Poor Rodney King As much he begged on national tv for the riots to end when it was going on, to have forgiven the a** hole cops decades later, I'm almost certain with the amount of trauma he endured is what drove him to start drinking and slipping back into drugs again He probably couldn't deal with the pain mentally and emotionally anymore RIP Rodney King

Just remember 55 people died over this video and people think the beating was worse

Comment from : @smartmaxwell9017

He was driving drunk, plenty of actual innocent people were injured and killed during the riots Same shit with George Floyd, the man was far from a saint
Comment from : @JimCrowce

Do you think he still had those clothes he wore to the press conferences in 1991
Comment from : @robtru84

This is the same network that tells us Floyd died of police brutalitybrbrI don't believe this anymore either
Comment from : @twiceremoved7339

Awful
Comment from : @nonprofitgirl

Rodney king was a woman abuser and child abuser he was arrested in 97 for it
Comment from : @tylerpantera8023

Why did he attack police officers before this? Why did he not comply? Why is he high on PCP? Two wrongs don't make a right but I'm not going to glorify this guy either
Comment from : @Reebsth

You didn’t expect to get your ass beat after committing a crime and taking cops on a high speed chase? That’s interesting

Comment from : @dbmbusinessentertainment7543

Rest In Peace
Comment from : @aidanblazin

Why did he keep raising back up instead of laying flat like they told him? No I don't agree with what the cop's did but he shouldn't have kept trying to get back up Just lay flat smh
Comment from : @ThomasShelby-uq8cz

What an unfortunately worthless video
Comment from : @rodrigorodriguez509

There's going to be cops who don't care about losing their jobs or starting riots, all there care about is kicking your ass at the moment because they hate you and you pissed them off, it's a never ending thing trust me
Comment from : @abegoldman8749

Really ? U gonna talk
Comment from : @davidv5552

The cops should not have beaten him like that But I’m surprised so many people think he’s a great man I don’t think those people have seen his criminal record, he was a very bad, and very dangerous man
Comment from : @pete6705

Rip young king
Comment from : @Tj_dayoungan

Regular citizens don't rob and take police on high speed chases under the influence of alcohol or drugs
Comment from : @MortalSin84

What I remembered from the riots were the roof top Koreans

Comment from : @donaldcunningham3551

Society made him I wonder what his real nationality of his parent He doesn't seem to be 100 black, though
Comment from : @johnkim8907

So the he was playing the victim card all the way until the end I see I am glad that justice was served and the officers were acquitted
Comment from : @mastromx

That's not my fault, therefore should not be my problem I don't agree with 'REAL' self sacrifice/abuse among other things That's upside down
Comment from : @beyondchannel174

Beats me
Comment from : @BEINGOOD77

Really? Is that my fault?
Comment from : @beyondchannel174

All the money he got? Do you think his lawyers charged him special fees? He had exorbitant lawyer fees, medical bills HE was expected to pay, stupid There were plenty of people charging Him for their services
Comment from : @BEINGOOD77

Read his book Sadly It was released months before he passed in July, 2012 Respect for Rodney King RIP
Comment from : @BEINGOOD77

That's your problem, isn't it?
Comment from : @BEINGOOD77

Cyberbully
Comment from : @BEINGOOD77

They could have at least took to the streets against the police instead of looting the shops
Comment from : @TheZezima4

LOL, welcome to the real world
Comment from : @beyondchannel174

he staged his own beating? Some conspiracy theorists bring up valid points for discussion, others, the crazies like you genuinely have the brain capacity of fish
Comment from : @ReunitePeace777

He is lying IMO Looks ALL like a staged event I trust nobody
Comment from : @beyondchannel174

RIP
Comment from : @WakeRunSleep

Comment from : @pashedmotatos

Rodney King wasn't worth rioting over Now, what put an end to the riots?
Comment from : @MrOphachew

What put an end to the riots?
Comment from : @MrOphachew

I'm sticking with my previous comment
Comment from : @MrOphachew

Glorifying a drunk and criminal Yeah, the police 'might' have gone over board But what put an end to the Riots that followed? Ask yourself that
Comment from : @MrOphachew

Today 4/29/12 we celebrate the 20th anniversary of the LA Riots, the worst riot in US history when a white jury acquitted 4 white officers who were caught on videotape viciously beating black motorist Rodney King If a white jury acquits Zimmerman for stalking and killing this kid Trayvon who was minding his own business and was not a treat to Zimmerman until Zimmerman chased after him and confronted him, 2012 will go in history with the 2nd worst RIOTS in US history-coast to coast!!!
Comment from : @HipHopBoy18love

Meaning CNN is evil and we should protest their vile existence
Comment from : @neoncornelius

WHy aren't they interviewing the chief of police at the time or the judge who acquitted the cops? Because, CNN applauds them, they created a great story
