Rodney King

Not exactly recent news, but his name keeps coming up.

Does anyone else wonder what all the hysteria is about?

The man was completely drunk and speeding. He wouldn’t pull over for the cops because a DUI charge would have been a violation of his parole (for armed robbery). He led the cops on a high speed chase, pysically resisted arrest, tried to tackle a cop after been tased.

Why all the fuss over his beating?
