Rooftop Koreans

Est. 1992, the Rooftop Koreans made history as a hastily formed group of Korean-Americans who defended their businesses and livelihoods during the L.A. riots. Their numbers largely consisted of volunteers: mostly shop owners and whoever accepted the call to arms- friends, family, and community members alike. The LAPD had largely abandoned the Korean-American community in their greatest time of need (go ahead, look it up), leaving small business owners in Koreatown to essentially fend for themselves against opportunistic looters and thieves. Their spirit has left a profound mark on American small business owners to this day, representing a rallying cry of eternal vigilance against rabid mobs of looters and in more modern days, herds of alleged "anti-fascists" and "peaceful protestors".

Some of the most memorable imagery and live footage of the '92 riots captures the moments when Korean-Americans armed themselves with whatever firearms they could get their hands on and provided overwatch from the rooftops of their privately owned shops and markets (hence the name Rooftop Koreans).

It is worth noting every Korean male is required to provide 2 years of mandatory service in the Republic of Korea Armed Forces.
Give a Korean immigrant a life in the United States, and he'll be the proudest American of them all. But should you choose to burn his home and torch his livelihood, you'll have to deal with the feared Rooftop Koreans: an unstoppable community and force of nature, hailing from the eagle-screeching patriotism of the founding fathers of the U.S. of-fucking-A and the South Korean mainland.

A few volunteers on websites that approve content, while also being Karens, deciding not to publish. While saying "don't take it personally!"
A privilege of karens went to the park to defy a stay at home order of Social distancing and not run the risk catching Coronavirus.

Martin Jackson for President
at first I thought was just two Karens causing trouble but then at the end there was a whole flock of Karens.

WidgettWalls :
Can we just say that a flock of Karens is a privilege? “He got attacked by a privilege of Karens.”
