Y’know, Denizens, the surprise is not that Rodney King finally kicked the bucket (he was 47).
The surprise is that – given his continued history with drugs & alcohol and making seemingly continuous appearances in the judicial system – it took so long for him to finally go.
(Incidentally, that’s the reason for the category – where else would I put it?  I don’t feel like memorializing him, and I don’t hate him at all, so “Good riddance” is inappropriate, as well.)

Nah, good riddance is appropriate. He should not have been speeding, doing drugs while speeding, and should not have resisted arrest.
He is to blame for the riots.
