Asked if society has learned to get along since the riots, King said, "We're working through change, but it's a slow process. Race is the biggest problem we face in this country. I don't have to explain it, do I? We all know what's going on."
You are asking an idiot his opinion. This is just another member of society who can not admit that he made a huge mistake. ( On parole, on PCP, ran from Police, resisted arrest)
Since he is an irresponsible adult, he blames society, racism, and police departments, everybody but himself.
This fool would never realize that he was a tool by the race pimps and the LA Times to use against LAPD.
What the Rodney King riots were about was : Who would run the streets: LAPD or the Crips.

Its true. He could have said Im not worth all this. He could have stopped a lot with a decent statement that day. He didnt. He was incapable for whatever reason.

It's people like you that are keeping racial issues alive and dividing our society at a time when Americans of all races and ethnicities should be united for our common good.

Also, is this the peacemaker who gave all those phoney docs to Blather? Include his lawyer, too, who managed to screw LA out of 3.8 million for Rotteny King.

If he even thinks about reaching for car keys, he should be hit upside the head!

King, 39, has since had a string of run-ins with the law, being arrested for things such as spousal abuse, hit-and-run driving and being under the influence of PCP.Just your average 'Rat.
