A Man From Compton Hurls Concrete at Federal Agents—And the Left Cheers
When law and order break down, American communities suffer. That’s exactly what happened last June, when chaos took over the streets of Paramount, right outside Los Angeles. Elpidio Reyna, a 41-year-old man from Compton, decided to turn a protest into a full-blown riot, hurling concrete, throwing rocks, and lighting fires in the middle of the street—all aimed at law enforcement officers just trying to do their jobs. One federal officer left bleeding after being hit with shattered glass. This wasn’t some harmless “demonstration.” This was an attack—plain and simple—on the people sworn to protect us.
Let’s not dance around it: Violence against law enforcement isn’t free speech. It’s criminal, and it’s dangerous. Yet time and again, the radical left shrugs its shoulders, makes excuses, and blames the cops for daring to enforce the law. While Reyna sits in federal custody awaiting a hefty sentence—up to 20 years behind bars—you can be sure progressive activists are already busy painting him as the victim, not the violent thug he actually is.
Federal officers from agencies like Customs and Border Protection were teaming up for a lawful operation that day. They faced a mob intent on stopping them—lighting fires, blocking roads, and launching whatever they could find at marked vehicles. All in the name of resisting border security, no less. What message does this send to the hardworking men and women who wear the badge? That American law, order, and sovereignty mean nothing? That criminals can run wild as long as they shout the right slogans?
This isn’t just about one lawless protestor from Compton. This is the direct result of years of Democrats demonizing law enforcement, letting criminals off easy, and placing the interests of open-borders activists above American safety. The result? More violence, more disrespect for authority, and more good officers injured for simply doing their jobs.
The only thing that stopped Reyna from killing someone was dumb luck. Had he succeeded, would the mainstream media have even blinked? Or would they have blamed the officer for being there at all? Americans should be furious that this kind of violence is now treated as normal “protest.” It’s time to back the blue, defend our borders, and remind anarchists and the professional protest class: Attack our law enforcement, and you’ll go to prison where you belong. The only question left is, when will liberals stop coddling criminals and start standing up for real justice?
