Review title: Questionable language
Product review: Regarding Rodney King's robbing a Korean store with a tire iron, the author says, "perhaps it was the need for money, perhaps it was the stress, perhaps it was the feeling of helplessness and hopelessness over his lack of options". After King gets away in his car, the Korean owner is able to get the license number so King can get arrested. The author says King was just "luckless as usual".I like the way she distances King's motives from his own self by using the article "the" instead of "his" to describe greed, stress, and helplessness/hopeless. Subtle, but telling. And damn that Korean store owner for giving Rodney bad luck yet again! I mean, hey, doesn't he appreciate that King just hit him with a tire iron and didn't shoot his ass? He ought to have been more grateful and given Rodney a pass I guess?Maybe it's just me, but this king of language is offensive. WHO IS THE VICTIM IN THIS ROBBERY?!
