Chaos and mayhem took over in Los Angeles on Friday night as pro-abortion activists rioted over the Supreme Court’s decision to overturn Roe v. Wade and hand control of abortion laws back to the states.
Less-lethal munitions were used in an attempt disperse the crowd, but many of the protesters seemed determined to fight the police.
