National Guard clashes with protesters in L.A. – James O’Brien reacts | LBC

James O’Brien reacts to the scenes in Los Angeles where immigration enforcement protests have turned fiery in clashes with the national guard. Donald Trump deployed 2,000 troops to the city in a bid to quash largely peaceful protests over the weekend, who deployed tear gas as officers dressed in riot gear lined the streets. Protesters were seen filling the streets in response to mass deportations across the state, with tear gas deployed on Sunday afternoon as officers in riot gear lined the streets. James sees this as a ‘fascistic’ move by the president, and that “he’s not just trying to silence dissent, but trying to kill it”. James believe this is a clear inidcation that Trump ‘wants violence’ with the decision to ‘shoot dissenters’.

Behind the Scenes of Discrimination: Tommy Robinson’s Hawksmoor Experience

Go to: https://www.urbanscoop.news/boycott-hawksmoor/ In a recent and deeply troubling incident, Tommy Robinson and his friends were asked to leave Hawksmoor restaurant—after being welcomed in, seated, and served drinks and starters. Tommy and his friends were behaving respectfully, no one was intoxicated, and there were no complaints from fellow diners. The decision to eject them came from a manager, citing that staff “felt uncomfortable” with their presence. But this vague explanation rings hollow in the face of what appears to be a clear-cut case of politically motivated discrimination.
