As a resident of the greater Los Angeles area I have many thoughts about the recent debate over the shooting of a poor knife wielding immigrant by a police officer. Some would even call it murder, "That COP should be behind bars". Apparently the police didn't speak the specific dialect of Mayan Quiche that the now dead man spoke so he was unable to understand that the police wished for him to put down the knife.

But now the chief of police of Los Angeles has explained to us that these immigrants are angry because they are ‘not living the American dream’. I can fully understand that because I am not living the American dream and I am damn angry about it. Where do I go to start my riot?
