Comment: This is one of the rare moments, where blue moons, total eclipses, and helixes, combine to conjur up a drive-by!! Yeah I said it.

Name: MelodyCool
Comment: Let's see how long he remains out of trouble this time. The cops have been to his home several times and it appears his white women (waitress) is a dope fiend with a rap sheet. Everybody is laughing over the book she was reading on the flight..."You've Been Warned"!!!!!

Name: Debonair
Comment: Here's your opportunity to take it back to those old Avis commercials, as you attempt to dodge reporters, photographers, lawyers, judges, policemen, security, the Goldmans, Mark Furman, and all the plain haters while you jump over sh!t trying to make it through the airport to get to whereever the hell MiJac is. I hope i don't have all that sort of drama when i'm 60 years old.

Name: khufu
Comment: Well, seems to me that the charges are trumped up. If this could happen to OJ, it could happen to you or your son. CLEARLY OJ is a victim of YT's wrath. Yall dont have a problem with that knowing that......if it happens to OJ it could happen to you or your children? Isnt this really the same thing that they are marching about in Jenna?....injustice

Name: nightshift
Comment: Black or white, OJ deserves to be in jail. and if they're on him more so because of the murder, so be it. Khufu, it IS happening to our children!! Equating this A$$hole to those kids in Jena is a disservice to them. Being "notoriously" famous he should try to stay under the radar as much as he can.

Name: mayday
Comment: Khufu...MoKelly has a good article on the weekly columns in reference to the Jena6 that OJ should read. It is about personal responsibility AND the fact that AA KNOW or should KNOW that the justice system is not fair to us and that we should at all cost try to avoid it. Sometimes there are circumstances in life where people get thrown in the system by mishaps (wrong place wrong time, mistaken identity) but beyond those special circumstances we should avoid the system. I am not saying bow down to YT, I am just saying that a person like OJ who has beaten or rightfully aquitted of double murder charges should have stayed away from illegal activities at all cost but NO....he has had domestic violence calls to his house and now he is an alleged 60 year old gangster pulling heist in a Las Vegas hotel....silly man.

Name: VeeCee
Comment: OJ should have done what Mijac did and just left the country after his acquittal and custody of his 2 youngest kids. Mijac had the right idea - to go somewhere in hiding just to get the haters off your back. But there is one sure way for OJ and that damn Fred Goldman to get some $$$ - just go into the boxing ring and duke it out. I might even pay to see that ("snicker").

Name: cookyd
Comment: Maybe now this fool will keep his black behind at home. Or at least until its time for his trial.

Name: Angel
Comment: Khufu - You are right, but OJ is a classic case of arrogance and stupidity run amok. OJ is the LAST person that should be involved in criminal activity because he can't get a fair trial anywhere in this country after his murder trial. I will never understand why he would take part in this debacle. He could've hired a PI to handle this. But Noooo!!! Well now he's got a gang of co-conspirators and witnesses singing like canaries. It's just baffling that someone could be that stupid.

Name: TGen
Comment: If the prosecuters are smart (which they aren't as evidenced by the fact that they already gave the MASTERMIND of this whole mess immunity, lol), they'll drop this case like a bad potato. Else, like I saw someone mention on the news yesterday, they will get embarrassed like Marcia Clark and Chris Darden of old...and this case is even weaker than the murder case! There should be no lawyer anywhere who can't win a case in which witnesses are giving national interviews and selling their damn stories to tabloids, and in which there is like no distinction in the "victims" and the "robbers," lol AND in which one of the "victims" actually asked the case to get dropped! I mean really. Sure they'll have to get past the "OJ infamy" thing, but this case is weak enough that ANY defense lawyer worth his (her) salt could try this with their eyes closed, lol

Name: MsKim20019
Comment: khufu- PLEASE STOP!!! How dare you compare this latest OJ mess with the injustice going on in Jena, La. In what way has OJ been treated unfairly???

Name: gingerg
Comment: Everybody is getting what they want (Goldman, money) and (OJ, attention).

Name: Angel
Comment: TGen - Depends on how you look at this. This case probably wouldn't have been a blip on the screen without OJ being involved. He IS the target. Putting OJ behind bars would be a major coup for any prosecuter. All day, every day. They will give immunity to EVERYBODY in order to secure his conviction. Riccio, or the mastermind as you call him, "claims" that he did not know OJ was going to show up gangsta style with guns. Riccio also claims he has documentation going back to '04 to back up his dealings with the 2 "victims" and his involvement was to get them arrested, not OJ. He also says he called the police and FBI in LA and TX about these stolen items prior to calling OJ. If he is correct (which I'm not saying he is), OJ decided to take matters to the next level on his own because he did not want police involvement (with police involved he knew the matter would end up public record and the Goldmans would get the ish anyway). OJ has no one to blame, but himself.

