Rodney King Riots Justifiable?

The Rodney King case put the problem of police brutality against minorities, specifically African Americans in the spotlight.This was the chance for this problem to be recognized and be brought to justice because their has been so many incidents before between police and African Americans that had remained quiet. This was not the case however because the four policemen charged with beating Rodney King were found not guilty and were released. This created an outrage in Los Angeles and a riot that would last for three days. This riot was deadly because African Americans out of rage from the verdict and caused anarchy. In the documentary we see a man pulled from his truck and beat repetitively. Was that innocent man getting beat up justifiable because of the verdict for Rodney King? Does it come down to an eye for an eye? In my personal opinion it comes down to morals and i don't believe that them beating that man could be justifiable because of the verdict. They laid out the same scenario that Rodney King was in however they are doing the same thing that they are mad about. This caught the attention of the media and stressed how mad the people were. In the defense of the rioters, they believed that this riot and violent method was the only way left to actually bring about change and to bring justice which it did in the end because the four men were put on trial again and found guilty. If this riot had not happened than more incidents of police brutality would have gone on. In conclusion I personally believe that the cause of there riots can be justifiable but when it came down to looting and beating innocent people that's where it became unjustifiable, even if it they did it to make a point.
