Live in LA? Keep us posted

The main stream media isn’t going to cover this in any meaningful way. They’ll show burning cars and that guy on a bicycle waving the Mexican flag but little else.

Citizen reporters like you can fill in the blanks. Are there more demonstrations? How many people are involved? Where? Where are the troops deploying? Stuff like that.

If you video, don’t just show the conflicts, show us the decent Americans showing up for all of us and doing the right things.

And stay safe.

That will be news to Fox viewers thinking LA is in flames.
