"The nearly weeklong, widespread rioting killed more than 50 people, injured more than 1,000 people and caused approximately $1 billion in damage, about half of which was sustained by Korean-owned businesses. Long-simmering cultural clashes between immigrant Korean business owners and predominately African-American customers spilled over with the acquittals."
I just looked into this after you posted and couldn't find evidence. 4 people were killed in shootouts the Koreans, but I couldn't find any record of their ethnicity. Additionally, the Korean defenders accidentally killed one of their own in the chaos.
Every news report I came across says the people who attacked Korea town were predominately black.
At least one of the Koreans themselves during it were talking about who was attacking them. Not sure if it was in Count Dankula's Roof Koreans video or in the 25th Anniversary thing that A&E did a few years back.
You are WAY wrong on this one. I married into a family that had direct experience with the riots. The Koreans were in utter shock that their friends and neighbors and customers would turn on THEM in a time of crisis. They thought they were all in this together. This event dramatically changed the alliance between Koreans and blacks in southern CA, and made Koreans all over the US more independent. And if you want proof - just watch videos on this event. Lots of footage from a helicopter pilot named Albert Tur, now named Zoey Tur who famously threatened to choke out Ben Shapiro.
edit - wow, I'm really worried that history is re-writing or forgetting this event. I watched it unfold on TV (we were scared out of our minds) and then I later married into a Korean family who were part of it. Rodney King was beaten by LA Police, and the cops pretty much got off. Blacks went absolutely ballistic over this, and some took to local damage, just burning block after block. Some (blacks) also helped ease the situation, and saved people who were got in the wrong place. This was a BIG event of my childhood and many people feared it would spread throughout the country. Koreans also came to hate the police and white people, because they sustained the most damage and our legal process did nothing to help them at the time or afterward. Call it a giant red pill for the Koreans.
That isn't exactly accurate. Certain Rooftop Koreans may have been engaging with Hispanic Bangers but Hispanic Bangers certainly are not the reason that Rooftop Koreans exist.
Technically it was Hispanics gangs like MS13 that were attacking the Korean Businesses and burning them.

^^^^This is the truth. Eyewitness here.
Truth. I was there.

Do you have any source for your claim?
It was American Patriot David Joo

Excellent source. Limited proof, but it seems that's as good as we'll get.

I stand (probably) corrected.
Everyone should watch the video OP linked above.

Aren't Hispanics counted as whites in crime statistics?
Yes. Many federal and state agencies list Hispanic crimes as committed by Whites.
Texas has finally stopped this but they are unusual.