Comment: Totally Unrelated: Re: the Bynum case. I just looked on NYT website, and it's front page news for some reason, it talks about Bynum's credibility issues since her beatdown. Check it out if you wish: http://www.nytimes.com/2007/09/20/us/20preacher.html?_ r=1&hp=&adxnnl=1&oref=slogin&adxnnlx=1190296146-YiUsO3 Kr3w3iv/iOQIGOqQ

Name: BigSexy
Comment: They are sticking it to him for not going to jail for Nicole and Ron. OJ should have used better judgement but we know he is not capable of that. But I do agree with Khufu, they will and have done this to every Black person in america. OJ has been treated unfairly. He can't even eat out.

Name: mat212
Comment: Khufu, Just...don't...don't...you're too gifted with wonderful insight and (dare I say it) UNLIMITED COMPASSION! In America people are taught to view THE WORLD through situation ethics i.e.: "It just depends." So the concept of PRINCIPLE is gone. Principles are a little too inconvenient. Sometimes they don't work in your favor. You work to theirs. Black people are an abused child. And when you've been abused....You will ALWAYS be at fault. And by "you" I mean ALL BLACK PEOPLE. Someone will always say..."you shouldn't have been...." NO MATTER WHAT THE SITUATION IS. DEATH, RAPE, DRUGS, OR LOVE. NO MATTER WHAT SIDE THE BLACK PERSON IS ON!! Whether you're the murderer or the murdered. "You shouldn't been...." For the last time!!! We are Public Enemy Number 1. Suited or saggin'. A threat! A THREAT!!!!! More threatening than terrorists! Than war itself!! We are Cayenne Pepper to ANY situation. Victim or villan.

Comment: Good article TGEN.

Name: arkansasgirl
Comment: This story is non-stop on the major new channels. This white folks really want OJ.

Name: bigskinny
Comment: a case with no bloodshed, MY stolen items, no actual physical violence, 1 broken phone(which stopped EVERYBODY from calling the police LOL), an apologetic VICTIM, a shady witness/ accomplice, a gun (biggest mistake) and THINGS not people being taken from a hotel room equals KIDNAPPING? ARMED ROBBERY? R U serious? but none of u see injustice, all u see is the arrogant, rich, white woman datin, defiant %*$!(@! the MEDIA spent ten years convincing you got away with murder. Since ur convinced he got away with murder u feel he shuld shut up and bow down and lay low. Screw the injustice!! What if it were u WRONGLY accused of murder, even though u were acquitted would YOU walk around with your head down and lay low like a GUILTY man that got away with murder should, or would u try to live your life as an innocent person should? you bastards probably would walk the other way when u see the police coming here in Chicago because u feel guilty of being poor, black or underclass. yall are so brainwashed and inactive it makes me sad

Name: LazySusan
Comment: I agree with Khufu too. I guess what really bothers me is the timing of this whole thing. It's just a little too convenient for me that this 'taped' robbery and the book coming out, that will now make Fred Goldman a millionaire, happened at the same time. I don't care who OJ dates(it's not like he was ever Denzel). From day one after his acquittal, White folks have kept up a lot of nonsense. They'll say that it was an 'all Black jury', which it was not. There were, I believe, at least 2 Whites on it. Then there was that civil suit. The suit where they didn't have anymore evidence than they did in the criminal one. What they had was a different jurisdiction and a White jury. Then 12 years of whining about how he got away with murder. How he's the most hated man in America....yadda....yadda....yadda. So much crying that after awhile I wished like h-e-hockey sticks that the man had went to jail, just to stop all of that crying! Nothing about how the prosecution didn't do their job. If anything they LET him get away with their half azzed evidence. At the same time, I can understand the contempt for OJ on this board. Because the way I see it, he is in the trouble he is in right now, all because he, once again, trusted the very people that loathe him. If he gets a next time, maybe he'll finally learn.

Name: Angel
Comment: bigskinny - So an innocent person should sign autographs at horror conventions and write a book entitled "If I did it"?! OJ took it to the other extreme. If he would've moved on with his life and answered "No Comment" when approached by reporters, maybe he wouldn't be in the pickle he's in right now.

