By all accounts, the person shot and killed by police was a gang-banging drug dealer. Since all the people rioting probably aren't overly upset that he is dead, it stands to reason that the majority of them are just using it as an excuse to get free stuff via looting.
I just hope that none of my online friends and family from here or at my other forum don't get caught in the middle of this.
