85 “Rooftop Koreans” were Korean-American business owners and residents during the 1992 LA riots. They armed themselves and took to the rooftops of local businesses to defend their community. LA burned; Koreatown stayed quiet. 🇰🇷🇺🇸 (twitter.com) posted 31 days ago by Joys1Daughter 31 days ago by Joys1Daughter +85 / -0 12 comments share 12 comments share save hide report block hide replies
There were only two stores with roof koreans and this has become such a big meme. LAPD arrested all of them and the stores wound up getting looted and burned.
Koreans and the black population also had massive feuds and gang related violence with each other already too.
Shame on LAPD... should have deputized them!
It appears that the LAPD, caused the destruction of them stores.
