In the “CNN: Rodney King” video many of us cringe when we watch the outrage in which was occurring. Non black people who drove through the neighborhood didn't stand a chance. The African Americans in which were rioting through the streets would not just break your car windows with rocks and stomp on the hood of you car. These men took it to an extreme, they would snatch people out of their cars stomp on their heads, and chuck bricks at peoples faces. This riot was seen all over the nation and the black people didn't think twice about taking those actions. They believe that revenge was needed due to how long slavery went on for and how often black get brutally assaulted by cops.

I totally agree. Like Mr. Steward mentioned, the Rodney assault and trial reached their boiling point to where they couldn't take it anymore. It got to the point where they snapped and blacked out committing bad crimes not know whether it was right or not.
