Default O.J. on ice

Posted By: Greg Ecklund

Dave,
If you're going to fly the "racial discrimination" banner at least find a place where it is justified. There are enough legitimate cases of discrimination out there that for you to waste your energies defending a murderer who had the world on a silver platter and then threw it all away is simply foolish.

You seem obsessed to a ridiculous degree with racial injustices of the past, which would lead you to retard justice in the present by presenting "Get Out of Jail Free" cards and turning every jury into a racial headcount. History does not have a rewind button or a TiVO...nobody can undo lynchings, police beatings, or unfair trials of the past that made a mockery of the word justice. Rather than worrying about what we cannot change we need to worry about what we can, and that means striving to give everyone a fair trial regardless of color and appropriately punishing the guilty.

We are, of course, not all the way to equality yet, and every day there are examples of injustice in our courtrooms whether because of color or lack of means. This is a worthy cause to champion, but by making such an obvious cold blooded killer a poster boy for your cause you do it more harm than good.
