I hope we don't have another riot like back in 1992 in Los Angeles.....

Don't bet on it. The TV sets they stole in 1992 are worn out and they will be wanting new ones.

"Violent" taped arrest? Come on, I've seen more violence at a bingo hall than on this video.

...riots like the ones that devastated the city after four white police officers were acquitted of state charges in the videotaped beating of black motorist Rodney King in 1992.Morse was white and the teen, Donovan Jackson, is black.
Race was not mentioned in the trial, although Morse is white and Jackson is black. However, the videotape drew protests and comparisons to the 1991 videotaped beating of black motorist Rodney King by four white Los Angeles police officers.
Sheesh, let's not try to incite a race war or anything...!

Not only are people thinking about what they could get in a good looting and riot, but CNN is stirring things up right now and practically begging for a riot.

That's one reason TVs have gotten outrageously huge: its hard to walk off with a 40" 200# set over your shoulder.
What's the hot item this year to steal in a riot?

After the last riots, the residents learned that the Koreans had the right idea; arm yourself beforehand to the teeth and use the 2nd Amendment. It would be poetic justice if they rioted and the business owners that were being attacked defended their property like the Koreans did. Maybe a couple hundred of wounded rioters would send a message to Jesse's minions.
To: lelio
Let's see...the hot item for rioting looters this year would probably be the dvd/vcrs that let you copy from disk to tape and vice-versa. Of course, the hot items SHOULD be pepper spray and tear gas.

It wouldn't take a couple of hundred wounded rioters. A dozen rioters getting shot right off the back would do the trick. Nothing calms a riot quite like seeing a few gangbangers getting shot down by decent people.

You can bet there won't be a single Republican rioting.

My bet it that the verdict and it's possible aftermath are going to be positive.
Our society has learned that coddling rioters is risky business. LA's new chief is no nonsense and has already done an endaround on the bleeding hearts at the state level.
Expect that the chief will ask for federal assistance, not state assistance, if racists stir up the ghetto. Expect "full contact" responses to the obligatory "race riot" that the social underbelly of LA can so quickly produce.

I don't know...a super thin plasma would be nice to take home and place on the wall.
