definitely cancel. Paris has Disney as well and you don't need to worry getting shot 🤷🏼‍♀️

Yeah Cali is our last western Disney park to tick off, bit of a bucket list thing. Plus we wanna go and do other stuff there too, but I'll see how it goes before booking I guess.

I really hope this spirals into BLM 2020 2.0. We need to show these people that we mean business. Enough is enough.

It was as there were multiple protests going on across the LA area in different cities however, the national guard never came...:saladga:

Anaheim (where the park is) is around 30 miles from LA. You can fly into SNA (John Wayne) airport and bypass LAX. You'll be fine at Disney. 

The main issues are a) the risk of being detained at immigration/customs entering the country; b) whether you want to give your money to the US right now.

Scary stuff... I'm in the process of booking a trip from UK to LA next year to visit Disney etc, not sure if to hold off? 

Id hold off too honestly and I live in LA...this administration is beyond volatile and chaotic...day to day we have no idea what hes gonna say or do and things nationwide are becoming more unhinged and violent with these ICE raids, economy on verge of a recession, and political violence from terrorists, etc...

Id say wait at least until Trump leaves office (hopefully)

As far as I can tell, the Marines have not been deployed (he threatened to) and the Mayor of LA said that the NG had not been deployed either (info is fluid and inconsistent, so I could be wrong here)

And the libs are right; guns should be heavily regulated and bans should happen. 

At the end of the day, if citizens turn their arms to the government and the government sends in other weapons of war, citizens' guns aren't going to be able to stop anything. 

If they use asymmetric and guerilla warfare effectively, an insurgency in California can be very bad press for Trump, especially if tax paying, voting US citizens get hurt in the process.  Do you really see the US military dropping bombs on US soil?

Stand in the light, cast your shadow.

US Bombs have dropped on US soil before against citizens more than once. Citizens have been black bagged, held indefinitely, and deported, and imprisoned without due process. If REAL non-peaceful measures were taken against the government with this Trump administration in power? I think its possible. Maybe not probable but not an impossibility. 

This is my Hannah Montana™️ lipgloss.
