Hundreds of protesters who spent July 4 in downtown Los Angeles opposed the migrant attacks that shook the area and the migrant raids that were approved this week to continue the federal funds. Many on the street said they are skipping barbecues and fireworks this year. They marched out of the federal buildings, housed the immigration court and waving signs through Orvera Street. Several police officers were monitoring the protests, but kept their distance during the rally and lasted several hours. “There is no better occupation! There is no more deportation!” the protesters chanted. In federal buildings, soldiers lined up from shoulder to shoulder, protecting their property with shields and guns.
