Congresswoman Young Kim and Congressman Jimmy Gomez Discuss National Guard Deployment in Los Angeles

But what we're seeing right now, the images that we're seeing, people throwing rocks at cars and including AD police cars setting streets on fire, these are un American and unacceptable.

So sending National Guard was not targeted at peaceful protesters. (02:16–02:26)
