It’s California! They were gonna burn it down, either way!

Celebrating a fake championship.

They just wanted to riot again

It's sad because it takes away from the message that the peaceful protesters are out there fighting for

Nothing says congratulations like looting a tv

This shows how being locked up with no program does not rehabilitate but only makes ppl worse. Shelter in has made ppl crazy.

They’re laker fans what do you expect 🗑

Antifa are Lakers fans? Who Knew... 🌻

I don’t understand why people need to destroy things when they are celebrating. Then they destroy things when they are mad. WTH? Go home and destroy your own stuff.

Guess they are immune to Covid too 🤡

Delinquents.

Wow.... Who gives a shit? Pro sports has been ruined by millionaire cry baby’s.

Wow, image that...smh

Sure, arrest the Lakers fans but not the rioters, looters, and murderers. Let the harassment continue at restaurants and in neighborhoods, but as long as we have the Lakers fans locked up, we’re all good. Makes sense.

Maybe they shouldn't be crazy it's just a championship people like that is why prison should exist

Who could have seen this coming
