Subject: RE: Obit: Rodney King
And so it spirals away from respect for a man who, as Bobert said, should have had a better life. Seems to me Bobert was saying that it was sad that King fell upon bad times. True enough. And truly sad.

Don't get me wrong. If I was there and he came at me I woulda kicked his ass too. What pisses me off is that he had to have his ass kicked. The land of the free and the home of the impoverished takin drugs and alcohol to numb the pain ain't workin fer guys like him.

Maybe, with all that attitude and strength, he shoulda been recruited by one a them "security" companies ta provide "security" in the Iraqisyrialybiaafghanistan territories?

Sorry to do just what I wished would not happen.
