To: End The Hypocrisy
"Remember Inglewood, California!"
????
Someone needs to help me out on this one...

Inglewood IS mostly a black community, it is not TOO far from the part of Normandy in S. Central where the riots were filmed in their most virulent expression...
[they actually started at Parker Center (downtown) when a bunch of largely white protesters lit a guard shack on fire]
The riots were almost all across the metropolitan area...
certanly not only in Inglewood.

And, most residents would resent any other implication.

Calypso Louie might have been referring to the 16 year old who got punched (on video, again) during an arrest for allegedly grabbing one of the Cop's noogies.

Yes, he was. And that 16 year old weighed 300 pounds and was 6'5, if I remember correctly. Fortunately the gas station ALSO had video surveillance coverage of what transpired, and there were indeed some aggressive actions made against the police by the supposed victims.
