LAPD Chief Charlie Beck says the trouble in Ferguson reminded him of rioting in Los Angeles in 1992, when four officers were acquitted in the beating of Rodney King. But nothing comparable took place. In Beverly Hills, protesters shut down an intersection of Rodeo Drive; near Leimert Park, several streets were shut down, and about 150 demonstrators found their way onto the 110 Freeway. Jasmyne Cannick, a local commentator on politics and society, went along.
