The People vs. OJ Simpson - American Crime Story

[TxHoops]

New series on FX but it's a few episodes in.  Watched it from the beginning and it's actually really good.  Outstanding cast including Cuba Gooding, Jr., John Travolta, David Schwimmer, Rob Morrow, Nathan Lane, etc.  

[CRUSHCOACH]

 Yep, I've watched it from the beginning. It's a good one ! I  just wonder how accurate the personalities really are to the actual people.

[Peppermint Patty]

Takes two hours after watching an episode to calm down. How in the hell did this man get away with murder!

 

[baddog]

Always remember it is Hollywooded up. No one knows every conversation that took place......enter the script writers.

To answer the question above, Johnnie Cochran turned it into a racial trial and justice was no longer pursued.

If you have not seen the Dateline NBC special that aired on Sunday, you are missing out.

Saw it.  Was very good.

The 30for30 will be amazing.

Nah. Watched it in the 70's and thought it was a great story.

I do not recall the part where Kunta Kinte murders his wife and her friend. Must have missed that night.

These boys here LOVE to watch slave movies like "Roots" and such...It gives them a false sense of power....They WISH they could do that again. They don't want to see the TRUTH....Movies that would depict them living in caves and walking on all fours, and AFRICANS teaching them how to be civil and not EAT each other....Oh no..They would NEVER want a TRUE movie about their history to come out...Lets let them have "Roots".....Enjoy.

Dickie- Do you think O.J. committed that murder?

Fixed it for you.

Matters not what I think. A jury of his peers said no. Then they came at him in every way possible to MAKE him guilty somehow....He was DUMB for falling for the trap, however....Haggling over sports memorabilia might seem small, but, you must ask yourself, what if it were YOUR things? I don't know...I will say this....Stevenash, do you think he was THAT powerful at his age and condition to kill TWO people, have NO injuries?

I think Nicole Brown Simpson and Goldman committed suicide. 

When I am perfectly innocent, I always hold a gun to my head while be escorted by every cop in California.

Yep, always a conspiracy theory. Black men never commit crimes, they are simply setup.

As to the walking on all fours.....if we are descended from monkeys, why are there still monkeys?

They used to walk on all fours...They were CANNIBALS...had to be taught to be civil...yes....Read about it and the look up the CAUCUS MOUNTAINS, and its inhabitants...It will be a very interesting read if you have not already done so...Africans were royalty, but let you people tell it THEY were the savages...No it was quite the opposite....Look it up...They tried to hide it, but the information age has solved all of that...Let me know what you think when you do! And yes while they are scumbags in EVERY race, blacks do get profiled more than any.  No theory there. That's a fact. You folks can blame OJ for those killing all you want, but a jury has spoken on that, so the court of public opinion means diddley squat, at this point. 

[team first]

Well this explains a lot, Dickie doesn't believe in the bible. 

If I am wrong and you say you do, then you are saying Gods word is wrong 

[team first]

Or maybe God is one of them people you are always referring to? 

[baddog]

You are referring to the same court priciples that got the white kid 6 months for rape? At least be consistent.

I'll ask again. If we are descended from monkeys, why are there still monkeys? Shouldn't they have disappeared (been phased out) by evolution?

Many blacks "CLAIM" to get unjustly negatively profiled more than any other. Show me your facts!

(It's ironic that your statement negatively profiles whites, with no factual bases.)

Whoa, who told you that? God's word is wrong? WHO SAID THAT? You people lived in caves....that's factual...but you will never admit it because it will somehow overshadow your perceived dominance. Did someone tell you I didn't believe in the bible? Just curious to know....and what does that have to do with ANYTHING? SMH

Are you serious? I have no words if you think that blacks are not profiled? SMH

Walking on all fours does not mean you were descended from monkeys.....wow....

Patricia Lambert got 40 months for embezzlement.....the white teacher in Port Arthur got less than a year for raping underage boys.....EQUAL? You be the judge.....smh

Yes I'm serious. I'm guessing around 90% of the claims of "negative profiling of blacks" is unfounded". Are you really that delusional.

And I'm profiled only a daily basis as racist just for being white. Would you deny that? In fact, you've thrown out the race card multiple times today!

Nice to see you responded to this post but refuse to answer the other questions I posed to you! Don't act like you didn't see them, like your excuse from last time. I reposted them. The questions were not even in-depth hard-hitting questions. Just mimicking questions you posed to me (which I answered). Why do you refuse to answer simple questions?
