  • It's his fault. He was impersonating a pinata.

  • What you don't see in this video is that he was involved in a high speed police chase, resisted arrest several times, struck and officer, and continued to resist once again after being tasered. A bit excessive, yes, assault with a deadly weapon, NO.

    If you don't want to get beat, don't resist, plain and simple.

  • @Dccole3214 Finally, someone who actually knows the story behind the case! With the framing of the media to spin this story different ways and typical American ignorance, its hard to find (or even accept) the truth. Everyone watching this has to remember that these officers are human just like you. If you had to pursue this drunken goon on a deadly 8 mile chase, witness him striking you or a fellow officer, and continue to resist arrest, wouldn't you be pissed and afraid as all hell too?

  • F.T.P fuck the police

  • a public lynching sanctioned by taxpayer money

  • @thegill666 Conduct some research on the case and its background before you publicly embarrass yourself with callow, ignorant remarks such as this.

  • @a1z26y25b2

    man fuck u da south has not forgotten about da civil war it is stil in their minds the former kkk members r now police officers holding a police badge with a grudge, the racial profiling of black men which feeds the prison industrial complex which is modern day slavery hell all of these black actors singers r economically lynched via the mass media for common crime that da white man does much worse so stfu we as citizens r paying 4 this state sanctioned lynchings

  • !!!! MOTHERFUCKING COPS SUCK DICK, THUMBS UP !!!!!!!!!!

  • @PATROSFUCK On crack, refused arrest, broke a set of handcuffs and still resisted. yeah the cops are to blame not rodney who never did anything with his life.

  • L.A.P.D..... los santos GTA lol

  • "Assault with a deadly weapon will be one of the charges"

    After conference: *Drives down to Police Station and throws a party with the cops that beat Rodney*

  • If a man commits a crime such as aggravated assault with a deadly weapon, there should be severe consequences.

    If a COP, who is OBLIGATED by LAW to uphold JUSTICE does the equivalent such as in this case, the consequences should be TWICE that of the former AND it must be PUBLICLY DISPLAYED.

  • I mean fuck cops, and they were brutal for sure but he was drunk driving

  • @LazyBen612 actually, he was high as a kite speeding 150mph, got our of the car, and tried to attack the police officers

  • Good job police whoop that ugly crackhead!

  • Beat that asshole crackhead

  • Fuck these fucking pigs! Maddiox3 is probably a fucking pig himself. Pigs are nothing more than uniformed thugs. Pigs are not above the law. Pigs should not be allowed to run red lights and stop lights, no matter if its an emergency. Pigs should die when they commit murder. Pigs should be stripped of their badge and sent to prison when they commit brutality against innocents. I'm sure a lot of prisoners would love to ass fuck them.

  • @mccloud524 i agree except about the lights iif ur mum was getting stomped to death in the gutter would u want the cops to speed and save her or stop at lights and let her die

  • Comment removed

  • @mccloud524 dude you don't know anything

  • @mccloud524 king wasn't an innocent man he didn't deserve a beat down like that but if he did try and drive away from the police and just pulled over and complied with the police officers none of that would've happened

  • The police can murder a man on camera and still get away with it.

  • Yessssssssssss BEATDOWN KAPOW

  • After Finding Out The WHOLE Story, I've Come To A Conclusion. He Didn't Get Beat Up Because He Was Black. He Got Beat Up Because He Was An Asshole. Lol. Assholes Get Beat Up All The Time. Either Way, I Look Forward To Reading Your Racist Retorts.

  • @Maddiox3 you are so ignorant..

  • @SuperBlakey1983 YOU are ignorant,for telling people they are ignorant,when they tell a part of the truth you dont like.Police knows what horror can happen when you drive drunk. And start a car chase.

  • @SupersonicMojoJojo yea douche, that would be their JOB! Im talkin about excessive force used AFTER he was already immobilized. N not just the king case you simple bitch.

  • Comment removed

  • @Maddiox3 Look at the facts. This guy was drunk out of his mind behind the wheel of a car. He led the police on a 30 minute chase. He coulda killed somebody. Were the cops "excessive"? Yes they were. Did he deserve it? That's a matter of opinion. The situation isn't as black and white as you think. And "race" is hardly a factor in this, I believe.

