If O.J.Simpson was white, and was accused of killing his African American wife....?

Question

you think it would still have made a big noise? NO WAY, accept it, we are still PREJUDICE against African Americans, so since we don`t like a Black guy, let`s not give him a chance to say what he wants to say, After all, Murdoch, and all other Broadcast giants are WHITES, REMEMBER........

I get you all, I see where you are coming from. But remeber, now. It was Jury of his fellow countrymen that said he was " Innocent", and if that verdict was wrong, as to be claimed, then how do we know other verdicts were right in this country.
After all, Timothy Mcveigh, was a killer too, had killed more than 2 people, but was given a chance to have an interview before he died.Why?? tell me..maybe because he didn`t have enoygh money to feed all the GOLDMAN`s...

Answer 1

Here is the skinny....we all watched the trial and had the same info as the jury. He was guilty, but they jury let other factors distort their judgement.

In spite of what you think, this was not about a black man killing his white wife...this was about our court system, how peers are chosen and how money buys freedom. OJ got jurors that were sympathetic to his cause (many poor blacks that thought highly of him) and he was freed. The rest of us saw little reasonable doubt.

TO the poor black accused of the same, he would get less representation and would likely have beeen convicted...deservedly in the same circumstances.

To the rich white who can pay for the best defense, he would likely have been convicted since his peers would not have been a jury of poor blacks who respected him.

The other issue is the perception that OJ is a hero because he beat the system. The system is evil and OJ is guilty, but he beat the system and that is more important than his guilt or innocent. Yeah, OJ beat the man...and the man is whining about losing...COME ON PEOPLE, YOU HAVE A MURDERER RUNNING AROUND...what does it take for you to understand that...another murder?

This whole book and TV thing about "What OJ would have done if he HAD killed his wife " is just more proof of this guilt and his thumbing his nose at the system. Who would mourn the mother of children with an interview of how he would have done it? ABsurd. He is guilty as sin, and will likely admit it before he dies and rots n hell.

Answer 2

This has nothing to do with race..it's because he's a former football star and celebrity...do you not remember him being on the run in that famous white Bronco for hours? He made himself appear guilty right from the start by doing that! He totally got away with murder and the fact that he wants to make money by coming forward and confessing his guilt now just sickens me. I agree, if OJ were white he probably would be on deathrow right now...I'm sorry, but I'm so sick of black people accusing white people of being racist over ever little thing, when in fact if the tables were turned ..omg it would be an outrage!! I think the Miss BLACK American Pageant supports that comment....Could you even IMAGINE if there was a WHITE America Pageant...Holy Sh*it, we'd be a bunch of racists...

Answer 3

I don't think that race matters- the guy killed his wife and her new love interest in a jealous rage. The important factors should be that he was a domestic abuser, he almost went into debt to 'prove' himself innocent then the stupid idiot comes out with a book saying IF I DID IT with the I DID IT in red. Come on this should piss anyone off who knows the facts about the trial. His lawyers knew that by approving of the trial being televised that they could make a mockery of the system. I mean really don't you think he should have be made to try on the bloody gloves- not a brand new pair SIMILAR to them. Gloves come in different sizes and tags can be switched however the bloody gloves could not have been switched and would have fit OJ proving that he was guilty.

Answer 4

The white guy would be in jail, and the Jury in OJ's case was a majority of African Americans, wasn't it?

Answer 5

I don't think thats the case here- I think its a case of Beast killed the beauty- Beast is a celeb- and has more money that morals, brains or intelligence- but enough smarts to pay for other peoples- the predjudice was money- which at this point should not be in his pocket- but the goldman's- or did you forget him too?

Answer 6

i discover it ironic which you would be able to no longer criticize Islam in any way without various non-islamic individuals leaping to that's protection...IT HAS each and every thing TO DO WITH ISLAM. i'm no christian, even with the undeniable fact that it sort of feels each time somebody asks a question like yours you pay attention an entire refrain singing negativity approximately christianity.. Face it adult men, the Mid jap version of Islam is punctiliously incompatible with Western values and custom. Yeah, they do no longer seem to be christians... they're WORSE.

Answer 7

Excuse me, but shouldn't you be speaking for yourself and not grouping everyone into that profile you are painting? Remember that for every finger you point out away from yourself there are three pointing back to you and that saying still stands true today. and so , what is it that you want us all to see in your hidden agenda????????????

Answer 8

your an idiot. He killed his wife, i for one would of liked to hear what he said but the reason he is now not going to is nothing to do with being black or white.

Answer 9

Are you kidding me? He still has two kids with this lady, remember? Do you think it's in their best interest to hear him say "if I killed her, blah blah blah" this has nothing to do with race you friggin moron. It's common decency.

Answer 10

The white guy would have been convicted because he wouldn't have had a minorities sympathy...the victim would.
