For the fourth consecutive day, protests continue against the decision of President Donald Trump to forcibly deport those it called trouble makers and enemies of America.
The protests had started in Los Angeles, when American officials began the mass forced deportations of foreigners Trump had accused of harming the security of America.
In response to the protests, Trump, without the consent of the Governor of California as required by law, ordered the deployment of 2,000 National Guards to the area.
But that decision apparently backfired, with more persons joining the protests, which became violent when several driverless cars were torched on the second day of the protests.
In response, Trump deployed additional National Guards, 2,000 by official accounts, and 700 Marines.
The deployment of Marines, who, like the National Guards, are trained for battle ground situations, has raised great public concerns and helped spread the protests to other parts of the country.
By dawn today, more cities, across the country, including Seattle, Manhattan, Dallas, San Francisco, Boston and Chicago, had been affected, with residents pouring into the streets to join.
The protesters are angry at the forced deportation of foreigners, most picked during raids, to their ancestral countries.
The forced deportation policy kicked in at a time that the Trump government, via an Executive Order, banned citizens from 12 countries, from entering America.
A partial ban was also imposed on 7 (seven) other countries under the policy that became effective on Monday (yesterday).
Most of the countries affected by the partial and full ban are in Latin America, Asia and Africa.
Trump had said the policy was subject to review every three months (90 days).
