Rodney King's Been Shot!

Rodney KingRodney King, famous for a videotaped beating from Los Angeles police back in 1991, was shot and wounded on a San Bernardino street corner late Wednesday.

King called Rialto police just before midnight to report the shooting. According to Sgt. Don Lewis, King was struck in the face and arm -- with what appeared to be pellets or birdshot. When police arrived at King's home, they reported that King and others inside appeared drunk. The man got shot in the face -- he deserves a drink!

King was taken to a local hospital, and his wounds were not believed to be life-threatening.

112. sadly, the cops came in and beat king until the bullets fell out of his face. the cops the proceeded to ask the bullets if "they were OK" and "do you want to file charges against that mans head?".

115. "58. I am deeply concerned by these heinous remarks. Rodney was a good man before LAPD decided to give him brain damage with their beatings. If only you people would have a kind heart, our nation will begin to heal.

This, folks, is proof positive that drugs are bad for you.

116. The LA riots were caused by black people trying to avenge the beating of Rodney King. Innocent white people were pulled out of their cars and beaten within inches of their lives and it was all played out on TV. I don't know the color of the person who shot Rodney but wouldn't it be ironic if it were a black person?

117. '63. The riots occurred because of years of police brutality that had happened for years before that incident and continues to happen. Also, it's nobody's business what he chose to do with his money.

Wow. You really had to work hard for that gem. Spoken like a true loser in life - is a loser, identifies with losers, will die a loser. Congratulations, Einstein.
