Blacks led the way in the early 90's riots, browns right behind them, taking everything from electronics to mattresses

Watched it live on TV, there for anybody to see, buried in the rest of the nation with lack of comment by the MSM

My take was that Rodney King gave an excuse to the black community, and the Latinos took advantage of the mayhem to get free stuff.

The cops just stood by, made no attempt to stop it, just walled off the "better" communities like Beverly Hills

Asians in Korea town were left to defend their businesses themselves, which they did quite effectively by waving their guns around

The rioting seemed more about stealing than the righteous anger you saw in the 60's
