I thought you were part white? Of course you're guilty, my friend -- you owe their side for the heinous crimes of your side.
Look at the sides of the Joe Horn incident Look at the sides of the Rodney King incident Look at the sides of the Robbie Tolan incident [shooting in bellaire] Look at the sides of the Chad Holly incident [HPD beating] Look at the sides of the Ida Delaney incident [Drunken Cops chase down and killed this lady] Look at the sides of the Bryon Gillium incident Rocket River
*sigh* Did I lump you into that group . . . or one poster in this thread? [well maybe two cause I see his . . ahem . .friend came out of hiding. . . I wonder if the Tri-fecta is out there ] I am not on a murderer's side. As for O.J. - I have little regard for him. He is a idiot and a fool. I have alot disdain for the man. alas . . he is an idiot and a fool in which the system was not able to convict of murder. In that sense he is similar to Joe Horn I feel as strongly about Joe Horn and you seem to feel about O.J. We know 100% that Joe Horn killed two people. Alot of people think Baretta [Robert Blake] killed his wife. . but it does not get this much attention and bile. Why is that? Turnabout is fair play. I find the anger about this situation . . .amusing. All things considered. Rocket River ok. I will leave ya'll alone . . .
On a scale of 1-10, 1 being Steve Guttenberg and 10 being Tom Cruise, how famous/well-known do you think OJ Simpson was at the time of the murder? Now please give me the same rating for Robert Blake.
These sides? About 200 people lined the intersection, with many raised fists. Chunks of asphalt and concrete were thrown at cars. Some yelled, "It's a black thing." Others shouted, "This is for Rodney King." In gruesome scenes recorded by the TV news helicopters, an 18-wheel truck was stopped in the intersection, its driver dragged from the cab and beaten by the mob. He lay bleeding and motionless for several minutes. Cars were abandoned nearby, their windshields smashed and fenders battered. Two cars were smashed in the intersection. A brown Ford Wrangler came to a stop when the driver -- who appeared to be an Asian male in his 30s or 40s -- was hit by a rock thrown through the front windshield. When he got out of the vehicle, he was smashed in the face with a bottle, leaving him bloodied and dazed. A few people braved the mob to assist victims. Meanwhile, looters declared open season on Tom's Liquor and Deli. "They started looting, coming out with bottles and cases, anything they could grab," E.J. said. http://tech.mit.edu/V112/N24/riots.24w.html
"These weren't the kind of men you send to jail... You don't make the punishment fit the crime; you make the punishment fit the criminal."
I feel exactly the same way as you about the Joe Horn situation. And honestly, I wouldn't file it away under "turnabout is fair play" when one man gets away with murder just because another man of a different race also got away with it.
Fair Enough. But it is not a 1 to 1 ratio. We cannot divorce ourselves from a bloody past and act like it did not happen. It is like when someone goes around slapping all the nerds then . . . he gets slaps and wants to whine and cry louder than any nerd its not right . . . . but it is extreme to me. . .for that person to act like their pain is more important more painful than the other's pain. [overly simplified analogy] Let's be honest. 60 yrs ago . . O.J. would have never made it to trial. He would have been drug out of jail . . . and lynched. Evidence or not. . . . simply the hint .. the allegation . . was enough for him to be killed. The fact that he even had a trial . . . shows progress. Rocket River
Ron Goldman....has a jewish tint to his last name. OJ- Guilty of hate crime? Just sayin.... Out of curiousity, how many double murders 150 yrs later will it take to make reparations? The 'justice' people find in OJ getting off scott free is baffiling.
You need to move to the middle east...you would fit in perfect there. Payback always gets you where you want to go doesn't it?

This statement was a little too harsh for your reply, my apologies...I just think you overgeneralize things with a bigoted point of view a lot times.