Name: bigskinny
Comment: Angel tell me u READ ANY part of the book, that ur repeating he shuldnt hav written( yes I said repeating, repeating the same media that for 10 years told u this man got away with murder). is th book an admission? a fictional account of his perception of what happened or a collection of interviews with people close to the case? U HAV NO IDEA, but ur REPEATING. And hell yes after double jeopardy and a national effort to make sure I didn't eat or feed my family( after I was found not guilty) I would write a book too. Damn near EVERYBODY writes a book after an ordeal such as this. When injustice like this takes place some people see past FOX and CNBC, and some people repeat and retreat

Name: dcdouglass01
Comment: khufu, it's exactly like what's going on in Jena: unequal treatment under the law. White people of all intellects--from professionals to trailor park dwellers--actually stated with straight faces that OJ shouldn't be granted bail. Why on earth should someone accused of a two-bit room break-in be denied bail? And don't say flight risk, because in what country could OJ pimp about unrecognized? Their hope now is that he'll be found guilty and forced to serve his sentences consecutively, thus assuring death in prison.

Name: khufu
Comment: MAYDAY agreed however the young brothers in JENNA didnt do anything did they? The unjust justice system came after them......for black folks, getting a damn traffic ticket could be life imprisonment......

Name: khufu
Comment: I am not comparing OJ to the young brothers..I am stating the unfairness of the American judicial system in both cases.....

Name: Angel
Comment: Bigskinny - First, OJ has an NFL pension that cannot be touched by anyone, so he ain't starving. Second, his own family has stated that the book was a fictional account of the murders (his daughter discussed during the bankruptcy case for the company they created for that book)-- so out of all of the topics he could've written about he chose that?!? Third, it's not double jeopardy. It was 2 different courts, 2 different standards. EVERYBODY has the right to file a civil complaint, not just OJ haters. and Fourth, if the mother of your children was brutally murdered, are you telling me you would sign autographs at a Horror Convention?! Has OJ been treated unfairly--sure. Did he help to bring more attention to himself-absolutely. Just admit that OJ ain't a saint in all of this.

Name: mat212
Comment: khufu?....Victim OR villain. Cayenne Pepper. Okay?

Name: khufu
Comment: WHite folks will talk about the fairness of the judicial process in JEnna but say fook the judicial process that initially found OJ NOT GUILTY......

Name: bigskinny
Comment: dcdouglass- thank u, and as long as we remain quiet in silent support about this type of injustice it just makes it easier and easier for it to happen to YOU. I BESS BE QUIET FO I MAKE MASSA MAD AT ME, DEN I'S HAFTA WALK ROUND WIT MY HEAD DOWN AND BEEZ A GUD.......

Name: khufu
Comment: LOL what illegal activities was OJ engaged in exactly? He went to get what belonged to him....they say it was a gun but there is no evidence on audio or video tape of a gun....and if there was, it was said OJ didnt have the gun.....the supposed crime scene was "set up" by a white boy with a criminal history......and all these charges against OJ and not against the others?

Name: khufu
Comment: and kidnapping? LOL come on.....

Name: khufu
Comment: now, if those were OJ's possessions, should the guys have been charged with possession of stole property?

Name: khufu
Comment: stolen

Name: khufu
Comment: and why is MArk Furmann commenting...and KAelin? WHere the fook is LArry Craigs azz.....are the cameras rolling on him...I aint forget is faggot REpublican azz

Name: khufu
Comment: Angel..what criminal activity was OJ involved in?

Name: Angel
Comment: Khufu - Larry Craig sent OJ a thank you card. LOL

Name: khufu
Comment: OJ was already tried for killing his wife.....I expect yt's to try him AGAIN but for Black folks to do it...that's insane considering the history of judicial injustice towards Black folks in this country........have your forgotten Emmet Till?

Name: khufu
Comment: How come YT's especially in Media aint talking about the charges that should be filed against George Bush and his folks?

Name: Angel
Comment: Khufu - At this point, it is all alleged. However, if he did show up acting like the police with guns that the police say they found in a search of a co-conspirators room (which, BTW, he doesn't actually have to hold during the robbery to be charged for armed robbery) telling folks they couldn't leave the room (kidnapping) and taking articles that weren't his (he supposedly took some Joe Montana memorobilia and some cell phones), that would be illegal activity. Now granted, as I stated earlier, if OJ would not have been involved, this would have not even been a blip on the screen and the folks involved would've probably received minor charges, if any. OJ is being given the special treatment solely based on the murder trial--no doubt.

Name: khufu
Comment: ANGEL see what youre doing? You are rationalizing his guilt. Damn, when a Black person JUST BELIEVES another BLACK PERSON is guilty, it's a sad day....

Name: khufu
Comment: ANGEL IF..IF..you believe what YT and Media tells you huh?

