There’re Several Questions About Simpson’s ‘Fair Trial’

October 7th, 2008

oj

When questioned during jury selection, all 12 of the non-Blacks who were eventually chosen as jurors said they would give O.J. Simpson a fair trial, but the fact that at least five of them said they believed the former football legend had gotten away with murder 13 years ago is enough to make you wonder. Read the rest here.

I can’t believe he (OJ) went along with the pick of the jury that was chosen and he seem to be content with it, when all the longest he should of known that at least 19 out of 12 of those juriors was prejudice

UMlaw only comments when the motives of Black people are in question. Don’t pay any attention to that racist. He had nothing to say when those crackers in West Virginia tortured and raped that Black woman. His sole purpose is to read comments on BET.com and downgrade anyone that is Black. Trying to hide your bigotry through the false pretences of knowledge will not work! Contrary to your belief, Black people are way too smart to fall for your devilish tricks, Uncivilized Mongrel Loving Aryan Whites, as FardXX would say. By the way, OJ should’ve known better than to put himself in this situation, but hell, they no one would allow him to live comfortably anyway. Maybe he can finally get some peace behind bars.

This was a one-sided decision finding OJ guilty. I watched the interview of the Las Vegas Jurors — they couldn’t keep a straigth face stating “OJ’s first trial didn’t play apart in their verdict.” How could you not take into consideration that OJ didn’t know of anyone having guns, and two that news companies such as Entertainment Tonight and others who paid for this setup, that the jurors throw-out the witnesses testimonies. I truly believe that the juror’s makeup — they could find not one black to serve on this juror. This is just a sick!!!!! I truly hope that the next trial will deal with all the evidences and not turn a blind ear to the facts in that case. I pray for OJ’s safety in jail.
Peace out!!!!

BET only wants to hear black folks opinions, nonsense, ignorance and otherwise. This is a biased board, which very few white people know about (or care about) anyway.



Mike Said on

Stupid Pedro,

You need to go and blog with the white folks then cause nobody here cares what your racist azz thinks either. Oh, did you hurt yourself jumping the border??



Howard Said on

Pedro is really Pete from the trailer park. Typical white trash opinions, nonsense and ignorance. His parents name are Bubba and Bubba.

First of all, before you stated that the Black community are too smart to believe OJ was innocent. Now, you don’t care what everyone is saying?? Stick to one opinion…this is just an example of your propensity of denying things.
I didn’t read the story about some random study because i am not on here everyday. My point is that there are also many other studies that completely contradict that one. You know this. A study is just that…research usually with one outcome in mind. The stats from the Justice Dept. is not a study remember…they are compiled numbers of convictions, and arrests…hard numbers. Plus, there are many, many cases that turn cold because they didn’t find the perps…so, said stats could be even worse towards young Black men if all of the crimes were ’solved.’ Why can’t you wrap your mind on the fact that the most violent crimes occur in the inner cities (usually of the relatively larger cities in the US). Black men commit most of the crimes in the aforementioned areas…so, is it too far fetched to believe the unbiased numbers given by the Justice Dept?????????????? NO, I THOUGHT NOT.
I didn’t make this topic about race…it ALWAYS goes there because of other peoples (usually ignorant) comments.

I think that amanda and umlaw are very racist and full of it. No one knows exactly what happen or if he killed his wife. Only God knows that and OJ and he will have to deal with that and answer to God for that. However, 13 years later, all white jurors in which at least 5 admitted they believe he committed the murders convicted him and he was given a ridiculous sentence only because of the murders, the time he was given was for his wife as well b/c they been wanting to do this to him. and foolish of him, he put himself in that situation. he should have called the police in which they probably wouldnt have dont anything but hey he has money so he should have said ?#%$, i aint going to get in trouble over these fools b/c thats what they wanted anyway. amanda and umlaw need to shut the ?#%$ up and stay the ?#%$ off bet. i see they have a lot to say when its a black man but what about when its a white person killing people. they wouldnt be able to say anything and then the media would try to hide it. basically this is a white man system and trap, but its all cool b/c God is in control and everything happens for a reason and the white man may think he has all the power on earth but in all reality, God has all the power and He is in control. And another thing, Oj shouldnt have got all famous and married a white woman anyway b/c she only sees him with power and money and thats what them white women are after and then they turn around and ?#%$ the man over by @?*##$$ someone else in the house or leaving them dry and taking all their money. Our black men need to wake up and realize that white women is trouble and definitely not beauty, all bull. They get rich and give it to the white women who are only using them. Another similar situation except no murders, Kimora Lee married Russell Simmons, now she has some kids by him, she is famous, her fashion line, and everything and now she wants a divorce, she got what she wanted and left the black man. Probably using him as well for his money and try to make him look bad. There is nothing better than being with a black man. I dont know why these men dont leave these white women alone. Look at what happen to OJ, perfect example, had it all now has nothing in jail. It was definitely not a fair trial, everyone in there was ready to put that man under the cell anyway.

