Soros, is that you?

Via: Los Angeles Times:

Dozens of demonstrators were arrested during a second day of protests in California on Thursday as demonstrators from the Bay Area to Los Angeles took to the streets forcefully denouncing President-elect Donald Trump.

In Los Angeles, 29 people were arrested overnight for impeding traffic when hundreds of protesters poured onto the 101 Freeway downtown, LAPD officials said.

In the loud and aggressive demonstration, many chanted, “Not my president,” and “Respect all women.” The mostly young crowd marched through the city before heading onto the freeway near Alameda Street.

The pack of hundreds — many screaming against both Trump and law enforcement, others riding skateboards on the freeway — caused a traffic backup that extended for miles.

The freeway was cleared and all lanes were reopened by 4 a.m. Thursday, the California Highway Patrol said.

In Santa Ana, an estimated 650 demonstrators marched to Bristol Street and McFadden Avenue, where they squared off with police. A brick was thrown into a police cruiser, two other vehicles were damaged and two businesses were vandalized, said Santa Ana police Cmdr. Phil Craft.

Officers fired bean bags to disperse the crowd, and 10 people were arrested, he said. The Orange County Sheriff’s Department assisted police with the crowd, officials said.

    This guy is hysterical. He rips up someone’s sign, and has an evil laugh while calling them puny children who can’t vote.

    As Anthony Freda writes at Washington’s Blog:

    To the protestors: My friends and I missed you when we were protesting the bombing of hospitals and illegal wars. We missed you at Occupy Peace and the other anti-war rallies we attended and helped organize over the last 8 years.
    I have not seen you working to expose the destruction of our civil liberties or the illegal spying on citizens that Obama promised to stop.
    I doubt very much that you have donated to or volunteered to work for anti-war and pro-liberty groups who are fighting to stop senseless wars before they start and restore our basic freedoms. (Like I have)
    It’s been lonely out there.  I guess you have just been very busy the last 8 years.
