Photos from the Santa Monica BLM Protests and Looting
 

All shot yesterday afternoon. The protesters were on Ocean Avenue by the pier, and the cops put so much manpower to contain what was actually a peaceful protest, they left the downtown shopping area open to gangs of looters. A total police fail, IMHO.

Some of dem dere proud boys. Musta shaved dem beards oft. Can't wait to shoot some kid.

Cute grieving gal . . . very stagy.

Thought the same

My wife has been out, decked out in full gear carrying a rifle and lots of pepper spray.

She's out right now and will be most of the night. I'm hoping she gets to crack some skulls while getting paid triple time plus covid hazard bonus. :1orglaugh

Mea culpa: my years shooting porn have developed my eye for hot women... the girl in the photo after that one looks like a cutie too, even though you can only see her eyes.

And I was trying to NOT shoot the hot women in the crowd as others see my photos, and I don't want it to seem like I'm fixated on the babes and not the news.

All this photos and videos I saw from local stuff was all young kids and everything seems staged for social media. Knowing people who went out specifically just to get video of the destruction, this doesn't surprise me.

Making English teachers proud everywhere. :thumbsup

Good shots.

What gets me is these looters don't even seem to care they're being photographed and video'd while they're smashing their way into stores. Years ago they'd go after someone with a camera.

Nowadays they really don't seem to give a damn about anything.

I am calling you bluff. Pix of the wife or it didn't happen.

What a mess.... :( :helpme

All these years of him talking about his cop wife and now This?

You should promise to leave forever if he does

Funny...

Obviously he was not arrested.

Quite the contrary! It is actually commendable to never loose an eye for beauty.

Radical chicness indeed . . .

once an asshole - always an asshole :2 cents:

I see mostly white people sitting protesting. But looting crown looks much....... how would I say it nicely - darker?

:1orglaugh

Just went to a protest in Orlando. Marched from city hall to the OPD building. Overall, a good peaceful protest with the exception of a few chants hating on police officers. :thumbsup

So many hot girls there dammit

Not sure that I knew that you were in LA.

Great pics!

I have never seen so many cell phones

There were more cell phones at this Trump rally in Phoenix, February 19th. At least, I hope they're cell phones, otherwise this photo has a distinctly Nuremburg Rally vibe.
