Lainie, these are the images that you didn't get on CNN during the riots....I remember listening to the whole thing start on the scanner from work...

California Market owner Richard Rhee returns fire at looters approaching his market in Koreatown, Los Angeles on the second day of the Los Angeles Riots.

This Korean-American volunteer showed up to help protect Korean-American owned businesses from the rioters.

That's amazing. I didn't live here at the time. I was actually visiting my future husband's family here on the exact weekend of Rodney King's arrest and videotaping, but I was back east for the trial and the riots. Never saw any pictures like that on CNN.

A good friend of ours that lived in Torrance tells tales of how he would not leave any building without a loaded pistol. He drove with it on the seat next to him. It was that scary just getting to and from work.
