Answer 4

Answer 5

Yes, I know. I lived there then.

My question however was whether you thought about mentioning that the 1992 riots were not the first.

It was just a question.

Answer 6

oh yes id be glad to thanks for the suggestion

Answer 7

what was it like to live there and experience the riots.?

Answer 8

It was frightening, and in driving from where we lived on the eastern edge of LA County to where my parents-in-law lived near Santa Monica, we could see all the different places where black smoke was rising. It was horrifying to see so many burning buildings and to know that people were losing their homes and their businesses. It seemed it would never end, that no one could ever get the rioters and the fires under control.

Answer 9

oh my god that would be frittering to be there thats crazy
