Rodney King dies!
Victim of L.A. pig thug cop beating was 47.
RIALTO, Kalifornia (PNN) - June 18, 2012 - Rodney King, the black motorist whose violent encounter with white Los Angeles pig thug cops after a car chase in 1991 was captured on home video and helped prompt one of the worst race riots in Fascist Police States of Amerika history and an abiding controversy about Amerikan justice, died June 17. He was 47.
King apparently drowned at his home in Rialto, Kalifornia, according to local thug cops. His fiancée called 911 early Sunday morning, saying that she had discovered King at the bottom of his swimming pool. He was taken to a hospital, where he was pronounced dead. A preliminary investigation showed no signs of foul play.
Two decades ago, King, then 25, found himself at the center of one of the most volatile debates over race and the law since the end of the civil rights movement. To many people, he became a symbol of the pig thug cop brutality that had long been inflicted on all Amerikans, and especially blacks.
King became known for the words he spoke in an appeal he made during the riots that followed his arrest. “Can we all get along?” he urged. “Can we get along?”
