Controversial influencer Kat Clark has been slammed for complaining about living in Los Angeles while anti-ICE protests rage through the city.
As locals deal with a fourth day of riots in California, Marines and the National Guard have hit the streets to 'address the lawlessness' of protesters.
However, Clark appeared oblivious to the chaos on Sunday as she uploaded a vlog about her daily inconveniences in LA.
'Australians and Americans may speak the same language, but today proved we live completely different lives. Firstly, why is there no good coffee in LA?' she began.
'They also take security very seriously,' she added as she showed footage of store fronts locked up with security gates.

Clark, who relocated to LA from the Gold Coast with her husband Jonathan and their daughter Deja, 14, went on to complain about people not using towels at the gym.
'These are just the small things I've noticed since moving here. Wait until you see what else I learned,' she continued.
'They love their ranch. They've got litres of it. They even have tuna flavoured bacon ranch. That sounds gross,' Clark added as she visited a Ralphs grocery store.
'I'm not going to lie, they have a lot of questionable things here, but they also have a lot of things that just make sense.'
Followers flocked to the comments of the video to slam Clark for appearing to ignore the riots and military presence throughout LA.
'U not been on the news?' one person wrote.
'Kat completely oblivious to what's happen in LA right now,' another added.
A third wrote: 'Are u going to talk about anything that's happening in LA atm?'
'Y'all just pretending LA isn't a disaster rn,' said yet another.
Clark responded to the comments, explaining she was was aware of what has been happening in the city.
'I hear you and I've been following everything closely,' she said.
'As someone on a visa, I have to be mindful about what I say, but please know I'm listening, learning and supporting where I can.'
Fans then jumped in to offer their support to Clark.
'What is she supposed to do about it?' one person wrote.
Another user said: 'She just moved there let her enjoy for like a second.'
'It's her life why does she have to do everything to satisfy u guys?' commented someone else.
Daily Mail Australia has reached out to Clark for comment.
700 Marines and 2,100 National Guard members have hit the LA streets to 'address the lawlessness' in California, according to President Donald Trump.
Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth said the military will stay in the city for 60 days to combat violent 'rioters, looters and thugs' during the immigration riots.
The chaos began on Friday when anti-U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement protesters seized on a handful of police raids across LA, taking to the streets to burn cars and march against what they say are unfair deportations.
Local business owners are outraged as destructive looters continue to target downtown stores as the protests continue on.
Trump on Tuesday flirted with invoking the Insurrection Act as he tore into 'bad people' and 'animals' he said brought the city to the verge of burning down.
The president defended his decision to send 700 Marines as well as the California National Guard to LA, and brushed off California Gov. Gavin Newsom's claim the deployment inflamed the situation.
And he would not rule out use of an authority to deploy military forces under his control to put down disturbances if he sees fit.
'If there's an insurrection, I would certainly invoke it. We'll see. But I can tell you, last night was terrible. The night before that was terrible,' Trump said.
'If we didn't send in the national guard quickly, right now, Los Angeles would be burning to the ground,' Trump told reporters in an impromptu Oval Office meeting with members of his team.
