Sadly we've had plenty of our own Rodney Kings in Baltimore... ‪Tyrone West‬ ‪ and Anthony Anderson ‪among them. In reality there are far too many to name.

On this day in 1991, once again as in times past, America was forced to face police brutality. 24 years later the question is; how far have we come?

Sometimes it's important to be reminded just how long this mess has been going on. They keep trying to tell you things are changing, but I think reality show us different.

Personally, as a black man living in America, I've shed far too many tears over the years for men I've never met. This land is filled with brutal, corrupt, criminals running things. One day they'll have to answer to the Chief Judge. And with Him there aren't any postponements. They all have their rewards. Their eternal sentence awaits.
