It wasn't to this level, and not whilst gun control is a hot subject

Yes it was. In fact, it was worse. 

"More than 60 people lost their lives amid the looting and fires during the Los Angeles riots that ravaged the city over five days starting April 29, 1992. Ten were shot to death by law enforcement officials. Forty-fourpeople died in other homicides or incidents tied to the rioting."

And two years later.

Lots of young kids here who don't remember the early 90s even. But yeah, this has been a problem for ages, only difference now is we have smartphone cameras and two black people have decided to shoot back.
