Rodney King Dead at 47!! Fiance found him dead at the bottom of a pool!

The year of DEATH

If they left any evidence of foul play there, this could get ugly.

Well...I don't know about that, but I wonder what happened.

Interesting...thanks Op

looks like another sacrifice. 4+7 = 11. Bingo.

rip rodney may god bless you.

RIP funny man.

this is it. he will go to heaven (?) and say: Can't we all just get along? and then, we will live happily ever after (drugged out of our minds)

RIP

Rodney King discusses memoir at L.A. Times Festival of Books
Now 47, beating victim Rodney King is coauthor of 'The Riot Within: My Journey From Rebellion to Redemption.' He expresses forgiveness toward the police officers who beat him March 3, 1991.

It has been 20 years, and Rodney King finds himself in what must be an awkward position: He is an elder statesman of victimhood. Instead of asking questions — "Can we all just get along?"— he is now being asked to answer them.

Can we all just get along? What about Trayvon Martin? How does it feel to be a symbol?

He was on Celebrity Rehab a couple of years ago. My guess is alcohol killed him.

Where does it say he was found in the pool?

Another Usless POS creation by GOD bites the dust -Good Riddance

Bolded part so you can see.

:chair:

omg

lol Mitt Romney. god save the queen.

anyhow... it's odd... we were watching Natural Born Killers the other day and I had to point out Rodney King to someone because they didn't know who that was, or what the significance was of him to the movie....

now he will be in the news today.

so weird how that happens.

I'd feel pretty confident in saying that most likely drugs were involved. Whether it was an overdose or that he was simply to impaired to get out of the pool, I don't know.

OR

We can pretend that he was targeted because he was black and the elite pool drowning squad of the local police finally got their payback </sarcasm>

What a terriblr loss.

My dad marched with him in Birmingham, I thought he was older than 47.

I'm petitioning my mayor to name the main blvd after him. "Rodney King Jr. Blvd."

somebody call Johnnie Cochran

This made me laugh!

RIP Rodney King, if it hadn't been for you we would not have known what kind of animals were the LAPD.

After this citizen filmed the beating LE was on notice...we will film you and we will broadcast it.

Everyone should watch that video...

Never mind.....I did not see it on the link the first time I read it.....but I re-read & saw it now.

A simple person you are.....easily entertained.

Wasn't trying to be a smartass...I figured it was just missed when she skimmed, I've had those days too.

swimming pools are like kryptonite to blacks.

The white man purposefully designed swimming pools to drown black people!

I don't think the person meant it that way...life happens, no biggie. Everyone does stupid stuff, I know I've done my share.

you got a point there. noted.
