Ever since Trump's decision to end the DACA program, there have been a slew of protests, including one outside his very own Trump Tower, and school walk-outs as well. 

On Thursday morning, several DACA protesters blocked traffic on Wilshire Boulevard in the Westwood area of Los Angeles, KTLA reports. Los Angeles Police Department Detective Ross Nemeroff announced soon after that the demonstration had been declared an unlawful assembly, and ordered protesters to disperse. 

“There is nothing more unsafe than taking more people away from our communities, ripping parents away from their children and ripping children away from their parents. There is nothing more harmful to our country and nothing more harmful to me,” said one demonstrator as she stood in the middle of the street.

According to the LA Times, protesters held up DACA signs and chanted things like “Stop deportation!,” "Who's streets? Our streets!" and “Black lives matter!" Protesters also brought out the metal prison beds from a recent LA protest for prison reform.

Thursday, October 5 was the last day to apply for two-year DACA protection renewals. Under the current rules, DACA beneficiaries whose DACA protections expire after October 5 will not be eligible to apply for continuing protection. This could lead to loss of employment, arrest or even deportation for those who did not make the cut-off to renew.

Congress has until March 5, 2018 to pass legislation to save DACA beneficiaries, also known as "Dreamers," from mass deportation.

"We are very concerned that because DACA recipients were not individually notified of their eligibility for renewal, tens of thousands of DACA recipients could lose their work authorization and DACA status protections," wrote Congressional Hispanic Caucus leaders to DHS Secretary Elaine Duke.

Nine protesters were arrested for not following the LAPD's orders to disperse.
