What was rodney King remembered for?
929565
He was known for getting a harsh beat down from the LAPD and for going over 100 miles per hour in a Hyndaui, and saying "can we all just get a long" during a speech to end the rioting after the cops were acquitted for beating him down.

My guess- The LA riots after that bullsh*t verdict in the Rodney King case.

Dr. King's house was bombed Jan 30th, 1956.  He was attending evening services at the First Baptist Church:\n\n"Three nights later, on January 30, I left home a little before seven to attend our Monday evening mass meeting at the First Baptist Church. A member of my congregation had come to the parsonage to keep my wife company in my absence. About nine-thirty they heard a noise in front that sounded as though someone had thrown a brick. In a matter of seconds an explosion rocked the house. A bomb had gone off on the porch. \n\nAfter word of the bombing reached the mass meeting, everybody attempted to keep it from me. People looked at me and then away; one or two seemed about to approach me and then changed their minds. Soon I noticed several of my fellow ministers going in and out of the church in a rather unusual manner, and from this I surmised that something had happened. Unable to restrain my curiosity any longer, I called three of my closest associates and urged them to tell me what had happened. I assured them that I was prepared for whatever it was. Ralph Abernathy said hesitantly, "Your house has been bombed." \n\n-"The Autobiography of Martin Luther King"

Bob is considered a legend because he helped push Rastafarianism into the mainstream light. He also was very politically important in Jamaica, so important that someone tried to have him assasinated and missed by just a few centimeters. The candidate who he rallied for easily won. \n\nAnd when people often think of Reggae they think Bob. To have such name recognition means you've pioneered or at least made the mainstream aware of something. \n\nJr. Gong is, in my opinion, the most political out of the Marleys making music. Stephen and Ziggy are okay, but Jr. Gong goes two steps further than most of their music. Ziggy and Stephen have nice feelgood songs with "peace" elements thrown in whereas Damian will say the truth even if it's sort of offensive.

OMG!  Thanks for the fond memories - he was a staple of my childhood as well.  Unfortunately,  I have no idea what the man did during the time proceeding his death.  One thing is certain he is greatlly missed  <sniff>

Well its obvious he is still remembered for his football career or you wouldnt be hearing anything about him.........anywhere.\n\nIf you are a sports fan = remember him for sports\n\nIf you are not a sports fan = remember him for being accused of murder (remember, he wasnt convicted, regardless of what people think, it wasnt proven)\n\nUnlike most of the people commenting here, I would bet the statistics would show most people tend to forgive criminal activities of celebrities.

mrs. king was not just the wife of dr. martin luther king (the leader of the civil rights movement) but she was a hero in her own right. when her husband was killed in1968, she could have easily given up and been bitter. she could hav ended her own life or taken her anger out on others...insterd--being the tremendous being she was--she kepth 'the dream' alive. mrs. king always had a feeling of grace, elegance, and beauty abour her. she was always smiling and willing to work. i had never had the chance to meet her...but i feel as if i know her...she is definetly one of the people i'd like to be like when i grow up (i'm only 13) I'M GONNA MISS HER AND I PRAY THAT OUR DEARLY DEPARTED MRS. CORETTA SCOTT KING'S LEGACY WILL NOT BE FORGOTTEN, BUT CONTINUED EVEN AS I GROW-UP AND GROW OLD.

I love motorhead, but I like "King of Kings" better.  "Get on your knees dog.  Gotta love Lemmy, and Triple H.  I'd bow down to him in a heartbeat, because he is the King of Kings without question.

If their #2 guy takes over and is as nasty as AM al-Z, he'll get the face time.  He just needs to be sure to behead a couple of people... he'll be killed in short order, but his video legacy will live on forever, like Rodney King...
