They stoked the tensions that led to the L.A. Riots in the 90's.

And yes, the cops probably did what they did cos King was black, BUT, King, himself, gave a press conference saying the cops didn't use racist language when they were beating him.

No offense Moe, I've read many of your posts and I don't think you're a racist, but this is so tone-deaf it's laughable. What do you know about tensions in the black community in the first place to even make this statement? Not trying to be rude, just asking you to look from a different perspective.
