Remember Rodney King of the Los Angeles debacle? When the
sleazy thugs jumped the truck driver and continued to beat
him into oblivion with a brick, they claimed they were angry
and that they had the right to express themselves. Thank God
we had some intelligent people on the jury that saw through
their feigned attempt to misconstrue the Constitution. Oops!
There I go saying that nasty dirt word again. Since one
Californian was arrested for saying that word, I should
probably watch my mouth!
