Inauguration Day
Demonstrators in Red Bluff show appreciation for local law enforcement
RED BLUFF, Calif. — A few dozen people gathered in front of the Red Bluff Police Department on Friday to show support for local law enforcement.
The people demonstrating said they just want a way to show local law enforcement they appreciate all they do in these trying times when police are in the spotlight. The organizer says it’s important to note that this is not in response to the Black Lives Matter demonstration that happened in the same spot the week before.
Aside from a few angry passersby, the evening was peaceful and several cars gave a supportive honk.
A member of the group said they try to show their support for law enforcement every year. They heard morale was low at the department and decided it would be a good time to show some appreciation.
