You are wrong about the ethnicity of the majority of "rioters" in 1992 in Los Angeles. Despite the number of black faces you saw on the tube carrying off TV sets, furniture, etc., there were many more Hispanics involved in the looting than there were Blacks. That's a fact.

If that were true, I would be very surprised. Not only were the faces on the TV mostly black, but in the aftermath, it was predominantly black "leaders" who addressed the riots and defended the rioters.

By the way, why put rioters in quotations? It's hardly in dispute that the term is accurate.

It's true, the Hispanics may have been doing most of the looting, but who was doing the killing? The media treated the killings as a secondary story.

I guess it wasn't politically correct to point out the wrongs of those who murdered white people.
