LA City Councilman: LA Antifa and Fellow Left-Wing Activists are the Real Insurrectionists

LA City Councilman Paul Koretz

I never cease to be amazed at how things are turning for the better for us, even here in deep blue, deeply depressing Los Angeles County.

The city of Los Angeles has passed more ordinances to push away the homeless from endangering children and parents near schools.

Rick Caruso is building momentum to be a real, law-and-order, pro-citizen mayor.

And now, one of the city councilmembers who voted for the expanded ban on homeless encampments had the courage to call out Antifa, Black Lives Matter, and other left-wing agitator hate groups in the city.

Check out what retiring City Councilman Paul Koretz wrote about the hostile, violent, disruptive militants who shut down the LA City Council meeting earlier this week:

BREAKING: Councilmember & City Controller candidate Paul Koretz sent a campaign email comparing community members speaking against 41.18 expansion to the violent January 6 INSURRECTIONISTS!

Appalling and irresponsible. Resignation isn't enough — it's time to end his career. pic.twitter.com/AFNR0OaB2S

On the contrary, Koretz should lauded and applauded for calling out the real insurrectionists in our midst! Not the freedom-loving patriots in Washington DC, who were lured into the US Capitol, only to be vilified, arrested, and deprived of life, liberty, and dignity.

The real insurrection has been gobbling up the peaceful public square from frustrated and outraged Angelenos who want clean streets, safe neighborhoods, and good opportunities for themselves and their families. 

Here are the key portions from Koretz' latest fundraising email:

Jane Nguyen, campaign manager for Kenneth Mejia for City Controller, urges people to show up at City Hall and reposts video of insurrection in celebration.

Yes, that is exactly what Antifa and other left-wing activists have been doing all over Los Angeles. They are the true insurrectionists, looking to overthrow good government in LA.

Koretz' team repeats that the school district superintendent and parents throughout the city urged the city council to take swift action against the homeless encampments that were taking up space, building up around the schools:

Parents and school staff have also spoken out in favor of the changes, saying they have observed erratic and even violent behavior on our near school campuses.

This issue bears repeating: Antifa, Black Lives Matter, and other cultural Marxist hate groups in the greater Los Angeles area care about virtue-signaling for the "unhoused" rather than caring for parents and children. Sickening! TRUE INSURRECTION!

Koretz' email continues:

His [Kenneth Mejia's] campaign staff are the same folks that disrupted a Mayoral debate at a synagogue in the Valley, shouting obscenities at Karen Bass, Kevin de Leon and others.

Sounds like insurrection to me.

Mejia is commited to an agenda of shouting down opponents and using divisiveness and bullying to circumvent the normal legislative process.

Kenneth Mejia for Controller? Really? Is this the person we want having the keys to the City Hall?

I really have to hand it to Councilman Paul Koretz. Normally, I would have no interest either way in whoever wins the City Controller spot in LA City Council politics. Not much good comes from the political class of Democrat bureaucrats, career politicians, and activists. However, if Koretz and company are not afraid to call out the Antifa-BLM-Berniecrat-Marxist hordes in the city hellbent on shutting down public comment and civil discourse in the city, i.e. non-stop insurrection, then I say good for him!
