Rodney King tells TMZ ... he sincerely hopes Trayvon Martin's family will eventually get justice ... but says Trayvon's case makes him realize how lucky he was to have his beating captured on tape.
Just days before the 20 year anniversary of the L.A. riots, King was in NYC promoting his new book in which he describes his journey through the violence ... from the infamous beating at the hands of LAPD officers ... to his public plea for peace.
"It's not one day that goes by that I don't think about the incident ... I get these headaches ... when I [sniff], my sinuses start burning."
Now, with the Trayvon Martin case stirring up similar emotions as his legal saga ... King says the judicial system is a "slow process" .... and adds, "I'm hoping he gets justice for his family ... 'cause he's no longer here, so for his family."

I am not getting what people mean anymore by, “get justice.” Apparently, it means that the other guy gets put away in the big house and rots there the rest of his life, regardless of witnesses, circumstances, and evidence.
Sicne he and Obama are illiterate, I wonder who wrote Mr. King’s book.
Anyway, Mr. King, the initial part of the tape you mentioned to support your beatings is NEVER SHOWN . . . you know, the part where you were flailing your arms around with chains that almost seriously injured the cops who were trying to get you secured. Huh? Where’s THAT part of this tape that exonerates you, Mr. King?
Isn’t it great that all these “victim” punks are crawling out from under rocks to make a buck off of Zimmerman’s bodily injuries from St. Trayvon?
I am not getting what people mean anymore by, “get justice.”
Reparation$.
Pretty sure that was from the drugs you were doing Rodney, not the beating.
***but says Trayvon’s case makes him realize how lucky he was to have his beating captured on tape. ****
Yep. Cops beating down a druggie high on “Angel Dust” after the tasers failed to stop him.
Tell me, Rodney, how much of that settlement money do you still have?
Is it me or is the news media trying its best to incite a race riot??? Dragging this A**hole out does nothing but agitate the potential rioters.
“... I get these headaches ... when I [sniff], my sinuses start burning.”
That, Rodney, is hell getting a foothold.
That's the cocaine, Rodney.
Reginald Denny’s beating was caught on tape.
Did he get his “reparations” from the Sharpton/Jackson klan yet?
Justice was given to Hoodie McSkittles when he got shot.
It should send the message to the thugs in Holders race that they can’t jump on someone and beat them to death without paying for it with their lives.
Screw King and Screw Martin. King should wind up exactly like Martin.
I’m pleasantly surprised that many of the article’s comments at TMZ are pro-Zimmerman. I assumed a site like that would be a cesspool of left-wing loons who believe whatever the race pimps tell them.
