The Koreans opened and operated businesses where nobody else would - including the people who lived in those very neighborhoods.

The locals relied heavily on the Korean stores because the locals had chased off larger grocery stores by robbing and stealing from them and menacing other customers. The grocery stores were quite used to reading a P&L statement. The locals - slow learners - began doing the same things to the Koreans. The Koreans put up with (most of it).

When it all kicked off, so-called black anger against whites was somehow directed at....Koreans? The people who made it possible to buy beer, cigarettes, lottery tickets and junk food without having to travel some distance away?

While Rodney King remains a bizarre hero to the left and the race hustlers from that scenario, I prefer to think of Damian 'Football' Williams - cowardly, mindless brick-throwing thug. It probably won't surprise you that so-called urban media try desperately to portray criminality and mindless random violence as a noble cause...they even have the brass neck to call it 'rebellion.'

What the left won't admit is that they LOVED 1992. The media LOVED stoking a race war even if they had to rely on a drugged-up loser as their hero. They loved the 2nd largest city, supposedly a relaxed, laid-back place, going up in flames thanks to their agitation. It was a demonstration of their power. They loved hanging a Sword of Damocles over every city mayor, council, police chief and politician. Do what we say or this could be your city. Incredibly - and shamefully - copycat riots ensued in places like Cincinnati where entirely justified shootings of other punks took place.

They don't even try to hide it now. 'Oooh, this could lead to rioting' or 'If the police take a hard line won't it cause riots?' The riots are the constant in the media/leftist equation. As Col Schlichter notes, the variable in the equation can, should and must be an armed populace.

When I saw the title, I knew exactly that this would be about the Rodney King riots. The documentaries showing the Koreans lining the rooftops during the upheaval were memorable. Pretty amazing.

That's the iconic Roof Korean photo and here it is along with a photo of its alternative.

I had to look up about “football” Williams.

He only served 4 years for killing Denny with the brick! However, he is now currently serving 30 to life for the murder of someone else. I hope the judge that sentenced him way back when has a lot of sleepless nights.

"Some duties of citizen should never be outsourced. If you are an able-bodied adult, it’s your duty to know how to stop the bleeding and give CPR until the pros who do it for a living arrive." And it’s your duty (and right) to defend yourself, your family, your community and your Constitution." With guns – effective guns, which sometimes means your concealed pistol and sometimes means the guns that those who want you defenseless call “assault weapons."

I believe this to be the absolute truth and also applies 100% to our southern border... Those commie sons in DC are trying their best to bring us down.!! If we can't find enough young, hard American patriots to step up to the plate then our country is toast.... :(

Reginald Denny survived. I saw him at the Santa Clarita Mall a couple of years after the riots. His head was dented and he had quipped on TV, that his daughter called him ‘Reginald Denty’. I don’t know if he is still living.

With 10,000 a day pouring across, we sure could use a bunch of Southern Border Koreans

But I had a M16A1 – a real assault rifle – and I had a bunch of buddies with M16A1s. The regular folks … not so much.

I guess I'm a Regular Folk; as I only have a scary LOOKING; AR-15 5.56 size; assault rifle wannabe.

So why do Dems and Libs wanna take MINE away?

The website I saw said he had almost a 100 fractures in his skull - I assumed he had died. While some of this seems like it can’t be that long ago - I guess it has been quite awhile.

Great article by the Colonel.

Reminds me of the late great Mike Vanderbeogh, from Sipsey Street Irregulars... “When Democracy fails, I still get a vote... from the Rooftops.” M14 in picture.

God bless ya, Mike. You are missed.

"our citizens were on their own, at the mercy of the mob. Betting that the cavalry was going to come save you was a losing bet."

The Left is constantly pushing "gun control!"--code for disarming the public so that government agents can control them. Only a fool would entrust his family's safety to those thugs, and millions of Americans are not fools.

“The citizens on site are the first responders.“

I do a bit of volunteering with the local authorities and I’ve actually made this point to them. Most of them seem a bit shocked when I do it. But they all acknowledge the truth of it.

I miss him also, a great American with a no-holds-barred style of in-your-face patriotism. His stories of past and present heroes is an informative look into the future.

I especially enjoyed the story of the "100-Heads Insurance Company". Bought his T-Shirt and wear it proudly. I love sharing the story to the aghast looks on the faces of the listeners.

RIP MV.

As per the NRA, the 2nd Amendment is our First Freedom.

For the sake of accuracy: Denny survived, incredibly.

Also incredibly, Williams’ mother was one of the first - and most notable - examples of a mother of a mindless thug caught committing violence on video saying ‘he was always a good boy...he didn’t do nothing.’