Name: khufu
Comment: ANGEL..there is no proof of guns thus far...not on audio tape and there is no video tape...hersay.....

Name: khufu
Comment: ANGEL y arent the other "conspirators" being charged like OJ?

Name: khufu
Comment: heresay...ANGEL white poeple said: Columbus discoveree America..YT said Africans were animals....YT says George Bush is right.......

Name: khufu
Comment: ANGEL the initial report said SOMEONE else other than OJ possessed the firearm...

Name: khufu
Comment: Free OJ's stupid azz... "what you do unto the least of them...."

Name: Angel
Comment: khufu - The victims and co-conspirators said there were guns and guns were recovered in a co-conspirators room....but ok...I guess courts no longer accept eyewitness testimony. And it was one of the co-conspirators (black guy (alexander)) who was on tv saying that OJ went in commando style. I'm not rationalizing anything. I'm only stating how I think this is gonna go down and what OJ possibly could've done to avoid it.

Name: Angel
Comment: Khufu - If you take part in a robbery, it does not matter if you are not the one holding the gun, UNLESS when the gun comes out, you take it upon yourself to stop the robbery from taking place. That is why when someone is killed during a robbery, ALL participants are charged with Felony Murder. Not just the one who killed the person.

Name: mat212
Comment: Khufu....That's what I've been telling you. Victim or villain.... we WILL BE FOUND IN THE WRONG.

Name: musbdherbs
Comment: Angel, we must be watching two different accounts. I've followed the story on O'Reilly and the facts are not as cut and dry as you suggest here. There are questions about the tape, a victim in the room who questions the allegations against OJ, the criminal history of the accusers, the, Riccio's role, etc. But yes, none of this would've happened if OJ hadn't just sat his butt down somewhere. Also, we can "think" all day long that OJ committed murder. But, to even "insinuate" that OJ should be jailed because of something we "think" he did is beyond my human belief. This is where people, in their quest for justice, go all wrong. We should not support people being jailed as payback for crimes in an unrelated case where there is sufficient evidence to suggest that the (in this case) murder didn't happen. I certainly wouldn't want MiJac being arrested on..let's say drug charges..and imprisoned for years because of his molestation case. MAYDAY>>I'ma have to read O'Kelly's column and see what he's talking about b4 I cast dispersions on him and his p.o.v. Is it an article on OJ and when was it?

Name: Angel
Comment: Musb - I'm not saying it's cut and dry at all. I'm only stating what is alleged. There hasn't been a trial, yet. At the end of the day, we all know that if this incident didn't include OJ, there would probably be no charges at all. They are definitely going buckwild because OJ is involved.

Name: bigskinny
Comment: Angel-1) I kno legally it wasn't dubl jeopardy but if u truly think the civil trial was ne thing less than an attempt to take his Life and Freedom again (hence the term Dubl Jeopardy)then u r truly naive. 2) the pension for years to come won't cover his creditors or attorney bills 3) having bad taste and no tact is not criminal, so maybe I wuldnt hav signed autographs or wrote the book but they are both an innocent mans choice and 4) a fictional account is exactly what I wuld have written, woven with threads of others testimony, my thoughts and a few strings of the discust I hav for the Goldman family, but that's "if I did it". 5th) its obvious you've never been railroaded by a biased system, because anyone who had would never keep admitting- maybe its prejudged & yes this is happening bcuz its O.J. & yes the system is unfair......... yet you follow it all up with O.J.s to blame. Wish I culd send you an instant message pinch and wake u up. We understand can detour 5 miles out of your way to go around trouble, but I also recognize that true equality means I should be able to travel the same road as NE body else with no regard to my past NOT GUILTY verdict. its a long shot but if we dont stand up for it its a NO SHOT and a retreat

Name: bigskinny
Comment: the crime has to fit the punishment, rich or poor, white or black, obnoxious or modest other wise it inequality and unjust. all I'm sayin is this circus doesn't fit this crime. IM done, I got fightin to do for us here in Chicago. Thanks for the time Ms. Angel

Name: khufu
Comment: that's part of the sad problem...ANGEL you are implying he is guilty.....but you just dont see it.......MAT yes, we find ourselves guilty dont we?

Name: khufu
Comment: LOL Im gon say it again...MUSB yep... if okay had only thought before he walked into that door, none of this would be happening...that's the same thing I been saying about Juanita Bynum..at the point that she decided to leave the interior of the hotel to go after her husband in the parking lot, was the point at which she became responsible...same logic here...when OJ decided to walk through that door, it was HIS fault...now, I think that is a logical deduction and conclusion.....I think that is effective comparative analysis

Name: khufu
Comment: respectfully ANGEL, it's thinking like youre exhibiting here that allows them to continually treat us unjustly that feeds their frenzy even more....you did in fact beyond reasonable doubt render OJ guilty....

