San Francisco Mayor Daniel Lurie is advocating for peaceful protesting as major anti-ICE demonstrations are set to occur, coinciding with a military parade in Washington D.C. ahead of Trump's birthday. He stressed the city’s commitment to public safety after recent violence resulted in numerous arrests and injuries. Lurie clarified that local law enforcement supports peaceful assembly while firmly opposing violence, indicating that those who engage in vandalism or violations will face legal repercussions. The protests in San Francisco will gather at Mission Dolores Park and march to Civic Center Plaza for community speeches.
"We stand united with those who are expressing themselves in a peaceful manner, in a legal manner to oppose the things they are seeing. But, as a district attorney, I have to be clear. We draw the line with people who violate the law."
"We will not tolerate violence and destructive behavior. And will never tolerate violence directed at law enforcement or city workers."
