Kelly Thomas’ death has caused outrage, all over Fullerton. And, this outrage has now increased nationally and internationally, as people check out many videos and sites, all dedicated to the late Kelly Thomas and his family. Many people joined the Thomas family in order to protest by the Fullerton Police Department, every Saturday, until justice is served. The Fullerton community came together to help make a difference. They met on Saturdays for such peaceful protests, each holding their own posters and picket signs as well as wearing specially made t-shirts to support Ron Thomas and his quest for justice.

This youtube video displays a Saturday protest event, where a musician performs for a large crowd. He sings a ballad about Kelly’s death for all the protestors. It is sad that it takes such a tragedy to bring together a community in order to fight for a cause that they all believe in until justice is served.
