Professional protester Jason Reedy is always happy to hear a dissenting opinion – as long as it’s his own warped view of the world. Reedy, 38, is a regular pest at Los Angeles Police Commission and City Council meetings, where he loudly assails cops, elected officials and anybody else within earshot with his repugnant brand of expletive-laced ”activism.
”Professional protester Jason Reedy is always happy to hear a dissenting opinion – as long as it’s his own view.Reedy also claims he’s a champion of the downtrodden, yet his protest schtick is profitable one – with the People’s City Council Freedom Fund raising an $2.5 million since March 2020.menaced The California Post reporter Jamie Paige Sicko teacher sent student nauseating texts — before they had depraved hours-long sex marathon: report Deadly bomb cyclone headed straight for NYC — and could batter Northeast with even more snow, colder tempsThat was after orchestrating the Los Angeles Police Commission meeting devolving into disorder, with Reedy and others shouting obscenities and attempting to physically prevent The Post from filming.Reedy also claims he’s a champion of the downtrodden, yet his protest schtick is profitable one – with the People’s City Council Freedom Fund raising an $2.5 million since March 2020.The disruption was so severe, the public meeting was cut short, with commissioners escorted from the meeting. Although he and his acolytes within the radical leftist group the People’s City Council are routinely given a public forum to air their grievances, they make a mockery of the democratic process by shouting over officials and refusing to hand their microphones over, often resulting in meetings ending prematurely.“Public meetings exist so residents can be heard, not hijacked. Sadly, Jason Reedy chooses disruption over dialogue, bringing confrontational tactics that too often cross the line into the physical,” former LA Councilman Kevin de León told The Post.“That conduct doesn’t represent civic engagement -– it stands in direct opposition to it.” Critics say LA’s unelected ringleader of paid agitators uses his kids as human shields as he lobs insults from the podium – calling police “pigs,” screaming “f–k the police” and even shouting racial epithets at elected officials – all inches from his children’s ears. His shameless practice of roping his baby and toddler into his antics has sparked repeated backlash from commissioners, officers and the public, who say the youngsters are pawns trapped in his father’s chaos. Former LAPD Chief Michel Moore suggested during one meeting that Reedy was using his child to protect himself from criticism -– and former Police Commissioner Steve SoboroffUntil Tuesday, his most notorious confrontation with officials was in December 2022 during a holiday toy giveaway in Lincoln Heights. Video footage shows de León attempting to leave the event as Reedy followed closely behind in what witnesses described as a “nose-to-nose” pursuit. The encounter turned physical when de León shoved Reedy into a table, witness accounts and video indicating Reedy then struck the councilman at least once. De León later accused Reedy of a “calculated pattern of violent behavior” – alleging he stalked female staffers outside a council field office days earlier and injured a staffer and volunteer during the toy giveaway. Reedy has denied those claims. People’s City Council ignored messages sent by California Post seeking an accounting of how the money was spent, while a request for comment from Reedy went unanswered. But the financial backing seems to have helped transform Reedy from a garden variety heckler into a central figure in LA’s “defund the police” movement – whose presence at a public meeting now reliably signal an ugly confrontation is imminent. Reedy has also clashed publicly with senior LAPD leadership outside City Hall, including a recent dust-up with Deputy Chief Alan Hamilton at a Martin Luther King Jr. Day event – another flashpoint in a long-simmering standoff between the department and anti-police activists. On Wednesday, The Post went to Reedy’s home and reached out to him via social media seeking comment but received no response.
