demonstrations Sunday in downtown Long Beach. Police pointed rubber bullet guns to get crowds to back away.

This man stood with his child most of the time until the police started using concussive grenades but they never fired on him but did occasionally pointed their rubber bullet guns towards him.

A lot of the pictures I can still recall
Many of the images did stick with me the good and the bad
Glad to move on from 2020 and forward in to 2021
