On the 27th and 29th of this month, those of you in The New Amerika can watch on TV as the murderer O.J. Simpson describes how he killed Nicole Brown Simpson and Ron Goldman in 1994.
“O.J. Simpson: If I Did It, Here's How It Happened” – brought to you by Fox Television.
Now, if I had killed my ex-husband* and got away with it, the last thing I would do would be to describe to the world how I had actually done it. I would keep quiet, continue my charade of innocence, and not draw attention to myself in hopes that the world would eventually lose interest and leave me in peace. And even more so if I had children because I would want them to be left in peace (the poor motherless things).
But not O.J. Simpson, because he is an absolute cunt. His 2-part television interview is timed to coincide with the release of his book, If I Did It** (for which he was reportedly paid $3.5 million).
O.J. Simpson stood trial for murder and was acquitted. Practically all of the evidence had pointed to his guilt, but the jury was too star-struck or too retarded or too something to reach the correct verdict. Or maybe it was that the prosecutors had fucked up. Or the judge. Or that the investigating policeman was a racist. Who knows. Maybe Simpson’s book will also offer a theory on that. But because Simpson was tried and acquitted, he cannot be tried again for the same crime.
“…nor shall any person be subject for the same offence to be twice put in jeopardy of life or limb…” – Article V, Bill of Rights.
So Simpson is protected by the law against “double jeopardy” as he was protected by his right to trial by jury and as he is now protected by his right to freedom of speech.
You go, O.J. I hope your children hate you.
* I did not kill my ex-husband; he killed himself.

Did he really?
O.J. is a douchebag and deserves a cockpunch. Maybe we could hold a "Give OJ a Cockpunch" benefit.
Hev, I'll email you now. Also see archive of July 2005 - posts from the 15th.
I could not believe it - when I saw there was such a book and that the media bandwagon approach
would have OJ running the TV circuit - and getting hype for this! rewarding someone for a heinous act (both monetarily and visually) - because it is obvious he wants/needs the limelight and adulation -
the american press and media have allowed themselves to be manipulated into giving a murderer what he wants!!
not to bypass the american public who's idea of being well-informed is to read People Mag weekly.
I read an article in Sundays Age newspaper about OJ & his new 'venture'.
How disgusting it is that not only has he got away with this, but now is looking to make money out of this?
I feel sick
Just found this on www.bbcnews.com

Yeah, I woke up to the news this morning. Now if only a public outcry against Bush could accomplish something similar.
