For the third consecutive day, large protests erupted across Los Angeles County in response to ongoing federal immigration raids targeting working class communities in the most populous county in the United States. Sunday’s demonstrations were larger than those on the previous two days, reflecting mounting outrage among broader layers of the population.

The scenes emerging from Los Angeles resemble an active war zone. As during the mass protests following the 2020 police murder of George Floyd, police are indiscriminately firing on protesters, journalists and bystanders alike. Video posted online by on-the-ground reporters shows police and California National Guard soldiers firing “less lethal” rounds at close range, significantly increasing the risk of serious injury.
