In one photo, Morello, 61, held a sign that read "Organize Unite Defend." He wore a black T-shirt with white lettering that said, "Destroy American Fascism" in another shot while posing with other protesters and holding a "Defend LA" poster.
For yet another picture, Morello flipped the bird to the camera. The rocker also included a close-up of a shirt that read "Nazi Lives Don't Matter" in a different snap.
