I feel so sad watching Ron Goldman's sister and father on "60 Minutes".
This is a real American tragedy. They lost a brother and a son.

It was 10 years ago, and, I still have no sympathy for OJ! He had a reputation for domestic abuse. Personally, I knew one of Nicole's friends who corroborated this abuse! I KNOW he did it!

:cry:

1. I know...I know...
Unfortunatly that story got waaaaaaay tooo much press coverage. And it didn't help with race relations in this country. I agree with you on the human tragedy, but it is probably best to bury the story....

7. I heard the rumor
Apparently, it was a reality show. He planned to go around playing practical jokes on people. I doubt it will actually make it to production.

5. O.J. isn't the first or the last rich man to beat a rap
I'm even more outraged by all the innocent black men in jail.

6. Your post is so true. There are so many innocent black men in jail.
Sometimes, I wonder if there is any real justice in this country.

And, after SCOTUS selected Bu$h...well, I have my doubts.

We have an awful lot of work to do!
