Do you think that anger and violence had emerged out of thin air? Lol….what happened in 2020 with George Floyd? Do you think those riots were spontaneous instead of being caused by systematic economic and social inequalities and resentments of authority figures like the police? You all talk about how the violence is so “unexpected” but if you have actually been paying attention to this country’s tragic history of racism and inequality, you would know these riots should be not the least bit surprising.

@Oridux

I wouldn't go as far as to say it is journalism; journalism is collection of facts of the present day.
Whilst you can argue that 1992 is the present day, you would also be arguing that Black Hawk Down, 9/11 and the dissolution of the Soviet Union were all recent events.

So, more accurately, this documentary is good history. It's a very well made in depth look at something from the past - albeit a past that continues to affect us.

@Boxers Austin You are absolutely right. Destroying property, killing or abusing the body of another human being is disgusting no matter what race a person is. The sad part is that the hate is all superficial. It's based simply on the difference of appearance. People would be shocked to find out how much they have in common with the people they hate if they looked under the surface.

@Boxers Austin “really sick of hearing about racism”... this is part of the problem. These riots were in the middle of the war on drugs and mass incarceration that was devastating communities of color in the early 1990s. If you continue to ignore the fact that black people still are not treated equally the way countless others do, then 1. things won’t change and 2. These events will keep happening. If you noticed at the start of this film, the Watts Riots were the most destructive in American history prior to the riots of 1992. In fact, the Watts riots were part of dozens of riots in American cities that occurred during the Civil Rights era. This has been going on for DECADES. The riots of 1992 were the most destructive in American history prior to the riots across America last year. You know what was the last time we saw nationwide riots prior to 2020? The 1960s. There’s a clear pattern here. Of course everyone is capable of racism, but you can’t compare that to what African-Americans have faced. And if you’re tired of hearing about racism, imagine how tired people are of experiencing it. This is the result.

@theimperator9706

@AMoliski The action itself was excessive use of force, however the knee on the neck was not what killed George Floyd. He overdosed on fentanyl because the drugs combined with the stress of the arrest caused him breathing problems. This is corroborated by the fact that Floyd was yelling "I can't breathe" several minutes before the officer knelt on his neck. In addition, the officer was promptly arrested and charged, so justice was served.

I was 4 years old when these riots happened and I'm also born and raised in Toronto, Canada. I do have vivid memories of Rodney King's name at that time from my mom, grandmother and elders talking about it but when I got a wee bit older and looked into it myself, wow. This documentary is as raw as a it gets and for anyone who wasn't alive or too young too remember, brace yourself. I watch this documentary at least once a year. In my personal opinion, this is the closest the United States ever came to a Second American Civil War. I don't blame LA for being angry, I was angry after learning all what came before the riots. What choice did they have? Enough was enough and voices needed to be heard. I couldn't imagine living it back then and the closest I ever came to something like this was working security during the G20 in Toronto. A moment I'll never forget but, it will never measure to this. America is still dealing with race issues and as long as that is still the case, America is doomed to repeat its history which we have seen over and over after 1992. Treat people with equality, respect, courteousness and kindness. Do better. The world is watching.

His poor soul was practically spilling over with pain & anguish. Justice failed him at every turn & he deserved better.

Police brutality and the justice system was and is still terrible. It’s heartbreaking that the only way people with power/government pay more attention and saw the matter is serious was when the riot (breaking businesses, harming passers who weren’t involved) happened. Its heartbreaking that those rioting took it out on others who weren’t at fault. Everything about this is heartbreaking. It’s outrageous that so many crimes on poc were taken lightly when the injustice was visible, if the law and government took it serious and did something, the outcome could have been different.

But as I've gotten older (currently 41) I've realized it wasn't racism but just a lack of understanding. Our Country's history is so complex, it will take me lifetime to study. Why racism? Is it the color of the skin? Is it something I'm not seeing? I hope one day I'll understand why. There is an interesting twist to this. Our country is fairly young in the world History. We are a young nation full of immigrants from other countries. If this happened in another older country, it would have been dealt with immediately. We are the most free country on planet earth. ( I get some third world countries are lawless and are more free)......but we are the most free society in the first world to have ever existed. I truly hope we can overcome this idea "racism"........we can realize that democracy, justice, freedom, and liberty surrounds all members of our country no matter whether its color of skin, ethnicity, whatever constitutes racism.
