30 years on a black person can falsify a race hate crime for personal gain. Change of a kind

Sadly, upon 30 years of reflection, I don't believe that America is in a better place in 2022 . . .

[@jltaco85]

How the heck was he supposed to go viral at that time? internet was a luxury at that time.

I was 16.5 living on the Westside of LA and I didn’t participate and I lived in the projects

[@jltaco85]

You want a cookie or something?

[@user-gg9fp1fh5u]

You want a cookie for your reply? If you were around during the riots and participated or received any kind of benefit from anyone who looted, than you're a pathetic parasite or a spawn of one 🤷🏻‍♀️

[@richardlowe9379]

Yea right and if not u should of

Shid.. you poe! Should’ve been out there getting yo juss due🤷🏾‍♂️

[@jbkidd2006]

Wow where is that little kid today.

[@djBangzWell]

It’s always the kids speaking truth …. ✊🏿

[@BenClason]

Tu Pac was right, I see no changes. Its worse! Drain the swamp!

[@SL-cl9gt]

If this happens again, the looting will be 10x worse thanks to the hyper consumerism caused by social media.

[@TraumfresserBMofficial]

The funniest part was when they couldn’t cash their welfare checks a couple days later.

[@simonlee2769]

Yet they did't bother asking the ones who were really hurt by this riot. Same thing in 2020 too; stop asian hate movement got silenced real quick once it was shown who were the main assailants.

[@kendallevans4079]

As riots go, I still prefer the Watts riots of 1964. It was open season on the rioters and cops didn't need to be thinking "lawsuit" before blasting away with their 12 gauges (they still used revolvers and shot guns back in '64).

[@Jay-jb2vr]

You need a hug

[@kendallevans4079]

I'd be the happiest girl on earth if you get into riots and they do some nice things to you. Poor reginald denny. You shouldve been there instead of him
