Minutes before, there were more than 20 kids playing — then, the MILITARY comes through. The SECOND I heard about this, I went to the park to speak to the person in charge to tell them it needed to end NOW. Absolutely outrageous.

This is for city departments, city employees to understand what their rights are, meaning that you can’t just allow people to come in and run roughshod.
What we have experienced over these last few weeks has just been shocking. As the city attorney mentioned yesterday, seeing troops, some on horseback ride through a children’s summer camp, disrupting that, traumatizing the kids.
I just spoke with many of the workers who were trapped. Thank you to all of our brave first responders who acted immediately. You are LA’s true heroes.
