Protesters at a D.C. military parade express their commitment to peaceful demonstration while sharing perspectives on violent protests occurring in cities like Los Angeles.

Coinciding with Trump's 79th birthday, the parade will feature tanks, bands and thousands of troops in honor of the Army’s 250th anniversary celebration.

U.S. Capitol Police arrested about 60 demonstrators Friday evening during a protest of the appearance of troops in Saturday’s Army celebration in Washington and at immigration protests in Los Angeles. More than 50 of those arrested were veterans, according to organizers.

There were funnel cakes, stands of festival bling and American flags aplenty. Also, the spray of tear gas against nonviolent marchers in Atlanta, rolling waves of anti-Trump resistance coast to coast and a confrontation in Los Angles.

Thousands of demonstrators crowded into streets, parks, and plazas across the US, blaring anti-authoritarian chants mixed with support for protecting democracy and immigrant rights.

Protesters of the June 14 Army parade in Washington, D.C., "will be met with very big force," President Donald Trump said on June 10.
