Hard to believe it's been that long.
The Rodney King verdict was not a good one, but the Damian Williams one was worse IMO.

Rodney King deserved the beatdown that he got.

They should of went and burned uptown where all the rich bank owned businesses where but they had no TVs.

Maybe so, but Reginald Denny certainly didn't. The fact that those human pieces of shit got off with barely anything after beating him nearly to death was the biggest travesty of it all.

I remember that shit. I was so pissed they weren't shooting the felonious behavior from choppers. That enabling set back law and order big time.

So did Denny for stopping a 80,000 lb machine in a riot zone.

but time caught up with them. nearly all of them ended up dead or in jail. only one who, oddly apologized, is alive and with a job.

Not before they victimized others. All should have been shot from police choppers above. But as we know cops have no duty to protect you - he lost lawsuit and judge said same thing.