  • what it doesnt show is the 30 minutes of car chase and erratic behavior before this. king was/is an alcoholic; look at him now.. celebrity rehab? celebrity? cops are expected to be perfect but there just human...this is def excessive force but the riots that resulted were also pretty excessive..

  • The officers should have attempted an arrest at 0:20. Yet they continue to club him for another 20 seconds when the guy is rolling on the the ground NOT RESISTING. It's amazing how these fucking pigs got away with it.

  • Fuck Rodney King he led the police on a high speed chase doing 120 mph he was 6' 3"and doing crazy shit after smoking crack and then resisted arrest. I have had worse beatings from the police just for looking at them the wrong way and asking why they were questioning me. But because he is black all of a sudden it's a race thing? People are morons it doesn't matter your race or religion it's all about being on a power trip. As For Mr. King he deserved a lot more for the shit he pulled.

  • The big joke with this was Kings amazing ability to outrun police crown vics and helicopters in his 89 Hyundai Excel 5 door hatch, at the claimed speed of 115mph, wow, who knew those could do over 100! You can see it standing proudly in the back-round.

  • niigger

  • @onastynastyo honkey ;)

  • Cops messed up on this one

  • Whoever is making excuses for these cunts needs to shut the fuck up. Even if it's true that he tried to flee, the video shows that one hit was enough to get him in a condition where he has no chance of fighting back/escaping. The other 100 or so were illegal and everyone involved should be jailed for a few years. Disgusting.

  • No

  • The cops had all the rights to treat this man the way they did. If y'all would have seen the beginning of the video when he fleed from the cops and beat up everyone of them as they approached him, y'all would agree

  • @bbaasseebbaall1 your black aren't you...

  • So your telling me the police have the right to smash someone down with 53-56 baton hits even though he would have probably given up with in 20 hits or less if he was smart. you need to go watch this and I you say the cops had any right to bash any of these people then you sir are fucking stupid. /watch?v=XxlL0I5AWLI&lc=Q_JnPs­T8pT69AHLiqblFRIaHVaoBsImJFs8P­4OzseLo&context=G2ef419fFAAAAA­AAADAA&feature=g-all-c

  • @rayman1231231 It doesn't matter if the man was drunk, speeding or belligerent. He had no weapon and he is one to fifteen other people. They had no right to beat the living shit out of him. Cops are power hungry  sociopaths that follow one another like sheep.

  • Why can't the police get it right. U guys are too dumb.

  • If that dumdass wasnt drunk and didnt speed off then it would not happened and you dont know if Rodney King was talking shit to the cop too. Also im pretty sure the cops got mad because in the high speed chase they dropped thier donuts and coffee.

  • how did I get here. I was watching a lil b video just a second ago.....

  • i hate american politic and the system and the muthafucking Policakjeaseasnp

  • Simple put by the greats

    Fuck the police and the LAPD and u white bread chicken shit mother fuckers fuck you!

  • absoulutley disgusting .. first off idgaf if he kept getting up it dont take no damn 15 different officers to keep beating him with a fucking stick an kicking him .. dats beyond trying to jus restrain .. like gtfo .. thats brutality .. period .. no1 deserves that .. disgust me how people could even agree with that @ all .. sick bastards .. hope u get da shyt beat outta u one day an imma jus laugh @ you .. this is not okay & dis type of crap should not be acceptable @ all .. period ..

  • these motherfuckers should be fucking hung. this is disgusting.

  • @StarFleetVeteran I hope you get beaten for no reason. Nobody will give a shit because you're the kind of ass hole who'd be beating Rodney King.

  • @StarFleetVeteran HE DID DO THE EXACT THING.

  • Police get away with everything. Fucking pigs. In Arkansas a while back, there was some mentally retarded dude with his door open and his house a wreck. Some stupid bitch cop ran in there and started screaming at him. He, obviously flustered and mentally handicapped, screamed back at her to get out of his house. He apparently ran towards her, suddenly. She fucking shot and killed him. Cops must get bored. I'm nearly convinced that they look for a chance to shoot someone or at least beat em down

  • @kissmyanthia1000 fucking racist

  • Comment removed

  • Put his race aside for God's sake, cops cannot just pull someone over and beat them up. What if this was your father or brother?Regardless of his race, you just don't do that to someone,they could have killed him.

