Notably, Angelica Salas, from the Coalition for Humane Immigrant Rights, reported that seven raids resulted in the detention of more than 45 individuals, wich she described as &#8220;random sweeps&#8221; executed without warrants. <\/p>\n<p>The protests marked a heightened response against the Trump administration&#8217;s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/hidden-history-operation-wetback-in-1953\/\" title=\"Exploring the Past: Operation Wetback in 1953\">mass deportation policies<\/a>. Advocates, including local officials like Mayor Karen Bass and Governor Gavin Newsom, condemned the raids, labeling them as cruel and irresponsible tactics that instill fear in immigrant communities. Despite the LAPD&#8217;s stated policy not to assist in mass deportations, they issued unlawful assembly alerts and maintained a heavy police presence during the protests. The situation highlighted the growing tensions surrounding immigration enforcement in California, especially in designated sanctuary cities like Los Angeles.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><\/p>\n<p><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><\/p>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-button\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-icon td-icon-mobile\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-header-search-button-mob dropdown-toggle\" data-toggle=\"dropdown\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-search-icon td-icon-search\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-button\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-icon td-icon-mobile\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<div class=\"tdb-drop-down-search\" aria-labelledby=\"td-header-search-button\">\n<div class=\"tdb-drop-down-search-inner\">\n<form method=\"get\" class=\"tdb-search-form\" action=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/\"><\/form>\n<div class=\"tdb-aj-search\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/#\" role=\"button\" aria-label=\"Search\" class=\"tdb-head-search-btn dropdown-toggle\" data-toggle=\"dropdown\"><i class=\"tdb-search-icon td-icon-search\"><\/i><\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<h1 class=\"tdb-title-text\">Anti-ICE protesters clash with police in Los Angeles after wave of raids<\/h1>\n<div><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-title-line\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<div id=\"Brid_2140866\" class=\"tpd-featured-video bridtv\"><\/div>\n<p>Several <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/ice\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">Immigration and Customs Enforcement <\/a>raids in<a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/los-angeles\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\"> Los Angeles<\/a> caused a wave of protests on Friday that continued into Saturday, which saw officers meet protesters in tactical gear and deploy tear gas.
