Topic : 07/02 The O.J. Book Battle

How would anyone ever truely know if this guy really killed his wife and her friend?  I have alot of mixed feelings on it< For starters, with all due respect it does sounds like nicole suffered from loss of self knowing, and she had missed the important steps of learning and growing wthin herself and peers,,

from marrying a much older man,Its almost like you skip thse important years of gathering what one needs to carry further on to each step that is ascending before you and to fit in and make life ok you just change your skin and without knowing it you have become 20 years older than you are over nite!

<Like any human being, the point of reliseation is always is truthful and hurtful.Its one that wakes you up grabs you by the collar and smacks you in the face and all of a sudden you panic cause you havent go the skills to deal with it, you instantly go back to that place of innoence and nievety and start again,except we all deal wth it differently!  I think it was a huge rollar coaster for the two of these people and those poor kids, O J seems Like an ordinary person that just tried to do all the best by them all and like anyone it just wore him down and got to that wearing point. sometimes there is just a point that someone who wont except help, and you dont now what to do for them anymore,is just unbearable to be around.He watched his wife go through so many differnt personalities and being wth other men.It doesnt mean he did it!

Im not saying that murder is right,(its aweful) im simply saying who are we to judge and insert our lifes opinions on someones character and family situation.

There is alot of ingredients to this sad story

I had hit enter by accident before I finished my message.

I left off saying that doing evil for evil is wrong.  If OJ did the crime believe you me he will suffer for it, but the Goldman's method is foolish to me.  I don't see how them gaining OJ's money or possessions will bring Ron back.  Ron is deceased and I believe he would want his family to live and go on with their life.  They can not bring Ron back no matter what they do to OJ.  Enough is Enogh.  It makes me wonder are they capitalizing from Ron's death by trying to gain more money by any means possible?  If OJ had no worth, what would the Goldman's have done?  There has to be an end or they will continue to live in the past.  The downfall for me was that the show ended with Dr. Phil offering no therapy for healing to take place for the Goldmans.  I expected Dr. Phil to offer counseling, provoke them to move on with their lives and to let go this hunt to get revenge, but Dr. Phil openly said he supports what the Goldmans are doing and I find this a big disappointment.    

I find it sad that you find the murder of 2 of God's creatures, who had full lives and people who loved them- hilarious.  Okay, so maybe it isn't the murder you find funny.  Maybe it is those of us who are upset that they were killed that so tickles you. 

I don't find the murder of Emmett Till funny.  I don't think that the injustice done in his case was amusing.  Why do you feel such joy in the fact that a black murderer is roaming free in the world.  How can you not care that 2 babies have grown up without their mother? 

I am not trying to be smug.  I really don't understand.  I get it that there has been an unequal justice system.  But when you high 5 each other because a black murderer is acquitted then you are not changing the course of racial injustice.  You are only continuing it.

The "hillarious" refers to the longevity of the anger possessed by people towards OJ. Don't try to confuse the issue by implying that someone is being disrespectful to another person's sensitivities with regard to life.  The fact that people lost their lives in this horrific manner will leave a sour taste in anyone's mouth. 

The point however is that while this country's legal system prides itself on innocent till proven guilty and once acquitted of the crime, the individual is innocent (when judged by a jury of their peers) we are still judging OJ and taking away his liberties as a citizen of this country.  What white man has had to undergo this same scrutiny and torture for the murder and brutality they've inflicted upon countless black women and girls (with all the evidence naming them as the perpetrator(s) and still gets acquitted)? You are absolutely right... this is not funny.  It never has been a laughing matter when families lose loved ones.  It amazes me though that all of you are up in arms about this ONE situation.  Where are you at when persons of color are murdered by police or raped and held captive in a West Va home?  I am sure the name Megan Williams will not mean a thing to you in 3 months if it even means anything now. I am willing to bet money that you would NEVER raise this type of stink if those perpetrators are acquitted. 

Hillarious  

No one is high fiving as you put it.  Rather we are shaking our heads in disbeleif as this system of unfairness is allowed to continue and further reach back into the past with cases like the Jena 6.

Hillarious

So then why are people still pointing at an innocent man? Why then is the anger so profound towards a man who's legal team was able to provide a sound defense that protected his innocense? Why is it ok to treat him like a criminal when a jury of his peers found him innocent? Why is it ok?

Hillarious

What I can't figure out is why no one put very much stock into the fact that Nicole's dog did not react to the murders.  Her dog would have attacked the killer.  In most cases, a dog will not attack his owner.  They are loyal to a fault.  If my husband tried to hurt me, in any way, my dogs (two golden retrievers) would be so confused as to who to protect, since both of us are their masters.  They would, more than likely, just be so upset that they would wander off, as Nicole's dog did.  Who knows, perhaps the dog tried to follow OJ when he left.  I, so think, he is guilty!!!  The man is just a poor specimen of a human being.  He makes me sick just to look at him or hear his name mentioned.  And the book....is just another one of his 'sick' ideas to hurt Nicole's and Ron's famiy.  I will not read it.  I'm anxiously awaiting when he will get his!  I'm a true believer in 'what goes around, comes around'....I hope it's soon.
