Race Riot in LA! AP Censors the truth again!
ALIPAC Note: The Associated Press (AP) newswire service is the main way news travels across America into newspapers, radio stations, TV stations, etc… Again and again, we document the AP playing down these incidents, censoring material, and excluding key facts. The article on the top is the one broadcast by AP to the nation. It claims that the riot was gang related. Then when you read the LA Times local version of events, it indicates that the riot was race related. The AP censored the fact that students were separated by race while up to 600 students fought! While it is likely that illegal alien and drug importing gangs were involved, the scope was much larger. Many of the students at this school are illegal aliens or the children of illegal aliens.

Hundreds brawl at LA high school
Associated Press – May 9, 2008 6:34 PM ET
LOS ANGELES (AP) – Authorities say a South Los Angeles high school was locked down and then dismissed early after hundreds of students scuffled during a lunchtime brawl that left many with minor injuries.
School district spokeswoman Nadia Gonzalez says about 600 students were involved in what appeared to be a gang-related fight that started around noon Friday at Locke High School.
Campus officers broke it up and four students were arrested.
Officials said several students were injured but nobody was hospitalized.
The cause of the brawl wasn’t immediately known.
Gonzalez said the school was locked down after the battle. Students were kept in their classrooms and no parents or outsiders were allowed on campus. About 50 Los Angeles police officers, some of them in riot gear, responded to the school.

4 Students are Arrested after a Lunchtime Melee Involving as Many as 600 Students.

As many as 600 students at Locke High School fought in a lunchtime brawl that has left the campus locked down and four students arrested, police and school officials said this afternoon.
The campus was locked down after the fight broke out shortly after 1 p.m. as students were returning from lunch to their fifth-period classes. Overwhelmed school officials called Los Angeles police for help about 15 minutes later. School officials separated Latino students from Black students who had not yet made it to their next period.
“The kids were crazy, running from place to place jumping on other kids,” said Reggie Smith, a music teacher who said he ran to pull his students from the melee. “Some of my kids were crying because they were walking to class with kids and they got jumped. The officers on campus were overwhelmed. You didn’t know the kids who are good” from those trying to cause trouble, he said.
At the campus, well over a dozen LAPD cruisers were parked outside as officers investigated.
On a campus where daily fights are common, Locke football coach Wayne Crawford said today’s incident stood out.
Several Los Angeles Unified School District campuses have had brawls between black and Latino students. In 2005, Jefferson High School was the setting for weeks of clashes.
The LAPD said officials aren’t sure what prompted the disturbance.
