(22,903 posts)15. The simpson trial jururs were held hostage to an abusive system. They voted to go home.
The judge owns this acquittal for not insisting on a time limit for the defence. They abused the jurors into calling it. The public circus made it into a defence of all black people against the system. For centuries black people were at the mercy of a white system. The jurors were burdened with all of that and their families expected them to acquit. They had been the target of public protests for so long, it was the only way they could return to their loved ones.
That trial was a travesty.

He sounds like an addict. Such a bullshitter. A teenage kid trying to explain his missing homework.
