O.J. represents the misjustice put on all black men....by many African Americans.
I had black friends..knew so many black folks during that trial/his arrest...It was amazing how most all believed he was innocent(African Americans)...It was a race issue.This whole thing has been since the begining...(My opinion)
It was more..than who was smarter..more brighter..had more common sense...It was a race issue.
The whole investigation was not..but tainted when one officer was racist,said racist things..what have you...Mark Furman.
I remember at my work..all African Americans...and those who actualy imigrated from Africa...JUMPED FOR JOY..that he was aquitted of murder...I worked in a Nursing Home back then.
Hugging..Jumping in the air...even on the speaker they applauded.
That's my memory on/how black & white American's felt about this trial.
The whole thing was racist..and it's a fact this is the only way how this SAGA can be explained.
To me...it was not a racist issue....That one asshole detective...paid more in his lifetime for his stupidity..Than O.J. did...using the race card...and dodging a murder rap.
I don't see this as a triumph for the African Community(Him being proved innocent)...I don't see how O.J. is an example of black....representation in any form..He was a football star,aquitted of a double murder.
I'm not a racist....Saying my two bits..
He represented how alot felt..that were Black Americans...That was scary..because the jury felt the same way.(mostly black)
Was justice served?...I guess so...If you can call it that?
This is what scares me...His celebrity status now days.."is" that he got away with murder....Am I wrong?
Robert Blake is as guilty as shit....whether his wife was white..or black makes no difference to me.
So I guess we gota stomach all this crap....
As far as I'm concerned..Al Sharpton..and Jesse Jackson should of been holding hands with O.J. on his release from jail..after those murders....Because the guy is innocent to most black Americans.
Let me remind you all once again..I worked in a very deverse job back then(during his trial)...Nursing Homes..are very deverse..
What he represented to me..was the culture difference with those I knew(Black Americans),who felt he was being railroaded.
It was a scary feeling..because I perceived it..as justice not being served...due to racism.
The sad thing is..when they went to arrest O.J...he was was fleeing...runing..crying..had a gun to his head,gona kill himself etc...He was very guilty in his actions..when bringing him in for those double murders.
A good team of lawyers..pull a race card..and he had every African American on his side...He was an Icon..he represented those...who put aside justice,and felt like this was a white man issue.
It makes me sick to my stomach..that people pose in pictures with this guy anywhere he goes....Especialy when they are my age..or less..I'm geting old..but at airports,restaurants..on the golf course...Everybody wants a picture with O.J....99% don't even know what teams he played for...Let alone he played an idiot in the Naked Gun Movies.
I wouldn't be surprised...no matter what jury thrown at this guy..who mocks humanity..Would have 1,2..or 3 other stupid people on it,with this guys mind frame.
Because I can tell you now...everybody I worked with back in the old days..This same kinda mind frame could come out again.....It would make no difference to those who thought/still believe he's innocent of those 1994 murders..to easily find him innocent of these new charges as well.
That case..was so cut & dried..that this case is just that as well...Just as if he & his idiot side kicks went into a bank..and emptied a safe deposit box...I feel the evidence is..that cut & dried in this case as well.
He's gona try to be the victim again..and represent many in this county like he did before.
That idiot..who said he'd drop the charges..on his side now.?...Pull a gun in Nevada on someone..Don't matter after that..that's a crime..
We Americans have a shady history ourself.
It's sick when Race issues play a part...because O.J. is a case of pure guilt.
We are guilty too..Our history...But this generation sees the truth in things...we do...we do..You know dam well we do.
We all have a different version of it..like the O.J. Jury.
A crime has been committed..not murder this time.
If racism is a factor..he's innocent...If the facts & evidence are looked at with a measure of justice...he'd be guilty.
I guess it all comes down to who the jury is.
Laws go down the toilet..when racism plays a part..It did in the 60's with the KKK...and the result comes out to this day..in a mostly black jury with O.J.
That's what O.J. represents to me......
Him being found guilty back in 94..I would not be jumping for joy..or hugging people....It would of been justice..and nothing more than that.
His innocence was like the first landing on the moon...from my experience from the black community.
I honestly feel he is/was guilty of those murders....
So do ..well I need not go there.
I'm bumbed...he comes across like a beacon..or one who struggles for the African Community..as a sense of pride he was innocent?...He's as guilty as shit....Those who believe he's innocent..also scare me...That's when reality comes to the door...What do we have in common?..Relate On?
I didn't relate on the Rodney King Issue either....and I'm not gona with O.J. either.
