Thank you for writing such an informative article. I just hope that more people take a fair and balanced look (not talking about you, Murdoch) at the situation. I seem to recall another riot that took place almost 16 years ago in a western city in the United States where misinterpretation of an amateur video led angry looters to take to the streets. I'm not saying Rodney King deserved to get beaten. I'm saying misinformed angry masses who were upset about their perceived oppression and lower economic standing, regardless of ethnicity, will always take an opportunity to riot and stick it to The Man. Besides, killing asian shopkeepers is wrong, no matter if it's being done in Tibet in 2008 or LA in 1992.
