I dearly hope they do not allow that murderer to make money from his crimes anymore.

I was very young while the O.J. Simpson trial was going on. However, the echoes of the past are still heard today. If everyone knew he was innocent and felt that he had been wrongly accused then they would take pity on the fact that he lost his wife and would gladly let him tell the tale and explain how the media demonized him and caused many a sleepless night. However! It is to my understanding that most people do NOT feel this way at all, and on the contrary people believe very strongly that he did commit the crime and should have been writing a book from prison. Regardless, I think the book should have been banned. If Dahmer were still alive would it be acceptable for him to author a book called "I Only Did It Cuz It Tasted Mmm Mmm Good?"

Well...a lot of people did not want to be reminded that people can get away with bloody murder...and do not mind strutting around about it! Anyway, I do not expect 70,000 copies of the book to go to the pulp recycle or the "dollar stores". They will sit on them awhile until things cool down and a few may surface on Ebay as a test.
Did anybody REALLY expect cleaned bloody but expensive gloves to fit well over rubber gloves? 'Cmon now, you didn't expect then to be snug? or too tight? And even those expensive rare shoes that got lost or still recealed blod after cleaning. And who drives around in a Bronco with a shovel and a big piece of plastic as if to haul away a body? And they interrupted my basketball palayoff game to follow a Bronco persued by police cars in a long line?

Well, I think it is a travesty. They allow people to burn flags, to fly a Mexican flag above the Stars and Stripes, and a host of other things that I consider un-American - all supposedly does as an act of free speech. Then they take a man who was found not guilty by a court of his peers (regardless of my opinion that he is guilty) and they squelch his words. Sounds like a double standard to me. No, I do not like O.J. Simpson, but he was found not guilty. I would not have bought his book, but there are some people that probably would have. I just think that he shold be allowed to speak out - then we can throw up.

I don't think anyone who committed a double murder should be able to profit like he is doing, but the jury's failure to convict him means he is a free man and can do as he pleases.

depends ... if book advocates violence, court can and should ban it.
Even if it doesn't, publishers have a right to reject a book if they feel it will not sell, or hurt sales of other books.
