LA Mayor Bass downplays anti-ICE riots as limited to small part of city, says ‘zero comparison’ to 1992 unrest
Democratic Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass says what is happening in her city does not compare to the 1992 Rodney King riots that followed the acquittal of white police officers who were videotaped beating the Black motorist. Despite a growing list of arrests, tens of thousands of people taking to the streets and curfew put in place, Bass told CNN’s “State of the Union” on Sunday that this is nothing like what happened more than 30 years ago.
