It seems that the people involved in rioting are there for the violence and distruction and who cares who loses.

(I am white by the way.)   Though I believe that what showed on the tape was a distraught surprised Mehserle, that he didn't intend to use the gun, STILL what he DID intend was excessive force so that should have made up for the lack of intent to kill. But I wouldn't go for murder first or second degree.   Infowolf1       In a message dated 7/8/2010 5:00:01 P.M.
