Another school in the Los Angeles has parents really pissed off about child grooming on LGBTQ+ issues. Glendale, like Saticoy last week is a large, mostly Armenian area of Los Angeles. The parents clashed with groomer teachers earlier today outside a meeting of the Glendale Unified School District board.
Demonstrators clashed and fights erupted during a protest Tuesday evening outside a meeting of the Glendale Unified School District board, which was scheduled to vote on recognizing June as Pride Month.
Footage from AIR7 HD captured the chaos as punches were thrown in the parking lot. After the skirmishes, police in riot gear kept pro-LGBTQ+ protesters and conservative groups separated.
Three people were arrested for various charges, including allegedly using pepper spray and obstructing officers, according to the Glendale Police Department.
Close to 500 people showed up at the protest at GUSD headquarters.
“While most of the protest was peaceful, a small group of individuals engaged in behavior deemed unsafe and a risk to public safety,” police said in a statement.
A dispersal order was given just after 6 p.m. and additional police resources were requested “to ensure the safety of the Glendale community would not be compromised.”
The school board was set to adopt a resolution recognizing Pride Month, which has been done for the last four years. However, a shelter-in-place order disrupted the meeting as a brawl happened outside.
