Honestly I don't expect there to be that much rioting. Certainly not like Rodney King.

I bet you were on the wrong side of history on that one, too.

Let me guess, you only felt that way because he was black. If he was white you wouldn't give a fuck, in fact you'd probably sit back and HBB your way into an "about time" stance.

Don't taze me bro.

I was 9 years old in 1991 so no.

Nice try at shitty trolling since you gave up making shitty arguments that kept getting countered I guess?

I was six, doesn't mean I'm not allowed to read up on those events and have an opinion about them. Cops can be assholes, sometimes they can be worse.

King was a lowlife scumbag who provoked the cops in more ways than one.

That said, police brutality is a real thing and I prefer the cops getting in trouble for abuse of power.

FYI King died, from drowning, with like 4 different drugs (including PCP) in his system.

Do you know what the word "justice" means? It does not mean, "Well, that person deserved what was coming to them." Or, "Well, that person seemed like a bad dude for whatever judgmental reasons I concoct, so karma's a bitch." If you're the victim of police brutality, would it be just for the state to rummage through your personal life, find a ton of ultimately irrelevant information about "bad things" you've done, and use that as a case to say that you got what was coming to you? I understand that they attempt to do this all of the time, but destroying the character of a person who's not on trial does not make sense in the scope of criminal justice.

Now tell me that you throwing in that bit about his death wasn't an underhanded attempt at just that.

It reminds me of the maid with Strauss-Kahn a few years back. Just because she may have been in this country illegally, lied at various times in her life, and/or came here under "dubious circumstances" does not mean that she is not protected by the law. The law is there to protect people, regardless of who you are.

I was three when King happened. It stands as a hallmark of racial tension in this country, and is important regardless of your proximity.
