Public outrage: CHP officers cleared by Orange County DA in fatal shooting of unarmed Latino teen in Fullerton

Bullet holes on Villanueva's pickup truck

The Orange County DA's office reached an unbelievable conclusion last Friday that claimed a pair of undercover, plain-clothes CHP officers, involved in the fatal shooting of 19-year-old Pedro Erick Villanova in a dark, residential cul-de-sac in Fullerton on July 3, were not criminally culpable for their actions.

In a letter written by Senior Deputy DA Brock Zimmon and Assistant District Attorney Ebrahim Baytieh, which was suspiciously released over the weekend to avoid any press attention last week, the Orange County DA's office concluded that undercover CHP detectives involved in the shooting, Sergeant Jon Grover Cleveland of Santa Clarita and Officer Richard J. Henderson of Long Beach, were justified in using deadly force by shooting into an occupied and moving vehicle driven by an unarmed Latino teenager, Pedro Villanueva, on the eve of Independence Day last year.

#DisruptJ20 anti-Trump inauguration protest marches set for Washington, D.C. and California on January 20th

The time and date are set for the first of many #J20 anti-Trump inauguration marches across the country

The first of at least four #DisruptJ20 organized protest events are set to take place in Los Angeles, California on inauguration day, January 20th, from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. at 800 West Olympic Boulevard, Los Angeles, CA 90015 at the crossroads of South Figueroa Street in Downtown Los Angeles in front of L.A. Live, under the hashtags of #UnitedAgainstHate and #CAforProgress to protest President-elect Donald Trump's inauguration as President of the United States.

This protest is organized by a group called CA for Progress and is calling for a "United Against Hate-Inauguration March" against President-elect Donald Trump.

At least three other protest marches from an alliance of pro-immigrant rights groups in Los Angeles are also planning to march in downtown Los Angeles all on the same day.

The California Latino Congreso is calling for in inauguration day rally at 1 p.m. at the corner of Broadway and Olympic Boulevard in downtown Los Angeles.

Villanueva family still without answers six months after the CHP shot and killed their unarmed son

It's been six months since the shooting death of an unarmed teenager by the California Highway Patrol, and we are still no closer to finding out the truth about what happened in a quiet, blind residential cul-de-sac in Fullerton, Calfornia when two unidentified men, who turned out to be undercover CHP officers, opened fire on two unarmed teens on that fateful night on July 3, one hour before Independence Day.

Unidentified undercover CHP officers shot from behind the cover of the
unidentified and unmarked squad car at the red pickup truck driven by
Pedro Villanueva as the truck tried to get by the squad car at slow
speeds through only escape route available to the frightened teens

What we do know is this: The two unidentified plain clothes CHP officers in question opened fire on and killed 19-year-old Pedro Villanueva and injured his 18-year-old passenger, Francisco Orozco, on July 3, after chasing them from a so-called "sideshow"—an unauthorized hot rod, street car event where car enthusiasts showed off their trucks and some drivers performed stunts like donuts—in an isolated swap meet parking lot in Santa Fe Springs, California, a suburb of the City of Los Angeles.

It should be made clear that the sideshow wasn't a race and wasn't held on any public streets; however, the California Highway Patrol made it their priority to secretly surveil the event as part of a statewide crack down on illegal hot rod car shows, and soon after, they shut down the sideshow, sending participants and attendees of the event needlessly scattering to the wind.

#DisruptJ20: A call to disrupt Donald J. Trump's Presidential inauguration

On Friday January 20, 2017, designated as "Black Friday," President-elect Donald J. Trump will be formally inaugurated as your 45th President of the United States of America.

A call for a general strike across the country on January 20, 2016, Inauguaration Day

Several anti-Trump activists, including the likes of liberal documentary filmmaker Michael Moore, have put out a call to all protesters throughout the country, through the internet, to go to Washington, D.C. on that day to disrupt the inauguration ceremonies, calling the protest event, #DisruptJ20.

The purpose of the protests is twofold: 1. to make clear to the whole world that the vast majority of the people of United States do not support his presidency or consent to his rule, and 2. to disrupt the inauguration ceremonies to the point that Trump will have to be inaugurated behind closed doors, if at all.
