They storm City Hall, scream in the faces of cops and drag babies into the chaos \u2014 using them like shields.<\/p>\n
Los Angeles\u2019 loudest agitators brought their fury to a historic Mid-Wilshire synagogue this week, spewing hateful rhetoric and threatening attendees as they tried to enter a community event.<\/p>\n
Dramatic video posted on Instagram painted the scene: protesters packed outside Wilshire Boulevard Temple chanting \u201cFree Palestine\u201d and unleashing a volatile confrontation that left families shaken and police scrambling to keep order Wednesday.<\/p>\n

The activists behind the synagogue protest were no mystery. They are the same far-left disruptors who\u2019ve spent years blowing up City Hall meetings<\/a>, screaming at LAPD, stalking officials, and blasting \u201cF\u2014K LAPD\u201d and \u201cF\u2014K ICE\u201d across their social feeds.<\/p>\n The chaos outside Wilshire Boulevard Temple\u2019s Audrey Irmas Pavilion came from a coordinated push by People\u2019s City Council Los Angeles, Koreatown for Palestine, and the Palestinian Youth Movement \u2014 groups known for street confrontations, aggressive online mobilization, and open hostility toward law enforcement.<\/p>\n Their target: a community security forum featuring speakers tied to Israeli police and Elbit Systems. Protesters accused Elbit of aiding Israeli military operations and providing surveillance tools to ICE \u2014 claims repeated on flyers and banners reading \u201cElbit Out of Los Angeles\u201d and \u201cGenociders Not Welcome.\u201d<\/p>\n Their call to action was blunt: \u201cALL OUT AT AUDREY IRMAS PAVILION\u2026 BRING YOUR NOISEMAKERS. SHUT THEM DOWN!!\u201d<\/p>\n That came from People\u2019s City Propaganda, a PCC-affiliated account.<\/p>\n Roughly 20 protesters clustered at the entrance and later inside, masks, keffiyehs, raised voices. Videos show them confronting attendees, including parents trying to get children inside.<\/p>\n And then came a familiar face: Jason Reedy. Baby strapped to him. Again.<\/p>\n A woman filming gasped when she spotted the baby, but carrying an infant into confrontations has become part of Reedy\u2019s brand.<\/p>\n Jason Reedy a People\u2019s City Council member is one of L.A.\u2019s most aggressive protest figures. X\/@AxumSelassie<\/p>\n For years he\u2019s marched into Police Commission meetings with his infant son, shouting expletives. One commissioner once said it \u201cmade him sick\u201d to watch<\/a>. Weeks later, then LAPD Chief Michel Moore suggested that Reedy was using his child as a shield from criticism.<\/p>\n Reedy shrugged it off. \u201cThe commission enforces rules on the people who attend,\u201d he fired back, \u201cnot on police who commit acts of violence.\u201d His philosophy: \u201cF\u2014 decorum.\u201d<\/p>\n Before becoming an activist, Reedy said he was working to address food insecurity. It was the George Floyd uprising in 2020 that got in on the protest path.<\/p>\n Protester Jason Reedy seen in an undated photo. Jason Reedy<\/p>\n \u201cI think being Black in America radicalized me,\u201d Reedy told Spectrum News<\/a>. \u201cI think I was awake, I wasn\u2019t up out of bed yet.\u201d<\/p>\n People\u2019s City Council\u2019s feeds are a nonstop torrent of anti-police vitriol, \u201cF\u2014 LAPD,\u201d \u201cF\u2014ICE,\u201d and calls to \u201cFREE ANT AND FREE THEM ALL!\u201d when protesters were jailed. During this summer\u2019s ICE demonstrations, PCC accused an LAPD officer of threatening people and ended the post with: \u201cFuck these pigs.\u201d<\/p>\n A woman filming protestors gasped when she spotted Jason Reedy carrying a baby. Instagram\/@thatkoreanjew<\/p>\n They also film and expose plainclothes officers. \u201cWATCH THE WATCHERS!\u201d they wrote. \u201cCaught 2 undercover LAPD pigs stalking protesters!\u201d<\/p>\n Their tactics are open-book.<\/p>\n During June 12 protests against ICE, PCC posted: \u201cEnough with the \u2018peaceful protest\u2019 chants please\u2026 the cops are shooting at you and beating you either way.\u201d<\/p>\n In the comments, supporters instructed followers to build makeshift shields out of plywood: instagram\/therobinsonspace\/<\/p>\n Another PCC directive advised \u201cstaggered disruptions\u201d at public meetings: \u201cPop off in different parts of the room\u2026 Make it difficult to carry on.\u201d<\/p>\n Inside City Hall, it often works. Meetings collapse into disorder. Commissioners lose control. Police clear activists out. Reedy refuses to sit, refuses to quiet down, refuses to play by rules he doesn\u2019t accept.<\/p>\n LAPD arrested one person for battery and another for vandalism on Wednesday.<\/p>\n Barry Shore, a Jewish author<\/a>, business consultant and podcaster with more than 6 million downloads \u2014 told The Post: \u201cSad contemporary America. Paid protestors. Street theater that turns violent, in your face, and unable or unwilling to engage in dialogue. They are uneducated ideologues who believe the worst about whatever issue they\u2019re paid to yell about.\u201d<\/p>\n instagram\/peoplescitycouncil<\/p>\n
\u201cWear that on the front or back of you depending on which is facing the pigs.\u201d<\/p>\n
