re: Did the black community actually think OJ was innocent

What I just can't seem to figure is why is it that the "black" ( or other) community don't just do the right thing, be upstanding, honest citizens and therefore not put themselves in this position of alleged dis-apprpropriate treatment? Why aspire to alwayes be the victim.

I think the majority of blacks do.

I wish people would realize that the lower social economic class of blacks (not all) are what is represented in the media in times like this.

Of course these are often the most out spoken and "offended"

Pretty sure we all know plenty of fine, upstanding, educated, law-abiding citizens ... who happen to be black.


When I see and listen to these race-hustling, no accountability idiots on NBC's MTP this AM ... it angers and saddens me greatly.


"Poor, young kid ... just minding his own business ... never done a thing wrong ... and this WHITE police officer just guns him down for no reason whatsover ... and IT HAPPENS EVERY DAY ALL OVER AMERICA!" (Note: not one photo of the full grown "kid" was shown ... because everyone knows he is a Goliath.)



Playing the race card is one thing ... the race card plus victim card combo to use one incident to describe an enormous problem on many fronts ... too much.

I want to revisit this topic.

I think you said it a little better than I. That was my ultimate point. I define integrity as doing the right thing just because its the right thing to do.

My further sentiment is that it was ok for OJ to murder two people because there were slaves 150 years ago. What sense does that make?

And I wasn't talking about the verdict, I was talking about the reality that OJ killed two people. Maybe the case was poorly managed by the police, but that doesn't change the fact that he was guilty. Yes slavery was an atrocity, but that doesn't give black people the right to murder at will.

Whats more, is that had he been found guily, there would have been riots in the streets of LA.