  • thats bull shit those cops did not even get in trouble that pussy ass judge said they are innocent that bitch judge seen that dam tape hoe thats why i dont like WHITE PEOPLE

  • @97snipa So is it wrong to hate all BLACK PEOPLE since a bunch of them are thugs and they always pull the slavery card. No it isn't. If you hate a race as a whole then your are by definition a racist. Only ignorant people judge others by the outward appearance. You are no better than racist white people.

  • @97snipa You do know Jurys make verdicts, right?

  • @97snipa Actually they did go to prison a year after. In federal court they sentenced two of the officers 2 years and a half. They should have gotten more time under federal law but don't say you don't like White People and so on cause it makes you look ignorant as hell. Just Saying.

  • Filthy pigs.

  • Just a typical day in LA.

  • fuck the blacks

  • @CryptWarrior69 FUCK anyone who hates some one due to their color...(That Means YOU TOO)

  • did they tell him his rights?

  • Fucken white cops and the fucken judge whO acquitted the three "officers" in the King beating.

  • So this is how it started...

  • I've lives in Boise, Idaho, 18 years now as I left Pasadena after these riots. I decided that I cannot have my wife carry a gun to go to Altadena to get milk...

    The police were wrist slapped for their criminal behaviors. Not right.

    The rioting and looting afterwards showed the cavemen mentallity of the denizens.

    I visit, but I'm glad I don't live there...

  • @sheracad making Boise look retarded. Stay classy potato man!

  • "Chief Gates today called the LAPD a model department and said he has no plans to resign"

    HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA­HHHAHAAHAHAHHA

    HEY DUMBASS ENJOY YOUR RIOTS

  • 1 Black Guy gets beat up, and the whole city is set on fire.

  • notice how the media says they "beat a man they just pulled over" when actually king was fleeing from them for an 8 mile chase

  • To everyone saying "fuck the police". Stop. You're being ignorant as fuck. Fuck THESE policemen, not all policemen. If the US or any country didn't have Law enforcement, the country would be in shambles. Don't be so ignorant and blame every policemen, because some of them are good men and women, protecting you every day.

  • @AlexLong1000 ur a pussy. probly grew up in a suburb

  • @jt12212 No, I'm intelligent.

  • @AlexLong1000 hey i think that most of the people think that because of all the brutal beat downs the cops have and not yrting to say the trained cops

  • @AlexLong1000 FUCK THE POLICE MUTHAFUCK THE POLICE

  • fuck you bitch were do you live i will kick your teeth in you fucking murderr pig FUCK YOU BITCH

  • @yoyoyo88252 Thank you for proving my point.

  • @AlexLong1000 Well good sir go watch this, then see if you can tell same good thing about cops /watch?v=XxlL0I5AWLI&lc=Q_JnPs­T8pT69AHLiqblFRIaHVaoBsImJFs8P­4OzseLo&context=G2ef419fFAAAAA­AAADAA&feature=g-all-c

  • @AlexLong1000 FUCK ALL POLICE...wake the fuck up and realize we live in POLICE STATE. Fail you fuckin zero...police are as useless as you are. They are bad men and women...insecure, no self-esteem fucks that got beat up in high school, so they become police, get a badge and GUN, and think they have a right to bully people around as adults. THERE IS NO NEED FOR POLICE. PERIOD.

  • @c0mpletelyNumb Okay then. Don't like it? Leave. Move to a country where the police aren't so involved. Like, say, Ethiopia. Because they're doing SO well over there without a police force. No need for police? Do you know what a bomb squad is? Of course you don't, because you're retarded. But a bomb squad is a unit of POLICE FORCE that is sent in to diffuse bombs, to save peoples lives. They have done this many times. That is just ONE of MANY reasons why the Police is needed. Stay retarded.

  • @AlexLong1000 yes a bomb squad...useful...but not necessary in my neck of the woods. Perhaps you should move out of the sticks. The fact that your only retort is that of the necessity of a "bomb squad" just shows how much ignorance you have towards this debate and police in general. And FYI we have plenty of people that know how to diffuse bombs that aren't "police." They are as useless as you and your shitty reply. #FAIL #KILLURSELF

  • @c0mpletelyNumb You know, I was gonna give you an intelligent reply, but then I saw you're using Twitter hashtags....on fucking youtube. So obviously your intelligence barely competes with that of a Walrus, I'm not gonna bother.

