OJ had bad knees. He couldn't have done any of that stuff they accused him of.

So, if someone is walking around the development you have never seen before after a rash of break-ins, and ask him what he's doing and that person attacks, that is murder? Even when defending yourself?

Compare that to Nicole Simpson. She was a beautiful woman killed by her husband and a mountain of evidence was against him but he got away with it. And the blacks? They celebrated.

Why does black racism get ignored? Not even when it's blacks against whites does it get ignored: I'm mixed and plenty of black people have made it plain that I should be killed for the crime of being a "mongrel", and that's okay in the eyes of society.

Honestly, as non-PC as it is for me to say, I have to: if you are that concerned with being treated badly for you race, by all means, GO BACK TO AFRICA! No racism, no "white system of oppression."

Perhaps you should read up on those laws and see why the guy was found not guilty. Or continue to declare how the entire justice system is a failure because of one case. Your choice.
Actually, I have a law degree. And just because a law exists does not mean it's a good law.

Well I agree but we are a society of laws, be they good or bad, that must be followed.

Are you serious? The trial showed a divide of how races viewed America.

Blacks overwhelmingly approved of the not guilty verdict. Many of them literally publicly celebrated.

Whites overwhelmingly disapproved of the not guilty verdict.
