You know what? OJ should just up and move to Mars. Clearly he won’t ever get a minute of peace here on Earth. You know how I know that? Because you OJ haters can barely contain your anger right now, and I didn’t even say anything.
I didn’t even say that, yeah, OJ might have killed Nicole Brown, but get over it. A black man may have killed a white woman. A rich black man. A rich, ig’nant black man. Say it with me, haters: A rich, ig’nant black man may have killed a white woman. But he was acquitted. Years ago. And that’s more than we can say for several murderers of random black people. That’s more than we can say for the people who lynched Emmit Till and countless other black men. But, honestly, that’s not even relevant. Or on the same level. And as far as we know, thanks to the unequivocally fair justice system of the U.S of A., OJ is a free and innocent man.
So tell me then, why I’m watching CNN morning news, and right smack in the midst of important stories, the Soledad look-alike starts talking about OJ Simpson leaving jail last night. I think he may have been there a day or so, for something inconsequential. Then they showed a picture of OJ leaving jail. Somebody please tell me why the paparazzi follows Orenthal James around. I guess for the same reason that the fact that OJ stole some of his own sports paraphernalia is front-page news. Because America loves to hate OJ.
OJ is the symbol of everything that went ‘wrong’ when the slaves were freed. Look how fast he can run! And how strong he is! And he likes white women! And lives in a mansion, bringing the property tax down! And he’s handsome! A millionaire! And back to that white woman thing—he likes to kill them! Well, so what. Spare me, haters. Can OJ live?

i ain't know you blogged. very nice. i also think it's messed up how everybody assumes oj was guilty even though he was acquitted. what's up with people thinking they know what's going on just because they know what the profit driven media chooses to tell them. i don't know.
