I thought he had lifetime immunity from any kind of a police action after that payout he got.

i'm surprised Oblamo hasn't put him in charge of the Beer Summits, or he could be the DUI Czar.

Did the cops throw him a beating, just for old time's sake?

I guess it depends if he resisted and deserved it again.

Obviously they didn't beat any sense into him.

Holder will refuse to prosecute, I don't know why.

Rodney King Out on Bail After DUI Arrest
Rodney King: Rodney King Arrested on Suspicion of DUI - chicagotribune.com

Quote:

No word on what substance King was allegedly under at the time of the arrest.

Quote:

King has not been a stranger to law enforcement or substance abuse in the years since the incident.

In May 1991, he was arrested on suspicion of trying to run over a vice officer who allegedly found him with a transvestite prostitute in Hollywood, but no charges were filed.

In 1992, King was arrested for DUI, but again no charges were filed.

In 1993, King entered an alcohol rehabilitation program and was placed on probation after crashing his vehicle into a block wall in downtown Los Angeles with a blood-alcohol level twice the legal limit.

He was arrested for DUI again in May 1995 in Pennsylvania. He was tried and acquitted.

In July 1995, he was arrested by Alhambra police, who alleged that he hit his wife with his car, knocking her to the ground.

He was sentenced to 90 days in jail after being convicted of hit and run.

I hope they took his car keys this time.

Quote:

In, September 2001 King was arrested in Claremont and charged with being under the influence of the psychedelic drug PCP.

what time do the RIOTS START?

Maybe if the moron-tard jury awarded him more millions that he didn't deserve, his life would have turned out better.

I've done volunteer work with people similar to Mr. King.
As stubborn as I am I eventually gave up on most of em.
They didn't want help. They didn't want a better life. They wanted more booze and drugs and nothing more.

And for the record, I believe that beating he got was well-deserved.
Most bleeding hearts didn't see the whole footage. They didn't see what happened before the beat down.
They didn't see Mr. King driving like a drunken tard putting people's lives at risk.
They didn't see the chase where innocent people could have been killed at any moment. They didn't see Mr. King resisting arrest and not cooperating and not complying with the orders from the police. They didn't see him fighting back, knocking the arresting officer to the ground.
They just saw the conveniently edited portion at the end.
Yet they still knee-jerked into a reaction as if programmed to do so.

Yup, that's why they acquitted the police officers and made speeder go all knee-jerk.

Obviously he DID NOT follow the trial. If he did he's have seen what I described but that would take more than a 5 second attention span and ........well ..............

Rodney King: Rodney King Arrested on Suspicion of DUI - chicagotribune.com

Quote:

Four officers involved in the incident were tried and acquitted, sparking the Los Angeles riots of 1992 which lasted four days and left 55 people dead.

Two of them were later charged with violating King's federal civil rights and served time in prison.

Now you're calling me a thief? Another subject which you know nothing about, yet flap your internet mouth muscles. You're a pussy. And that is why you live in OC. It's safer down there for a dumb cracker like you.

My offer to box you is still good. You've told us all how you've boxed for years, you're 6'4" or something...what do you say? We can make a YouTube video of it, set up some wagers here, really have some fun with it. Of course it's not like being an ass hole online. You really have to step up.

I did not follow the Rodney King beating trial closely and was in significant danger during the riots, like most Angelenos. I do remember that the cops get a jury of basically Sammy Gore types that would not have convicted them if there was video of them shoving a broom stick up his ass.

That is what sparked the riots.
