Democrats continued their unbroken streak of supporting riots in their own streets by voting against a resolution condemning the violence in Los Angeles.
The anti-ICE riots in LA sparked several resolutions condemning the actions taken by those who engaged in violent and unhinged tactics to show their displeasure. Rep. Earl L. “Buddy” Carter introduced one such resolution, explaining in a statement why he believes it’s important to call out the action.
“As disturbing images emerge from the violent riots in LA, including foreign nationals harming officers while waving other countries’ flags, we in Congress must make our stance perfectly clear. We back the blue, we support our ICE officers, and we will defend our cities from rioting, lawlessness, and destruction,” he said.
California Rep. Young Kim also introduced a similar resolution last week, “condemning the violent June 2025 riots in Los Angeles, California” which is to be voted on this week.
On Tuesday, the House voted and proved that opinions on vandalism and violence are split along party lines.

A whopping 206 Democrats refused to condemn, not the peaceful protests that occurred on the LA streets which would be protected by the First Amendment, but the violent acts that endangered lives and property.
A telling vote, to be sure.
Perhaps this is why a Rodney King-era “roof Korean” is advising residents of Los Angeles to arm themselves.
Tony Moon is now 53, but he remembers the violence and chaos that erupted in the 1990s. He also claims that rioters who have taken to the city streets are “astroturfed for political purposes,” says Fox News Digital.
“Thirty-three years ago, the Korean-American, then 19, was asked to join a spontaneous movement alongside other Korean-Americans who armed themselves to protect their lives and property from being destroyed by violent rioters who were upset over the verdict in a trial against officers who beat Rodney King during a traffic stop,” the outlet reported.
“When the riots occurred, it wasn’t anything that anyone foresaw obviously, but we were well aware of Rodney King and the verdict that was coming down,” Moon explained. “And when that occurred is when everything kind of popped off. The reason why I went out was because a close and good friend of mine, his older brother had a stereo shop that was on the outskirts of near Koreatown.”
“He called me Thursday evening after the radio announcement asking for volunteers to come to the community, to defend the community. And he told me that his brother’s store might be threatened from the fires and the looting that was slowly traveling up north from the south, like South Central and South LA.”
He recalled the tense atmosphere at the time, saying it’s far different than what he is seeing today.
“The sentiment was much different then than it is now. Now it’s all manufactured. And not only that, but there’s no true grassroots support from any of the communities. You know, it’s what I would say [is] part two of BLM/Antifa from 2020 that’s being carried over,” Moon noted. “But it doesn’t have the same traction and support that it did back in 2020 with defunding the police, [and with] Black Lives Matter. I don’t see that, and what they’re looking for is, they’re looking for someone to martyr. They’re looking for a death. They’re looking for the next George Floyd.”
For anyone fearful that the violence may strike too close to home, Moon says it’s time to invest in a firearm.
“If it’s a riot or if there’s any sort of mayhem, social chaos going on in your neighborhood, invest in firearms. I mean, support the Second Amendment. Buy a gun, buy a rifle. I mean, the most easiest weapon to shoot is a shotgun. So invest in something like that and learn how to shoot it and be proficient with it, so that way it becomes part of your defense, whether it’s for your home or your business.”
