“People have not had an outlet for justice,” Steinberg said, adding that new district attorneys need to be elected and prosecute cops accused of misconduct.Alvardo, 21, lives in Santa Clarita and drove to the L.A. rally because she is “sick and tired of waking up every morning” to news about police killings. “I can’t compare myself to what they’re going through,” she said of being black.“But I’m here to support them.
By 2 p.m., more than 1,000 marchers made their way from Pan Pacific Park near the Grove shopping center and began marching west down 3rd Street toward Beverly Hills. Police helicopters whirred overhead, while people standing on the sidewalks cheered on the marchers. Some marchers chanted “No Justice, No Peace!”But overall the crowd was peaceful and there were no acts of violence or vandalism. Some bystanders even offered bottles of water to the marchers and motorists honked their support.
chrisfarnsworth Now we're talkin'
Protesters are about to lose the support of liberal Hollywood. As long as they were destroying some neighborhoods in Minneapolis, Hollywood is behind them. Now celebrities are in jeopardy, that may be a game changer. There is no question this is an organised national effort...
They have arrested the officer. Everyone agreed that it was wrong. What justice is looting and burning down buildings going to accomplish?
Did the protesters find justice in the Nordstrom?
Headline correction...rioters not protesters

This is so unnecessary. First there is a lockdown in order that everyone was so worried to respect...to save people’s lives. Second, responding to violence with more violence, will eventually land you in the cell next to that cop’s.
They aren't demanding justice... they are demanding Louis Vuitton and Gucci handbags marked off full price. LOOTING!!
Yeh wait till the looters get to Rodeo Drive.
EnoughAlready LAPD needs to use ultimate force on rioting car burners, Looters This cannot be allowed to continue.MartialLaw needed. Plus there's a real danger of Covid19 coronavirus spreading due to the complete lack of distancing & respect for the public at large.
Then on to Malibu? 👀🔥🚨
Wish George Floyd can see the amazing thing he has started. RIP
They’re demanding justice? From whom? Beverly Hills police? They have nothing to do with the incident which has these irrational mobs so agitated.
Nice social distancing. COVID is over then, right?
Actually, they were quiet, holding signs
Hope all these celebrities keep vailing them out of jail!
Hey Calif LIBS your friends are coming into your town. The protesting you support want to attack you now. Beverly Hills
Because LA was where he lived. 🤡
Tell the whole story be real reporters. Press was minimal when we started.
Boy, Garcetti is just the most feckless mayor ever! And this guy thinks he is Presidential? Ha
Lemme guess. Going to make a quick stop onto Rodeo Drive
Yelling “eat the rich” has nothing to do with George Floyd.
elprezdeLA
This definitely did not happen, I was there
News flash loonies... George is getting justice! That cop is going away for murder! So stop acting like criminals and looting...
March towards the White House protestors, not to shop owners who have no skin in that game.
This now has nothing whatsoever to do with George Floyd.
Bullshit. They don’t want ‘justice’, they want looted flat-screen TVs and high top sneakers. Pure vermin.
Beverly Hills had nothing to do with his death
There are protests everywhere. Across the US. In solidarity. And props to them for going out while Covid is still a thing and trying to bring awareness to what they deal with daily. Peaceful protests didn’t work. Trying a new tactic I guess.
Give them a map of the stars homes and let them protest by the ultra liberal out of touch Hollywierders..... BeverlyHills
I was at the intersection when this happened. The vast majority didn't want anything to do with it, backed away, regrouped to march peacefully again a block further down
everything was peaceful until cops showed up. i was there.
OMG.
Who was the guy in the, black convertible, Rolls Royce?🤣
Where is Maxine Waters? She should go downtown to speak some common sense to those protesters who start fires. That's not being peaceful.
Lots of libtards getting red pilled today!
Everyone protest peacefully! Burning vehicles and buildings is not peaceful. Showing violence will not help the situation. Be safe
Looks like some hooliganism mixed in there, too.
ONLY the peaceful marchers are protestors! The ones rioting & looting are nothing but low-life, low-IQ Anarchists & ANTIFA TERRORISTS!
I hate to break this shocking news to those low IQ protestors but, George Floyd was killed in Minneapolis, that means that the County of Los Angeles and state of California have Zero jurisdiction in the state of Minnesota. So why are you idiots destroying city property?
Looting the expensive goods in the name of George?
Why people such uneducated try to vandalised? I know you are walk out for the justice but where's your brain? Thank God i was in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia didn't happening like your country. I hope Cops follow the SOP do not kill black, hispanic and all races.
LA should be giving rewards to people who get pictures of the faces and actions of those doing destruction. ericgarcetti
this has nothing to do with George Floyd anymore! Has everything to do with criminal getting a reason to loot!
