and his team are "happy to have this fight"…
For the White House, this scene — Trump battling a blue state over his signature issue — is a political win, officials said. It's a nationally watched saga of the sort that has long defined his career: a made-for-TV moment.
"We're happy to have this fight," a White House official said, emphasizing that politically, the administration sees it as a winning issue.
Without a doubt, the rioting and looting in Los Angeles is making the left look bad.
If Democrats actually believe that the chaos that they are causing is going to help them in the mid-term elections, they are nuts.
And there is no way that President Trump is going to back down any time soon.
In fact, now we are being told that there is a plan "to deploy more than 20,000 additional National Guard troops to aid the Trump administration's widening crackdown on illegal immigration around the United States"…
The Pentagon is reviewing a Department of Homeland Security request to deploy more than 20,000 additional National Guard troops to aid the Trump administration's widening crackdown on illegal immigration around the United States, according to officials and documents.
Homeland Security officials want the troops to help track fugitives, quell riots at detention centers and search for unaccompanied children in remote or hostile terrain.
Meanwhile, Pentagon and Customs and Border Patrol officials have inspected military bases in recent months from New Jersey to California as potential sites to detain an expected influx of migrants.
If that plan is actually implemented, the left is not going to be happy at all.
Anyone that thought that we were going to get through Trump's first year in office without riots has not been paying attention to the bigger picture.
The left embraced societal chaos long ago, and now they want a final showdown with President Trump.
And that is precisely what they are going to get."
