NOT. GUILTY.
What's the difference between OJ Simpson and John Elway????
One DRIVES a slow white Bronco; the other IS a slow white Bronco.
Arguably, one of my favorite jokes of all time.
One of the most colossal wastes of time in history. Nine months of trial but the jury had their verdict from day one.
Al Cowlings drove the Bronco.
once the judge decided to be a celebrity instead of a judge it was all over
Did you follow the trial at all? The judge, lawyers, evidence... none of it mattered. The only thing that mattered was OJ sharing the same skin color as the jury.
I guess the same is true when white cops shoot unarmed minorities. And is not get found guilty.
had the press been kept out and the trail not turned into a public circus the result may well have been different
Yeah - once the defense decided on their strategy - the die was cast. It was, in a way, "revenge" for the Rodney King verdict a couple years prior.
If the trial had been held in Santa Monica instead of Downtown - perhaps there would have been a "guilty" verdict. But there probably would have been riots too. Once again. That wouldn't have been a good thing.
It is what it is. I feel bad for the Goldman and Brown family members. They've never received full justice. OJ is a free man. But most everyone today admits/knows that he is a murdering piece of shit.
That and some catchy tag lines for the camera specifically, "If the glove don't fit you must acquit."
That's exactly what it was. Revenge for Rodney Thang. If they hadn't acquitted OJ then LA would've burned to the ground. Mob rules.
And Clark and Darden were so overmatched vs. Simpson's lawyers. It was the football equivalent of USC vs. Wilma Wonderbread Jr. High.
Wanna know the real reason OJ was acquitted? Do a search for 'Rampart 90' A very corrupt police force that no citizen trusted. The tv show The Shield was based on the scandal as were several movies. Had little to do with skin color of defendants or jury members other than no blacks in LA trusted the police do to their intense corruption.
That was a hell of a day. It was the 21st birthday of one of my friends and he insisted on not getting drunk on his 21st birthday. A group of us went to a bar to watch the Knicks finals game against the Rockets and we watched it and the chase at the same time. Everybody kept buying rounds of shots for my friend’s birthday and he kept just passing them to over to me. I woke up the next morning and rolled out of bed, screaming because I had scraped my entire right shin, then went to bed where it got stuck to my sheet. I wish I had remembered that before I rolled out of bed.
On this topic I like this Norm MacDonald joke.
Chris Rock said it best in his video you can YouTube...look it up...if you are black..."How not to get your ass beat by the police." Look it up....
Some people (Michael Brown) get killed because they can't follow the simplest of orders from the badge.
Obey the law, shut the fvck up and do what you are told....
Take this to the test board or educate yourselves with the Chris Rock video...
Educate YOURSELF on biased white juries by paying attention to the news. Not a comedy sketch from Chris Rock who wrote a sketch to appease a white audience - if that is your best effort to defend your position, you are in serious trouble.
Biased white juries have been around since the dawn of this country. But like everything else Caucasian America refuses to understand or acknowledge this aspect of American culture.
Try not to be so dense.

"Educate YOURSELF on biased white juries by paying attention to the news.

The "news" has become the comedy...
