Sorry folks, we just see things and interpret facts differently...I believe due to our experiences. I don't for a second believe that we minorities that make up 25% of the pop. commit the majority of the crimes to make up 63% of the prison population. (US Census) I don't believe the US justice system prosecutes equally.

I'm not white, republican, nor conservative, so I'll disagree with the majority of the AFF posters political views.

So I've been dismantled & called a race baiter, lol!!! I've been called a lot worse...dirty Mexican, spic, lazy Mexican, wetback, lazy _____ Mexican, many times...too many to count...ur words cannot hurt me or make me see your points of view. I know racism exists in every facet of the United States population including the church. If I had a nick for every time a Christian has said a racial joke to me thinking that I would laugh with them I would be a rich man. I just walk away sad...knowing that nothing will EVER change. Racism is SO rampat it is alarming...I recall the teacher telling my brother that he HAD to take mechanics & wood shop instead of the higher classes so he could get a job more according to his kind...causing my Dad to drive up from LA demanding to see the top dog and the result was my bro graduating from Yale, Duke, and now a prof @ U of Michigan. I can recall taking a pair of shoes into a cobbler to be told that he didn't do that kind of work...only to do it for my wife 2 hours later when she took them in. I can recall the cop pulling his gun on me for no reason. I can recall all 15 minority kids of our choir having to stay in one house while all the white kids went 2 by 2 to other homes. To me, it's always about race, I've experienced bigotry to many times not to form my opinion. Do I hate? No not ever, my Christ suffered much more than I have because of my color...you will never understand where I come from, don't even try, just don't try to make me think like you...

There are as many if not more white people committing crimes...it is just easier to get locked up if you're Black or Latino...it's just the way it is.

Got a source for more whites commit crimes??

That woman's family was ABSOLUTELY THE KEY in creating the circumstances in OJ's life where this could even happen.


So yep, I'm serious and I have facts.

So busting in with a group with guns was not the issue? Right!

BTW A civil COURT found him liable. Kinda like you saying a criminal court found him not guilty so we can't say he's a murderer. He's financially liable per a civil court of law.

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

That idiot was showed to have a propensity for actions that would constitute racism, wasn't he?

Shouldn't that invalidate whatever he has to say in a court of law? He ruined his own character, rendering his own influence to affect justice impotent-- and rightfully so!


Legally speaking, OJ is not a murderer.

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

One of the few times race got a black man off.

Liability does not mean guilt.

The whole thing with the civil case is that there was too much doubt created-- the jury could not convict him BEYOND REASONABLE DOUBT.

Everyone knows that civil courts don't have the same stringent requirements in determining guilt.

You guys are maligning our "fair and unbiased" system of justice without any proof or pattern to back up the disdain you are fomenting.


Proof?

Patterns?

None?

Done.

And what was the motivation behind his lie?

Doesn't he have a record to back up the "racist" label that was given him-- that he earned?

You claimed it big boy back it up.

He lied in court, that's what sunk the prosecution.
