I don't understand why people are not opening fire after a brief warning. Looks like we need the Koreans to do that again like during the Rodney King riots.

When citizens are forced to kill in order to defend themselves and their properties from this mayhem, the mayors and governors should be charged with negligent homicide.

Nobody charged the Koreans during the King riots for shooting from their rooftops.

As I recall, those Korean ancestry Americans did not even have loaded weapons, just being visible on the roof with weapons was enough to stop them from being looted. I do not think they shot at anyone.

Untrue. They did open fire.

HA: The riot people took the next building, put it on fire. Then these people want to come to our store. Then we are shooting each other. Somehow, the people stationed on roof, then their line of fire got my security guard, and he really get blown off. So...

The clip showed store owners firing their guns, ostensibly to keep looters away, during the 1992 Los Angeles riots, which were sparked by racial unrest stemming from the beating of Rodney King and killing of 15-year-old Latasha Harris.

God bless the Korean-Americans!

All looters should be shot on sight.
