Re: Race Card Anyone

Jermyn, OJ was found guilty in a civil court were the jury was not packed with a bunch of minorities determined to show "the man" they were not going to convict a "brother".

The evidence against O.J. was overwhelming for any rational person.

"We did not wear uniforms. The lady workers dressed in the current fashions of the day, ...silks...satins...jewels or whatever they happened to possess. They were very smartly turned out, so that they made an impressive appearance on the streets where a large part of our work was conducted in the early years.

"It was not until long after, when former Holiness preachers had become part of us, that strict plainness of dress began to be taught.

"Although Entire Sanctification was preached at the beginning of the Movement, it was from a Wesleyan viewpoint, and had in it very little of the later Holiness Movement characteristics. Nothing was ever said about apparel, for everyone was so taken up with the Lord that mode of dress seemingly never occurred to any of us."

The difference? Both qb's, both jerks, one white one black...but I know I know, do NOT play the race card, I've "learned" my place....hahaha, whatever
Big Ben was NOT even tried in court for rape let alone found innocent or guilty. So he is legally innocent, yet he was still sacked for 4 games

What? So everyone should be convicted? That's seriously asinine. You are assuming Ben was guilty, not innocent

If you sack someone without permission you deserved to get sacked without your permission, IMO.

You realize that there are actually more minorities than whites in the US right?

Prove it.

Show the stats.

Show the intents of those individuals by showing a pattern-- by them personally or by minorites in general.

Back up your assertion.




You can't.

The prosecutor determined that a "crime" DID NOT take place in the case of Ben. I'm sticking with him.

Apparently, there was a lot presented that birthed reasonable doubt in the minds of those jurors.

Re: Race Card Anyone

Ok maybe Im wrong about the minority figure, but here where I live the majority percentage wise are Hispanics, next are whites, then blacks and asians.

Add Hispanics, blacks and asians and the number of whites pale in comparison.

a lot of people thought it was social justice, not legal justice.

There was no evidence racism played a part, but because of an idiot detective being found to have used the N word, facts don't mean a whole lot anymore. Emotions take over