    I'll say it again. Don't like it? Get the fuck out of the country. America doesn't need retards like you in their country. And before you ask, I'm not American.

  • @c0mpletelyNumb Umm, no we do not live in a police state. You're thinking of China, where no one can speak out, have guns, or say in public "WE LIVE IN A POLICE STATE!" You are an ignorant piece of shit. Who are you going to call if someone just robbed you? Oh yeah...

  • @c0mpletelyNumb Oh, and if we lived in a police state, then we wouldn't have had a trial, we wouldn't have had this on the news, we wouldn't have had someone with a camera to catch it either.

  • @AlexLong1000 i think when people say "fuck the police" they mean the department, not the officers themselves. alot of cops who use excessive force don't face any consequences other than suspension with pay, a.k.a a vacation. it seems like in most cases, when it comes to an officer using illegal excessive force, the department doesn't give due punishment.

    i know most cops are good people, but sometimes the departments are terrible and stupid as fuck.

  • @AlexLong1000 eat my cock bitch 8=====D fuck the popo'z niggah, blood all day b'z up nigga b^

  • @95kjb Lmaooo. So I'm guessing you're black. So Am I. Your Comment Embarrassed Me. Please Don't Say Anything Else. You're Not Helping.

  • @Maddiox3 mexicano bitch get it right

  • Comment removed

  • @AlexLong1000 well clearly when we say that, obviously we do not mean it to the good ones.

  • @B4M409 Well you may not, but plenty do mean it towards ALL police officers, as you could probably see from replies to my comment.

  • @AlexLong1000 Yea i do agree with you. But when Saul in Pineapple Express says it it's hilarious you can't deny that.

  • @AlexLong1000 FUCK all police who use the badge in wrong way

  • cops fucking suck this is why no one likes pigs. police brutality anyone? fuck the police

  • The moral to this story is: Dont Do 110mph for 8 miles with cops chasing you. 

  • he got what he deserved

  • like eazy E says - fuck da police!

  • fuck the pig, no pork on my fork!

  • Hey I have this totally crazy idea... Tell black people to stop breaking the law and they won't have to deal with the police in the first place. Think about it

  • @champbella1 fuck you, ignorant ass cracker not all black people break the law

  • @kingstar2423 who makes up 90% of the population in jail? yeah thats right, black people!!

  • @pantherlax01 stupid fuck, get you facts right. yes there might be more blacks then white in jail but no where 90%

  • @kingstar2423 Calm down mate. Why are you getting worked up? Dont be mad at me because I know the real statistics of blacks and whites in jail.

  • @pantherlax01 lol man are you even american?

  • @kingstar2423 Why does it matter? Why dont you go fight a police officer then get your ass beat.

  • @pantherlax01 lmao guess what stupid fuck my dads an officer, get off my cock troll and go suck mommys tit

  • @kingstar2423 No hes not.

  • @kingstar2423 than* lol

  • @champbella1 yes, because we all know police don't just pick on people for no reason and this beating is justified. you really need to wak up

  • fuck the police and the rodney king. he need ass kick by driving, but that's too much from fucking cops. Guns don't kill people. Police does

  • LOL Rodney King enjoyed every beat that beating he took. Laying on the ground he thought of mansions, various condos, Cadillacs, mercedes-benz, yachts, jets, and all kids of stuff.

  • King pushed one of the officers before the camera was in focus, so the officers began to beat him. They knew he had a criminal record so they used extensive force. Even after this incident King continued in his criminal ways and went to jail several times afterwards for drinking, speeding, and other crimes. But police took the use of force too far.

  • Hate is a Factor of Fear...

  • NWA waz right

  • should have beat him into a coma

  • But he DIDN'T kill a by stander however he DID get a beating from the police, they already acknowledged he was unarmed and he was completely out numbered and toxicology reports found no PCP. Being drunk doesn't turn him into some hulk, this alongside many other arrests which go unseen are not the use of necessary force or protection of the public, just a plain and simple gang(police) attack from an inferiority complex with a badge, a kosh and a taser.

