Dozens of opponents and supporters of President Trump’s sweeping travel ban on people from seven predominantly Muslim countries faced off at Los Angeles International Airport on Saturday, one day after a federal judge temporarily suspended the ban.
Opponents of the ban began rallying in front of Tom Bradley International Terminal about 11 a.m. They were joined about an hour later by a group of ban supporters, who stationed themselves across the roadway.
About 100 protesters of the ban were led by a group of 10 women in head scarves. One of the women used a megaphone to urge the group to be respectful of the ban supporters.
“Let’s keep this peaceful,” she said. “The are exercising their 1st Amendment rights just as we are exercising our 1st Amendment rights.”
