Bill Bratton was with the NYPD until 1996, according to wikipedia, but these riots took place in 2005, when he had already been with the LAPD for 3 years... his relevance in the article is highly confusing. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 12.216.7.145 (talk) 01:25, 3 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Suggested Addition

It would be interesting to see some mention of the socio-economic reasons behind the riots. Knittingand 22:22, 12 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
