**Unruly Violence: House Set to Condemn LA Riots While Democrats Hem and Haw**
In a strong bid to denounce chaos, the House of Representatives is gearing up to vote this week on a resolution condemning the recent riots that erupted in Los Angeles.
Sponsored by Rep. Young Kim, R-Calif., the resolution firmly stands against the violence inflicted on law enforcement and calls for an end to the unrest that has plagued the city.
Kim points out a clear distinction between peaceful protests, a constitutional right, and the blatant acts of vandalism, looting, and violence that have characterized recent events in California.
"We must unequivocally support law and order," she stated. “As we see unrest continue, I urge California Governor Gavin Newsom and President Trump to collaborate in restoring public safety.”
It's important to note that the recent disorder is not an isolated incident but rather a consequence of years of soft-on-crime policies advocated by the Democrats, exemplified by Governor Newsom’s lax stance on law enforcement.
The unrest escalated dangerously before the National Guard, authorized under President Trump, was deployed to restore peace amidst reports of arson, looting, and physical assaults on law enforcement.
The resolution extends gratitude to the dedicated officers of the Los Angeles Police Department, the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department, and other law enforcement agencies who bravely intervened to protect communities from violence.
Despite the troubling scenes of rioters attacking police with Molotov cocktails and engaging in looting sprees, House Democrats have exhibited a disconcerting reluctance to acknowledge the chaos.
House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries has attempted to downplay the severity of these incidents, labeling them as mere "unrest." His dismissive comments exemplify a troubling trend among Democrats, who seem to shun the notion of holding rioters accountable for their actions.
The taxpayers of Los Angeles have not remained unaffected by these events. The riots are projected to cost over $30 million, a hefty price tag for destruction that could have been avoided through consistent law enforcement and strong leadership.
As the House prepares for the resolution vote, Republicans are urging their Democratic colleagues to join them in a unified front against violence and lawlessness.
“Will Democrats stand with us against these violent riots, or continue to condone this destructive behavior because it aligns with their agenda?” questioned House Majority Leader Steve Scalise.
The upcoming vote represents a crucial moment for lawmakers to decide whether to condemn unlawful behavior or turn a blind eye in the name of political allegiance.
As the nation watches, the resolution by Rep. Young Kim serves not only as a reflection of Republican values but also as a litmus test for Democrats who must choose between siding with chaos and standing with law enforcement.
