SALT LAKE CITY (ABC4) — The first of a series of protests against President Trump’s immigration policies across the state of Utah began Thursday in Salt Lake City at Washington Square Park.
This is an “emergency solidarity protest” organized by PSL Salt Lake in support of the anti-ice protests in Los Angeles that began over the weekend.
It began at 6 p.m. and there were police officers in the crowd handing out flyers with “demonstration guidance,” a list of ways to make sure the protest remains peaceful and there are no problems, such as no acts of violence, no property damage, no blocking roadways, etc. The handout also included the laws that protect first amendment demonstrations.
Additional “No Kings” protests have been planned in cities across the state on Saturday, including Salt Lake City, Ogden, Provo, Moab and St. George.
Salt Lake City Police Department told ABC4.com Wednesday that they expect the protests to be safe and lawful and that their first priority is the safety of demonstrators. However, SLCPD also said that they will not tolerate any violence or destruction.