OJ sould of left town with MJ he would been ok.



Ridiculous Said on

My comment did not get posted on yesterday!! What I said was…. why didn’t they continue to pursue the murder or murders of Nicole and Ron Goldman when OJ was found not guilty 13yrs ago? Hmmm!!!! I just make one wonder about the justice system. And what about Nicole’s friend that was found dead in a Hotel that same day? Hmmm! I think they know what actually happen but they just want to place this blame on OJ! I’m not taking up for OJ because he does strike me as an arrogant person. I’m sure the DREAM TEAM HAVE a lot to say to him about right now!!! YOU BIG DUMMY!!!!!!!



Kenzo Said on

The fact of the matter is the white man will never let it go and they knew how to get this black man… He is a fool and always will be. This was a setup from the get-go and you only have to look at the coincidences. He’s in Vegas for a wedding and the cats who got his memorabilia are in some hotel room and this other dude so happens to know where and he records the whole thing… Come on now. We all know he was set up because they knew exactly what he would do. That should be a lesson for all black people… In this country black men don’t get away with crime but white people do it all the time….

I love how many on here so easily accuse others of racism. I think that is a big mistake since there are as many racist Blacks as any other race. Blacks are not the only victims of racism…especially in the crime ridden 21st century. Black on White crime is more prevalent than the opposite. Of course racial crime towards any race is horrendous.
Uncivilized mongrel?? If by uncivilized you mean highly educated entertainment attorney, then i guess i can agree with you. I am not racist…that is fact. I dislike criminals, and ignorant people. If these two qualities describe a WHOLE race, then i could be deemed a racist. READ my comments…they are usually targeted at criminals, or biased individuals…not a whole race.
I was going to comment on the story about the WV Black woman, but there were many posts that would have mirrored mine.
There are too many double standards within the Black community. There is so much hate written on here by African Americans, but it is hidden in as a response to racism. The term ‘redneck’ spoken with hate is just as bad as any other racial term…it’s all about the intention behind any word. If a Black comedian makes fun of any other race, it’s funny…but if a white comedian makes Black jokes, he/she’s a racist…COME ON.
SESCHRIS: I didn’t respond to the random study, because there are tens of other studies that say the exact opposite thing. I don’t trust studies, i trust numbers. The stats compiled by the Dept. of Justice are just that…a compilation. There is no subjectivity in it. The numbers on crime and young Black men are crazy…that’s why there is so much hatred between the police and Blacks…it’s because their lives are on the line constantly, and they have to use the odds to survive. They are more likely to be killed by a Black person, than a white/asian/indian person…that is just fact. So, they might use some racial profiling…so what??
You first said that Blacks are too smart to believe OJ is innocent…after you realized that is not true, you said you don’t care what anyone says. This is just an example of how you use denial. You now realize that many Black people actually believe OJ is innocent…pretty ridiculous, but it’s true.

African Queen:
You’re being a racist by stereotyping white women…see, you’re a racist. You’re doing worse than anything i do because you’re blanketing all White women…51% of all white people. You use a couple of examples, but do you seriously not think that there aren’t Black women that do exactly what you accuse White women of??? Come on! While you’re calling me a racist (you cannot justify that) just because i speak negatively about some Black people, you’re acting like a racist.

GUESS WHAT Said on

This is flat out stupid and racist! This is the one where Jessie Jackson and Al should be protesting for him!! This is a mistrial and the fact that the jusry went on what they thought he did in the past should be concerns for OJ and his attorneys as basis for an appeal. If any of the jury admitted to that as being a part of their decision, they should be penalized!!

FREE OJ!!!!!!!!!!!!!



Mocha Said on

Once O.J starts his jail sentence,his fans will get over it.From what I know of the trial,he will be serving time for robbery,not murder.And with the evidence against him,his appeals will be denied.Cheer up people,he’ll be ok.