Uh oh-Beverly Hills don't take too kindly to these shenanigans.
All of the sudden the Hollywood elite want the protests to come to an end.
LA County Sheriff’s swear to protect Beverly Hills
Rollin down Rodeo with a shotgun............
I want to say CONGRATULATIONS to the ASTRONAUTS that left Earth today!!!!!!!!! GOOD CHOICE!!!!!!
I guess they are going after the Hollywood elite now.
The governor will not allow white neighborhoods to burn. I can assure you of that.
What more “justice” do they want? The guy lost his job and was arrested and charged with murder. WTF?! Stop destroying people’s businesses for Christ’s sake! 🤦♂️
they don't give a shit
'Protesters march towards Beverly Hills...'
theyll be taking your income/stimulus away to pay for the stupid stuff your causing
Once again anarchists want to take over. They do not care about George floyd, they just want to destroy things. Where's the justice in that?
Awful
Don't need the bailout fund from the Hollywood celebs. They can just give them cash when they come knocking down the door. Efficient. Enjoy the evening. Or gas up the jet and get out of there. See what you really stand for.
The shops of Beverly hills are filled with working class employees.
Start the bus and drive off
Liberals hurting liberals - Be careful what you create
Now it’s getting real
I think justice and justice, beyond religions, nationality and human society need to be good, however, now the criminals should be punished so that such Be safe from incidents.
They're demanding social media clout and TV coverage.
Children, if you like I'll explain why this is another police riot, and totally avoidable.
Protesters seeking 4 'justice' in USA and what that means 4 real?!!! huh?!!!
Protest, but do not vandalize our city!
Now let’s see how the Hollywoods like it. Bet they lock themselves inside their walled mansions and double security.
House arrest Newsom. Peaceful, Conscious Change to restore our America. It does require the immediate house arrest and trial of those in State and local public office and their minions who have betrayed their oath of office to uphold the US Constitution and our rights.
The more white the 'protests' become, the more violent. These are not civil rights protestors living under police oppression, these are opportunistic thugs and baristas who hate their parents who showed up to wreak havoc.
He's a perfect excuse if Newsom or Garcetti get angry about no masks and social distancing. Tell them you're peacefully protesting.
That's super helpful to a case in minneapolis. People are so full of shit
They just want some Designer lmao
I bet the Mayor is happy to see all of these people using mass transit.
Defacing and destroying property belonging to others is not demonstrating , it's illegal , wrong and is not helping one bit .... just like it didn't help the last few times this exact same thing happened . It's just history repeating itself over and over again .
Justice and mercy seem to be the key need of this generation
Galatians 5:21 King James Version (KJV) 21 Envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.
Too bad California banned so many weapons and high round magazines, huh, Californians? These idiots come to my suburb in Oregon and they'll find themselves in a heap of hurt. Everyone in my neighborhood is well armed!
This headline is so irrepresentative of the content of the story, it's gross. From the story: 'But overall the crowd was peaceful and there were no acts of violence or vandalism. Some bystanders even offered bottles of water to the marchers and motorists honked their support.'
Around a dozen unmarked police vehicles just raced past me thru Koreatown on 3rd st towards the Beverly Grove location GeorgeFloyd
Dam, protect the Grove and the Farmers Market please God. I love that place!
Ha! People were talking abt matching to Beverly Hills, Rodeo Drive, last night..
He wasn’t killed in Beverly Hills. What are you people doing
Yes take it to Beverly Hills !
I hope Antifas set all those expensive stores on fire. 🔥 gucci dior prada
Prepare to get mowed down
There no where near Beverly Hills
Your article says there were no acts of vandalism and the protest was peaceful when even the photos accompanying the article shows buses being vandalized and the walls of the Grove tagged all over. Why the gaslighting?
Now your talking.. Protesters.. Tap those Gucci and Prada stores.
Can someone explain to me what is being protested at this point? The cop responsible for murdering George Floyd has, rightly, been arrested and charged with murder. GeorgeFloyd
ShorealoneFilms oopsie, getting too close to celebrityville. I'm getting my popcorn
Too stressful
I think that they're going to see that it's going to be pretty rough going if they keep heading west.
I can see how Democrats lose in November.
Straight into rich liberal territory.
and this is when a protest cross the line to civil unrest and rioting...
nice man. Keep going！
Trump inciting violence.
Like I really don’t under how vandalizing a bus is going to make a change.
Steve Carell should have kept that bail money to pay these looters off.
That may trigger the National Guard.
Down Rodeo
Looters!
Sunbathing = bad Rioting = good Hey liberals, is my math correct?
Makes a lot of sense. AnyExcuseToLoot
