Florida didn't want him in their state. They already are filled up with questionable people, they wanted to keep another one out.

Floridians are well aware of Mr. Simpson's background, his wanton disregard for the lives of others, and of his scofflaw attitude with respect to the heinous acts for which he has been found civilly liable. The specter of his residing in comfort in Florida should not be an option. Our state should not become a country club for this convicted criminal," Bondi's statement read.
OJ is lucky the casino didn't call the police, he could have been back in the pokey.

No doubt they had hundreds of security cameras on him and knew his every movem at then casino. They must have had a good reason to remove him, and are able to prove it.

TMZ may have invalid information as the security staff did not report any belligerence when escorting oj from the property. There decision to remove him was more likely to keep the media away.
Yeah, he toned down his belligerence when the security staff showed up.

If he had a lick of sense he wouldn't be getting drunk in bars and getting "unruly". Set free after being accused of killing his wife and her friend, he turns around and gets belligerent with a guy in Las Vegas to get his stupid tchotchkes back. So he goes to prison. Now he's out again -- and he's getting drunk and "belligerent" with people in a casino, endangering his freedom again.

Faced by the security staff, my guess is he realized he was in for potential trouble and became deferential so he wouldn't get into further trouble. Even drunk drivers try to "sober up" when the cops stop them. Does anyone seriously think he was a perfect gentleman, and they confronted him for no reason? That they banned a customer for life for no reason?

Some people with aggression and anger problems mellow out as they get older. That's clearly not the case for OJ, and it's probably only a matter of time before he ends up incarcerated again. I spent six years working with domestic violence offenders court-ordered into treatment and I have zero sympathy for OJ - he's clearly chosen violence and anger over making positive changes in his life.

Why in the world would he hang out in bars and get drunk. That is a recipe for disaster. He is going to get antagonized by people wanting to make a name for themselves. He clearly still has anger issues. Tick tock, tick tock. That is time counting down until his next arrest.

OJ and GZ should hang together. They have plenty in common.

Clarification: he was not drunk . Unless you have his blood alcohol reading to make such an insinuation.
Sorry folks that you remain diligent in your assumptions. I don't know the man and I doubt any of you do either. Til my last breath I believe ppl DO change over time. I cut ppl a break ...Even those standing in firm belief that once a crook always a crook. I'm more concerned on that mantra then the guy who was released and outcast even when he served his time. Next news flash will be the sky is falling...And someone will insist it to be true.

I draw the line on someone nearly decapitating another person. Maybe it's me, but someone who does that does not change. Yeah, he has been released but he will always be the person who killed two people, got off, then robbed another person at gun point. He will eventually go back to prison. That leopard is not changing it's spots.

People are allowing their kids to take pictures with OJ. I wonder if any of these kids know who he actually is, and what he was accused of doing and that he was a convicted felon.

Some people would be surprised by the ludicrous behavior some are capable of. I read of someone bidding $40 for a 20 dollar bill in some auction. On another thread a fellow who claims he knows the detectives who investigated Scott Peterson claimed Peterson's jailers said Peterson gets a lot of fan mail and pics from very attractive women. Weren't some women fans of Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, one of the Boston Marathon bombers?

My guess is he's reckless because he see's his life as destroyed.
