In several major U.S. cities Wednesday night, protests erupted over the election of Donald Trump, with some of the rhetoric taking a disturbingly violent turn. In Los Angeles, where over a 1,000 leftists took to the streets, protesters burned an effigy of Trump and one vocal Latino woman openly called for a violent revolution.
“Our lives begin to end the day we become silent about the things that matter,” Latino protester Lily told CNN Wednesday night. “If we don’t fight, who is going to fight for us? People had to die for your freedom where we’re at today. We can’t just do rallies, we have to fight back. There will be casualties on both sides. There will be, because people have to die to make a change in this world. Trump, enough with your racism. Stop splitting families. Don’t split my family.”
