OJ, Rodney King, Economic Hit Men, and More

Burning Question:

Would OJ Simpson have gone free if Rodney King never would have been arrested? It's certainly a fascinating question, and one that my seniors are currently discussing. It's interesting to note that the long history of racial profiling, abuse, mistreatment of minorities by the LAPD had gone unchecked, and the Rodney King riots of 1992 certainly were in the back of the juror's minds as they listened to Johnnie Cochran give his closing arguments.

World Geography has a test tomorrow while US History I has a short quiz on the issues behind the Revolution. Great week so far!
