This is happening in 2 places in LA county. This isn’t happening in all of LA. There are other protests. And these ones were originally peaceful. Total areas of riots: less than 20 square miles. The exact amount of area affected is not readily available. The two areas are Downtown LA (~5.8sq mi), and Paramount (~4.8sq mi)/ Compton (~10.0 sq mi) of LA county. LA city is 503 sq mi. LA county is 4,753 sq mi. For reference, NYC is 302 sq mi
Where did you see me saying I’m okay with them destroying homes or small businesses? I’m not saying it’s not happening, but I’ve only seen people target corporations I was trying to inform people it’s not as big as the news is making it out to be. It’s not insignificant, but it’s not like 10% of the city is being destroyed. So it is a small area considering. 20.3 sq miles is the MAXIMUM amount of area where this is happening. IMO it’s probably about a fourth of that