  • rodney king is a fucking dick, and so are those pigs( i use the term pigs when refering to cuntish coppers, some police officers are sound) its not about race its about poeple. and unfortunatly poeple can be dicks

  • BEAT DAT NIGGA

  • NWA said it best!

  • @corylee8180 that still doesnt give the cops a right to smash his face in with baseball bats

  • Those cops are stupid he's not even resisting and they're beating him anyway

  • @PiNoY17GaNgStEr In my opinion, they should have beat him harder.

  • American History X

  • @AlejandroSG18 Tip nr1 to not get beaten by the police: OBEY THE LAW

  • First off the guy that was getting beaten for resisting arrest second he was on parole third he was arrested again for DUI

  • disguisting. No wonder Bill Hicks brought this up.

  • @samuriguy909

    Your a scumbag...

  • @JBraundel

    Are you a cop?

  • my dick gets extremely hard everytime I hear of a cop getting shot.

  • @samuriguy909 -_-

  • @Backspace85all your point?

  • @samuriguy909 why would you get hard about cops getting shot? Are you some kind of psycho?

  • Everyday there are acts of police brutality in america. Like in New York a few months ago when people were peacefully protesting at wall street, and the police attempting to ending the situation 'JUSTLY' vicously abused 4 people 4 no reason, or when adam kokesh, the us marine was violently choked and body slammed for dancing peacefully in protest against the law that at the Lincoln memorial (that states that dancing is prohibited at the lincoln memorial).

  • He was just breaking the law, speeding while being high... That's unfair. Poor guy

  • No evidence that race was a factor. Guess what. Police beat up white people, too.

  • @zazozung lol. you dumbass. have you ever heard of the police getting exonerated for doing this to anyone white, or doing this to anyone white period? if you can ever show me any evidence of a group of white police officers gang beating anyone white with so little provocation or resistance offered, I will sincerely apologize. But as it stands, you must either be incredibly young, or very, very naive to believe anything as mindbogglingly dumb as what you just said

  • @justinplatinumice There is no need to swear at me or call me names. I have no doubt the jury in this case was extremely racist. Had King been white the cops would have been convicted. But there is no proof that the beating was motivated by racism. Cops do indeed beat up people of every race. Is L.A.P.D. racist? Probably yes. But I still see no proof that King was beaten because he was black.

  • who else is here because of American History X?

  • A.C.A.B

  • fucking racist

  • fuckk the police !!!!!!11

  • @SwInGoNdEeZoNeS what about the ugly cops? do we have to fuck them too?

  • That was my mom or brother.

  • lots of you miss the point. It is irrelevant what King did, it takes nowhere near that amount of force the subdue him. So what are you saying, that just because you are guilty of a crime and a little bit lippy that the police are entitled to beat you half to death, even for 3 minutes after it is already obvious that he does not need to be subdued anymore? I'm glad im not American.

  • @TeamOfThe80s if thats the case then what did stealing from stores and breaking into places and taking shit have to do with this? why did people just go after the cops or the police station ? there where blacks stealing from others blacks when this happend .

  • They didn't even mention that it was racially motivated.. and they only mentioned the word misconduct when a black officer was on screen..

  • "If you play it backwards, you see the police helping him up."

    -Bill Hicks

  • priory convicted of robbery and threatening to beat a store owner with a crowbar, high on PCP, and driving 117... Everyone would be singing a different toon if he had killed an innocent bystander.

  • @NatureGnome so its ok that the the cops beat him?????

  • @ridonculous187 i don't think anyone accept the police who were there can make that judgment. But from what i have heard, in my opinion, yes. im sure you wont agree, but you asked me.

  • @NatureGnome did you NOT know they tested him for PCP and it was friggin negative meanign he WAS NOT high on friggin PCP!!!

  • @aliceinchainsburns08 they tested him far to late, PCP doesn't stay in your system for long at all, abou 2-4 days. This was admittedly a mistake on the part of the police.

  • Comment removed

  • @NatureGnome american history x. basically edward norton says the same thing. with great detail.

  • @NatureGnome , but he didn't. Everyone would be singing a different "tune" not toon. Learn english asshole.

  • @NatureGnome Yeah but he didn't.

  • @NatureGnome way to take a point out of the movie american history x
