Wasn't actually the beating that sparked off the riots, but the fact that those who committed it (and were actually FILMED doing so) escaped justice in court.

It shows how screwed up the USA really is.

There will be a few conspiracy therories going about regarding this and TBH I am suspicious although I have not read the official report yet.

Just read the news report. It doesn't say a lot. Unless somebody was seen entering his premises then not a lot can be done. He said he had respect for the police despite what happened and many had been OK with him so there is no reason to 'get rid' after 20 years If it was murder it most likely was a loner and the authorities would want them caught..

He was doing his whitney Houston tribute act when things just got out of hand. No conspiracy there I think you will find.

bill hicks said.. the police officers had to bring their giant balls in court in a wheelbarrow.. quote by one officer regarding the video..."it all depends on how you look at it".. yeah,

play it backwards and it shows the officers picking him up and helping him on his way...
