Rodney King the center of the LA riots died today and was found at the bottom of a pool.  Anyone that lived in Los Angeles at that time was involved, as the whole city was in an uproar.  I was a principal for a computer school in North East LA and remember the mob coming down the street smashing windows and beating anyone that was White, Asian, or Hispanic.  I dismissed everyone, grabbed my computer and high tailed it out of there.  We came back to everything smashed and looted.  Scarey time, and Not good memories.  Still RIP MR. King.

Can't say that I'm surprised he has had a lot of trouble since his incident.  Personally my life was touched significantly by the event, I was a Fireman and responded into the City on a Mutual Aid assignment... it was a war zone and I saw things that will be with me for the rest of my life.

RIP Rodney King
