Poor OJ Simpson!

OJ is an ass! He may have lost his mind but he is an icon for the sad state of race relation in the United States. I was one of the few people I know that was able to follow his trial blow by blow for a year. I was working as a Cable Technician in Jersey City New Jersey. I drove around all day glued to my radio. OJ Simpson still to this day shows how poorly races get along in the United States. We politely pretend that relations are good. We even fool ourselves to believe that we can teach other nations how to get along. Look at the OJ Simpson trial and you will see that many blacks were happy he won and many whites were appalled. Many blacks may not have even cared if he did it or not. They just in some way felt that one got over and that was a refreshing change of pace. Many Whites can't stand the fact that a black man may have escaped punishment for the possible crime of killing a white girl. OJ will be watched and hunted for the rest of his life because of that fact. OJ was tried in a court of law and acquitted. That should mean something in the United States. I must admit that the state of California blew the case but that’s the way it goes. I'm afraid to even check the statistics on how many women (or people) that were killed in the United State in that year. Almost all with out a care from the public. The only difference is the OJ case had race, money and sex. We are a sad society because we are still intoxicated with this madman. He may have killed two people so what! We have a legal system that should handle people that commit crimes. Blacks and White are so blinded with the pain of racism that we can't even see that the universe had given us all what we carve in this case. Many blacks may be happy that one black man has beaten the rap and some how that may make up a little for hundreds of years of injustice. Many whites may feel that a black man may have killed two young white people and walked. We all win! Really! If OJ was convicted he would have served maybe ten years and be free by now. People would have been somewhat satisfied and left him alone. Some people were happy that he walked but don't realize that OJ will suffer the punishment of public opinion for the rest of his life and that's the worst punishment possible. Everywhere he goes he must endure the chants of "MURDERER". Hell give me the ten years! That’s no way to live. You can shake your head in disagreement but the facts support what I'm saying. The opinion of OJ's guilt or innocence is almost entirely split along racial lines. If I'm mistaken you explain it. This guy was an asshole be for the murders and is still an asshole. Why do we care so much? That's for the family of the victims to do because we really don't care. We don't hurt and think about these victims everyday. Hell our fake interest is really an insult to the families and the people who really care. People are murdered everyday in the United States and we don't really care. You may know, live near or work with a convicted murdered who has served his time and no one cares!
