Korean store owners were shooting at everyone getting anywhere near their stores and I have no recollection of anyone getting charged.
In a riot situation you are in danger of losing life and property at all times.
Didn’t one or both of the parents of the dead criminal in Ferguson end up being charged with a violent felony?
My wife's first cousin was at USC when the riots happened. Dumb college students thought it would be "fun" to go see all the "excitement". They got their ass beaten and thrown in jail by LAPD, and for a week was moved around and disappeared. Not charged with anything, but kept in the pokey because he was in the lobby of his apartment building filming the cops on the corner.
In jail, he said that the Koreans were rounded up en masse and kept to each other, and he could hear them telling each other to not say a word to betray Koreatown. Cops didn't have film evidence, and every single Korean kept their mouth shut.....prosecutors had NOTHING on them. Guns were traded back and forth in case a bullet was matched to a particular person. Koreans took care of their own.
You are right though. No charges because DA/PROC had nothing.
Gives credence to SSS.
22 years later, we have Obama and Holder at the top of the “justice” food chain. It’s not the same at 1992, although I do hope the business and home owners make an example of these rioters.
