RIALTO, California (CNN) -- Rodney King, whose 1991 police beating sparked widespread rioting in Los Angeles and other U.S. cities, was recovering Thursday after being slightly wounded by gunfire.
You know, I consider myself a nice person and I would love nothing better than to say something nice about this fella, but I just simply don't have it in me this morning. He is in constant trouble with the law in one way or the other. He got money (and a lot of it) from that L.A. beating thing and what has he done? Blown it on dope. He's a loser and I don't even think he's worth the cost of ink it takes to print anymore articles on his latest run in with the authorities OR anyone else for that matter.
kittytoes I am inclined to agree with you on this. I live in LA, and remember all the riots over this person. Hey look what I stole from this store, a brand new tv, and I am doing it for Rodney. All those people had no shame. They would walk right up to the reporters and say just that to the reporter. God it was disgusting. And lets not forget the poor truck driver the rioters pulled from his truck and nearly beat him to death, in the name of Rodney. I personally dont care if I ever hear his name again.

Amen to that! Couldn't have put it better myself.
I'm all out of rep at the moment but I'll try and remember this post for when I've got some.
