The Koreans were the heroes of the whole thing. Literally defending their livelihoods and families from demonic, evil hordes.

I was suppose to be off and got called in to work it.
Yes, we did not have enough units in the area and I was pulled from N Hollywood.
My supervisor told me welcome to hands on training. He was serous.
It was a very tense time.

Lesson to young people when they ask for volunteers and no one around you volunteers there is a reason for that.

He's incarcerated today for killing a drug dealer in almost the same location he nearly killed Denny. Miller was shot and killed in a nighclub.

So at least two of the POS got some Karma.

What I remember about them is it all began because Rodney King was on PCP and chose to flee and fight the police rather than obey their commands. As a result, Rodney got his arse kicked.

They caved his Skill in with a cement block.He later forgave them in court.

He should have ran over them on the day in question.

The Wiki does not fully tell the story. But as far as the crime they committed? Yeah, they got off easy. IIRC two of the four were dead within a few years after the incident.

They were hoodlums living up to expectations.
He was white, that was what he did wrong.

Many Korean businesses were burned to the ground. Those photos are probably from a couple days in when it was safer and from koreatown not south la.

Also I think much if not most of the looting was done by hispanics.

Now this is just pathetic son.

When you watched Captain Phillips were you just bending over backwards the whole time trying to justify the inbred knuckledraggers' motives cause they looked like you?

Maybe, but the storeowner who killed Latasha Harlins can burn in hell.
