Want to feel old?
April 29th 1992, there was a riot on the streets tell me where were you?
30 years ago today. 30 years ago I watched on my tv a man pulled from a truck and beaten in the streets of LA.
While you were sitting home watching your TV, I was participating in some anarchy.
Yeah, I did watch it on tv. But it was in my backyard basically. I was stunned. Shocked. Couldn't understand it.
But if you look at the streets, it wasn't about Rodney King. It's this fucked up situation and these fucked up police.
There's the sad part. Nothing has changed. 30 years down the road and we've learned NOTHING. Not a goddamn thing. We're still having cops shoot people in the back in broad daylight. We haven't moved forward one step. If anything, we've gone backwards. How fucking sad is that?
Let it burn, wanna let it burn.
Yeah Bradley, so do I. Let it all burn to the damn ground and start over. Stop billionaires from buying things on a whim. Stop companies from raising prices while making record breaking profits. Stop the pain. Stop my head from hurting. Maybe in the next 30 years, please?
