Since the actual verdicts were not known by the authorities, it wassmart not to allow "Friday night for fighting" (sorry, Elton) and toseal them for this morning.

Those acquittalsseem to balance out the fact that Rodney King himself was not any kindof angel that night, speeding and fleeing et al. However ... Anotherconsideration is any street celebrations over the two convictions onthe excessive force charges (Koons for incompetance, and Powell foroverreacting --- both guilty as heck even from the view of NYPD copsinterviewed) that might get out of hand. )-; Also, some elementsmay take the acquittals as an excuse to challenge the cops (a dumbmove, obviously). And, Koreans are still scared and certain peopleare really mad over how they have armed themselves in the last year.A Commander from Nassau, Long Island was questioned about how hispeople would have handled Rodney King, and he said "We'd have lethim roll around in the dirt 'til he got tired, then handcuff him".gld--~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Je me souviens ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Gary L.
