Save Our State Rally Heads Back to Baldwin Park, CA

"In an effort to prevent violence at what is expected to be a heated protest Saturday, Baldwin Park officials said Wednesday they will ask participants on both sides to sign written pledges of nonviolence. City volunteers will pass out the pledges to protesters convening at the Baldwin Park Metrolink station. Some are expected to denounce, and others to defend, a monument that an anti-illegal immigration group claims is anti-American but that local residents say upholds the heritage of the city," the San Gabriel Valley Tribune writes.

On Saturday, the city will hand out tip sheets on public demonstration safety, advising protesters to stay off streets and drink plenty of water."

If the government does not do something about this soon and civil unrest breaks out riot gear is going to do little good. The government is even doing something as low as putting our police at risk. Support the police because i really feel sorry for them with what they have to face because the government has turned its back on them as well.
