Rappers Snoop Dogg, The Game Lead Peaceful Demonstration Outside LAPD Headquarters

LOS ANGELES (Top40 Charts) Rappers Snoop Dogg and The Game led a peaceful unification march to the Los Angeles Police Department headquarters in downtown L.A. Friday morning. The demonstration was organized by Compton native The Game, whose legal name is Jayceon Terrell Taylor.
It was scheduled the day after a sniper attack in Dallas left five police officers dead and seven others wounded.
The demonstration follows unrest throughout American cities after the killings of two black citizens, Philando Castile and Alton Sterling.
The Dallas demonstration ended up with a sniper killing five police officers on July 7.

Snoop Dogg and The Game were invited inside the HQ by the LAPD chief of police Charlie Beck and the Mayor Eric Garcetti.
Snoop Dogg told reporters: "It went well. We were just in there trying to build up dialogue between the police and the community.
For many years, there's not been any dialogue. It's just been violence and misunderstanding.
We want to bridge the communication gap between the community and the police. That's what I'm here for, because I could definitely turn it up and go violent. But we wanted to come out here to initiate love and peace.
The mayor and chief of police offered us a room inside where we could talk. And they listened to us."
