The recent Watts Riot created a lot of tension between between a community that was a couple hundred strong, and a group of police officers that arrested Marquette Frye, his mother, and his younger brother. The crowd of people impulsively and unconsciously decided to start trying to repel the policemen by use of force. This event then escalated into the Watts Riot. I sincerely hope that no one was seriously injured in this Riot. It saddens me to see the African-American community taking such violent approaches to accomplish their goals.
