The OJ Simpson interview
 

on Dateline friday.

hmmmmmmmmm, I wonder what he is going to talk about?

June 1994
 

:confused:


Do you all remember where you were/ what you were doing when 'the chase' started?

I was watching the NBA finals with my sister and her family in Tyler, Texas.

Re: June 1994
 

I was a groomsman in a wedding party in Chillicothe, Ohio, eating dinner at the bride's mama's house. I was also watching Rockets/Knicks 94 Finals.

The guys were taking bets on whether OJ was going to "off himself" in the bronco. I was just hoping it would be done by the games' 4th quarter. :o

Where was I - - -

I was in DC watching the NBA finals with my boyfriend and drinking some beer. We were totally tripping because OJ's daughter Arnelle went to Howard also, and she used to drive that dang white bronco when she was in DC.

Was living in Charlotte, N.C. and watching the NBA finals when Ohhhjjenthal :rolleyes: and his trek took over the TV.

Again, because I have a fascination with bad taste, I think I will watch this.

Still MAD!!!
 

I was at my aunt's house visiting with relatives who came in for my hs graduation. THE ENTIRE TRIP THEY WERE OBSESSED WITH OJ!!

WHAT ABOUT ME?!? I WAS READY FOR MY CLOSEUP!! THAT DARN OJ!!!

WHY ARE ALL THOSE HELICOPTERS IN THE SKY???
 

I WAS ON THE I-10 FREEWAY NEAR SEPULVEDA BLVD. EXIT WHEN O.J. LOST HIS FCUKIN' MIND ON THE FCUKIN' FREEWAY!!!

i was at work in Dallas when i heard about it. i thought he killed his only, ie. first wife. i didn't realize there was a second wife and a new set of kids. as a result, i didn't expect all of the ensuing media frenzy. in my mind, i had he had killed the first wife, it wouldn't have been AS BIG a deal...:rolleyes:

I was in middle school (8th grade) and all of my teachers were talking about it. It got to be such a huge deal that all of the 8th graders got to hear the verdict. They stopped class for an hour and let us crowd into two rooms.

Unfortunately the class was racially divided on the issue. The Minorities cheered but the Whites hissed. In our immaturity we felt like we won something that day. :(

Ohhhjjjj, you suck
 

OJ plugs reality show on wife's death anniversary
04/06/2004 - 14:46:39

OJ Simpson marked the forthcoming anniversary of his ex-wife’s killing by saying he was “angry” with her.

Simpson was found not guilty of Nicole Brown Simpson’s murder but was later deemed responsible for her death by a civil jury.

He said he was angered by her choice of friends and the way she dealt with their children.

“There are times I am angry at her. … There are things that she could [have been] doing with the kids,” he said in an interview.

The disgraced actor and former American football star also said Fred Goldman, whose son Ronald died next to Nicole, “got such opportunity from this with TV exposure”.

Simpson said he believed Michael Jackson would be found not guilty of the child abuse charges brought against him.

“I just have never seen that in him. I think Michael is just an affectionate guy toward kids,” he said.

Simpson, who used to take his children, Sydney and Justin, to Jackson’s Neverland Ranch in the 1990s, said the pop star was “asexual”.

During the interview on Fox, he also made inflammatory comments about rape, saying: “In my opinion, ‘date rape’ and ‘stranger rape’ are two different things entirely.”

“And when I was a kid growing up, just about every girl said ‘no’, once,” he said with a laugh.

“You know they had to because you’d think they were a slut or something.”

Simpson used the interview to plug a new reality TV show, which will see unsuspecting targets subjected to practical jokes.

Re: Ohhhjjjj, you suck
 

He betta PRAY that his daughters never become victims of sexual assault or rape, whether it be by a stranger or a 'friend'. I bet his whole frigging attitude would change. :mad:

Dumb BASTID!!!!!:mad: :mad:

When did he have his nose job?

Wow! He has really aged!

I never knew he talked that "proper".

He gave me that "strange guy vibe" for the first time tonight.

Ohhhjjjj's talking proper came from years of diction and elocution lessons, taken while he was actively involved in TV. But that stuff eluded him, I remember reading, during the wildness...he was heard saying po-lice and stuh like that.

Re: Still MAD!!!
 

LOL..I graduated HS in 94 too and my whole family got transfixed on it. Nothing compared to the trial though..that was all the buzz at my college..never have the racial divide been so clear

I watched the interview with Katie Couric last night and I don't like the way that OJ talks about his kids and emphasizes so much that they're in really expensive schools, are really popular, like to hang out with their friends and party, etc. It just seems like he kind of supports certain behavior. For example, I wouldn't be surprised to hear that OJ lets his kids have parties at his house and supplies the alchohol....chit like that.

I wouldn't mind having that kind of dad. :D

Re: Ohhhjjjj, you suck
 

I agrree with him. And I wager that a lot of women that have been raped at knife point, gun point, beaten unmercifally probably agree as well that there is a difference between their experience and a girl that got to drunk around her date one night and can't really remember what happened but must have been raped.

Re: Re: Ohhhjjjj, you suck
 

Shiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii:mad: :mad:

Re: Re: Ohhhjjjj, you suck
 

And you probably don't think a guy can really "rape" his wife or girlfriend...:mad:

Why is he having a reality show that's basically a Punk'd ripoff? I would be scurred to be Punk'd by OJ. I'd run like hell if I saw him coming. He just needs to go home and be a good father to his children.

