I have been in contact, though, with the head of Customs and Border Patrol, who essentially was leading that effort in the park.
I've been in communication with him, basically, you know, talking about what is the mission here?
That's what I was asking him, because when I arrived in the park, I talked to the soldiers.
I said, who is in charge here?
I want to talk to who's in charge.
And they put me on with Greg Bovino, who is in charge of
Customs and Border Control, and I asked him, what is your mission here?
What is your purpose?
Had a difficult time hearing him, but what I think he said is it was to address crime.
Well, the crime that has taken place in that park, and that park has been problematic, what is the Los Angeles Police Department for?
We have a police department.
Crime is down 40% in that park.
Now, is it still a problem?
Yes, but it's a problem that we can manage, just like the protests.
Don, they painted a picture like it was 1992 in LA where there were riots all over the city.
I called it in 92 a rainbow riot because it took place everywhere and every color was involved.
This was protests that at the end of the protest devolved with a couple hundred people, you know, committing chaos like happens after a Laker championship.
And they vandalized properties.
And then at the worst, several stores were looted one time.
I called the curfew.
