Outrage Over King Verdict
We can all thank Mayor Tom Bradley for instigating a riot in Los Angeles with his news conference after the King acquittal of four police officers. His leadership abilities are truly questionable and choice of words inappropriate on such a racially sensitive issue at the most crucial time. Calming the residents of the city, especially in South-Central L.A., sure would have been better than using “angry” “shocked” “mad” in describing his feelings about the verdict. Election time will not come too soon to elect a sensible new mayor!