Actually I like the fact that O.J has not let the whole ordeal destroy him. I must admit that after the murders in 1994 that I was rooting against O.J, but the way the media covered the story made me somewhat of an unwilling supporter of the man. In the end w/the many blunders made by the L.A police I feel the not guilty verdict was correct. I know many people will not agree w/me but I feel that a person should not be covicted of murder if there are so many mistakes made by the police dept.

You're right...I don't agree. I could give a whit about procedure in the pursuit of truth. I know procedures have been established to ensure FAIRNESS but what about TRUTH and JUSTICE?

Too many people are sitting in jail or on death row because something like DNA testing was not allowed by the judge or the defense did not investigate thoroughly. Too many criminals are still out on the street because the police and prosecutors screwed up or the judge was personally swayed.

I haven't been convinced one way or the other as to whether OJ is guilty or not....there are too many inconsistencies in each side's case. Sooooo under the 'innocent until proven guilty', he should be free. However, I feel he has been subject to a form of double jeopardy by his wrongful death liability in the civil suit. Has anyone noticed that this type of civil suit-after-criminal verdict is becoming more common?

:confused: You said you don't agree....yet your post suggest that you do agree w/ what I stated. It's hard to have a real pursuit of truth and justice when that pursuit is clouded w/ bias and mistakes.

Re: WHY ARE ALL THOSE HELICOPTERS IN THE SKY???
 

I was also in Los Angeles. It was the year I graduated from UCLA (undergrad). It was graduation weekend, literally, and it was overshadowed by the OJ-ness. I think I was in my apartment in Westwood when news broke. For those familiar with the landscape, UCLA is minutes from Brentwood. Everyone was consumed by the madness and driving by the murder scene and doing their own "how long does it take to get from old girl's spot to his Brentwood Estate?" drivebys. CRAZAY!!!!!

I saw a snippet of this interview on GMA this morning and OJ look and talk like he on "that stuff".

On what stuh? The stuh that you smoke or the stuh that you shoot up your veins or the stuh that you suck up your nostrils?
:p

I guess what I am not agreeing with is that you specifically indicated the police department. Their 'mistakes' were not in the pursuit of truth but to fit their perception of reality. If procedural errors occur (esp on the prosecution or police), trials can be thrown out, even if the person is guilty as sin; often times the cases aren't retried and guilty people are walking the streets. How many times have we seen folks who are up their elbows in stuff but were never convicted?

In the meantime, we have people on death row whose cases were tried 'by the book' and whose appeals were repeatedly denied only to find out that they were innocent the entire time.

TTT/Sydney and Justin Simpson
 

Here's a link to pictures of Ohhhjjjj's kids.

No disrespect but no matter what we feel towards Mr. Simpson we should try to leave his children out of this madness. :)

TTT/Rolling Stone magazine scribe Toure on Ohhhjjj
 

This is a quote from a blog about Ohhjjj and the case. The thought in bold is pretty much my thoughts about the whole system.

A decade after the murders, the Editor's Desk Roundtable reviewed the recent O.J. Simpson interviews. Comedian Jessi Klein said she watched to see if the interviewers will "make it through." Toure (no description or last name necessary) said "his life since the verdict has been pathetic" as if "you freed a slave and then he became a couch patoto." Tina interjected, "I thought he spent his time doing coke and girls." Attorney Ed Hayes disagreed said, "You get away with murder in America, and his kids are doing fine. That's it. That's the way it works." And Michael Daly of The Daily News said "the bigger question is what have we learned from this case." Perhaps that we can still suck it for ratings?

Toure explained black America to Tina: "I think most black people think he's guilty, but they're kind of laughing and snickering at the system. . . We don't love him, we're not happy people got murdered. . . we're not happy he got off, except we are because one of us won one time."

I'm wondering how O.J could be the epitome of evil, lose the civil suit against him yet get custody of his children? It just doesn't add up........................

Not a lawyer
 

^^
I wasn't surprised that Ohhhjjj got custody of his kids. First of all, he's their only living parent.

Second of all, I do suspect that race, despite the fact that Ohhhhjjj's a soi-disant race-neutral guy, :rolleyes: played a factor in the decision. I live part-time in the same county of California that the Brown family's in, and it's not redolent with people of African descent.

Break it down some ST
 

Steeltrap could you put that in more laymen terms.....I don't even know what the word "Redolent" means my quess is that it means not many or not populated with :D.

Re: Break it down some ST
 

Redolent actually means "strong distinctive fragrance," but I use it as a synonym for rich with or loaded with. :p
Translation: Black folks are a super-super-minority in OC. That's because the county, frankly, has a history of prejudice and was known as a white-flight area from L.A.

Yeah I had to check the dictionary on that one : strongly scented :) Okay now that the vocabulary lesson is over, back to O.J. The point that I was trying to make was that if O.J is such an evil being why did the court see fit to give him custody of his children instead of the Brown family. I realize what you are saying about the racial makeup of the county but I feel that the Simpson children would be recieved and could easily adjust to that county seeing how there are not many blacks in Brentwood. I feel that the children would have been use to that type of setting and seeing how 78% of white America believes that O.J was the killer they would have welcome the children into that county.
