[[Maxine Waters]], the Congresswoman for Los Angeles, had also been involved in the riots, where she gave a strongly worded speech where she essentially sided with the rioters.<ref>https://twitter.com/JackPosobiec/status/1384217591011446797</ref> This would later be repeated during the [[Derek Chauvin]] trial in [[Minneapolis]] nearly three decades later where she proceeded to give a speech to various Black Lives Matter protestors that made clear they are to riot if the jury gave any sentence to Chauvin that wasn't "guilty" in a blatant attempt at intimidating the jury into convicting Chauvin.
