I am looking back at the Rodney King Case and how a trial and it's subsequent acquittals did nothing to defuse the brewing firestorm...fifty-three people died during the riots, including 10 shot dead by the LAPD and the National Guard,with as many as 2,000 people injured. Estimates of the material losses vary between about $800 million and $1 billion. Approximately 3,600 fires were set, destroying 1,100 buildings, with fire calls coming once every minute at some points

My wishful thinking is still holding onto the hope this dosen't happen again.
