>>> You frigging racist!

How in the hell is that remark racist? Most reasonable whites were pissed about the outcome of that trial -- I certainly was. But blacks generally weren't because of their own racism.

Because it assumes a black/white issue instead of simply a man murdering two people. OJ's girlfriend happened to be white. He happened to be black......but the issue is that he may have murdered two people out of a jealous rage. That's the crime.....not that he was black and the other two people were white. And yet you couch it in racist terms. That makes you a racist.

The racism was the black jury that, in spite of overwhelming evidence, acquitted the bum.

Had the jury been white and had still acquitted him what would you have said then......that they were nigger lovers? You weren't on the jury.....you don't know what went down. But again, even if they acquitted him because he was black and not based on the evidence, then they are racist too. There is racism on both sides.

The racism was in that blacks by a very high margin wanted him acquitted even though there was no doubt he committed the crime.

That's the only racism where OJ is concerned.

And as a white person, you wanted revenge. Yes we know....the only racists were on the jury. Thanks for making EVERYTHING clear.
