Summary
Recent protests in Los Angeles over immigration enforcement have led to unrest, reminiscent of the 1992 riots following the Rodney King verdict, but on a far smaller scale. President Trump mobilized 4,100 National Guard troops and 700 Marines amid opposition from local officials, with legal challenges arising over the use of federal troops. Unlike the deadly 1992 violence, current protests have remained largely peaceful, confined to a small area, with no fatalities reported, though there have been arrests and injuries among both protesters and police due to clashes.
