Rodney King riots escalate?

All Rounder

Gone Fishin'
On March 3rd of 1991, a man by the name of Rodney Glen King lll was brutally beaten by four police officers while watched by several others. The video, called the Holliday Video, was released showing the beating occurring. I will not link the video for those sensitive but trust me, it is on Youtube and a clip can be seen on Wikipedia. Rodney was under the influence of alcohol and was resisting arrest, but it didn't help, for what would occur a month and twenty-six days later had not been seen in twenty-seven years, when the L.A Riots began, resulting in almost a billion in financial loss and fifty-five death, required the Californian National Guard to come in on May 4th to finally end the riots.

But what if they didn't? What if the riots got even worse, like martial law levels worse?