Name: khufu
Comment: Name: Angel Comment: Khufu - If you take part in a robbery, it does not matter if you are not the one holding the gun, UNLESS when the gun comes out, you take it upon yourself to stop the robbery from taking place. That is why when someone is killed during a robbery, ALL participants are charged with Felony Murder. Not just the one who killed the person. Okay ANgel..then why arent the other folks being charged?

Name: Angel
Comment: khufu - From the second OJ was arrested, I said the co-conspirators would be singing like canaries and OJ would take the fall...that's why they aren't receiving the same charges. They want OJ--plain and simple. It's not right, which I've also said several times, but a blind man could've seen this coming. And no, I did not render OJ guilty, I'm merely speculating on how this case is going to unfold. I wasn't there. We are not testifying, but just sitting here speculating about might happen.

Name: Angel
Comment: khufu - There you go again with Juanita Bynum. Leave that woman alone. LOL

Name: Angel
Comment: Khufu - To be honest, I would LOVE to see the reaction of Nancy Grace, the Goldmans and Geraldo Rivera if OJ walks again, so I hope he does. One predict that one of their heads will explode. LOL I just hope OJ finally goes somewhere and sits down, too.

Name: khufu
Comment: he will be found Not Guilty...and if he is found guilty, watch what happens in America......I guarantee that a natural catastrophe will occur and wipe out some yts...

Name: dcdouglass01
Comment: OJ's in a good situation right now, because of all the shady characters involved and the stench of a setup. It's kinda like the white folk who want to see OJ die are the Joker and OJ is Batman. The Joker has Batman (OJ) suspended over a vat of hot magma, leaves the room as he's being lowered into it, but comes back minutes later to find that OJ has escaped again, the shredded ropes dangling in his wake. Damn you, OJ!!

Comment: Free OJ

Name: SaintAlbansGirl
Comment: I heard something that made me fall down laughing. OJ was the only one of that crew who didn't have a conviction. HILARIOUS. I think the time in jail or just the time without drugs caused him to have a different demeanor in court. "I might just actually die in jail if I don't play this one right. He didn't seem to return to his home last night and he sure isn't talking which appears to be very hard for the juice. Maybe he's turned the corner on his need for attention or his attorney let him know in no uncertain terms, "keep it up and it will be a wrap for your azz!" Will he stop, we can only hope. I have to admit I have no sympathy. During the 60's & 70's when the real men like Muhammad Ali, Bill Russell and Kareem stood tall for black folks, OJ was chilling hard with the same folks who cannot wait to lock his tail up now. If this was Bro. Ali or Russell etc I know I would feel very different.

Name: Taurusingr
Comment: It's very INTERESTING how SOME people DON'T believe in/with the legal system's outcomes simply because they DON'T AGREE with them!! You can THINK what you want, But the man was found NOT GUILTY!! That's SUPPOSE to mean....You ARE NOW INNOCENT & FREE to live your life as a FREE & INNOCENT MAN!! They KEEP messing with HIM b/c THEY ARE EXTREMELY SORE losers, RACIST & HYPOCRITES!!! Does ANYONE notice how they DON'T follow/mess with ROBERT BLAKE!!! Same damn crime, with even MORE evidents against HIM than O.J.!!! This is probably why the bail was so DAMN LOW! I mean...All of a sudden he's NOT a FLIGHT RISK??? This is just a diversion from JENA!!!! Plain & SIMPLE!!!!

Name: Dexbooty
Comment: BigSkinny - you speak the truth!

Name: Angel
Comment: Bigskinny - I agree with your position. I'm just looking at things from a different perspective. OJ totally has a right to write books, sign autographs, thumb his nose at people to his heart content and he shouldn't be treated any differently from any other citizen. In that same vein, we all have the right to leave the front doors to our homes wide open and go on vacation for 2 weeks without someone entering our property and stealing our ish. Unfortunately, we don't live in a idealistic world where people respect your rights and the courts are equal for all. My perspective is dealing with how OJ could PREVENT some of the flack he gets and also getting caught in a legal system drooling at the mouth to take him down. We all take preventive measures, even though we shouldn't have to, in order to try not to be victimized. I don't know about you, but I lock my doors and I don't venture into dark alleys by myself even though I have every right to do so. It would be different if OJ was a freedom fighter trying to change the system, but we all know that is not the case. OJ does stupid ish because he's got a few screws loose and he's arrogant, not because he's trying to challenge the system to promote change.
