Shame On CNN..

CNN will air an expose’ on O J Simpson 20 years after the for­mer foot­ball great was found not guilty of killing his wife Nicole and her friend Ron Goldman.
The net­work has been doing it’s best to pro­mote the pro­gram using it’s own anchors to dis­cuss spe­cif­ic parts of the twen­ty year old case , inter­spers­ing at dif­fer­ent times in their inter­views the per­cent­age of black Americans who believed O J Simpson was guilty then as against the per­cent­age of blacks who now believe he is guilt as he was charged .

Personally I could­n’t care a Rat’s behind about O J Simpson, or whether he is guilty or not. What I find rather instruc­tive is that the Supreme Court struck down key parts of the Nation’s vot­ing Rights Act.
The United States Congress has not lift­ed a fin­ger to fix the law .
Every week there is a mass shoot­ing in America. They hap­pen in Schools, Churches, Movie Theatres, and oth­er pub­lic places. Additionally each day peo­ple are gunned down all across America , far exceed­ing 30’000 annually.

There is a pletho­ra of issues that CNN could occu­py its time with, but no it is of para­mount impor­tance that they bring up the fact that a duly con­sti­tut­ed jury of Simpson’s peers lis­tened to the evi­dence, includ­ing racists rants from Mark Furman and oth­er cops direct­ly involved in the inves­ti­ga­tions and decid­ed Simpson was not guilty.
Over the sum­mer American streets erupt­ed in chants of “Black lives mat­ter”.
We saw inno­cent unarmed peo­ple of col­or gunned down by Police. The inci­dents were so bla­tant many chose not to dis­cuss them as if not dis­cussing them makes them any less true.
CNN has done noth­ing to inves­ti­gate or report on the blan­ket obstruc­tion of the Obama agen­da by right-wing nuts in the Republican caucus.
There is noth­ing from CNN on the open car­ry of auto­mat­ic weapons by vig­i­lante in Ferguson Missouri.
CNN has­n’t seen fit to do an expose’ on state sanc­tioned police killings in America because it is total­ly fix­at­ed on O J Simpson’s alleged killing of two white people.

O J Simpson was nev­er a part of the Black com­mu­ni­ty, nev­er­the­less he was exon­er­at­ed by a large­ly African-American jury. Immediately after being found not guilty O J Simpson ran back to the white com­mu­ni­ty as a fish need­ing water to breathe. He could not keep out of trou­ble with the law in inci­dent after inci­dent which includ­ed his rela­tion­ship with anoth­er white woman.
O J Simpson also went ahead and authored a book titled “If I did it”. Arguably Simpson was either too stu­pid or too enam­ored with white soci­ety he thought they were just dying to wel­come him back with open arms.
After Simpson was let go I told many friends and fam­i­ly mem­bers that Simpson would receive a life or a mul­ti­ple year sen­tence for an offence as small as a traf­fic tick­et going forward.

July 2013 O.J. Simpson was grant­ed parole on some charges stem­ming from his 2008 kid­nap­ping and armed rob­bery con­vic­tions involv­ing the holdup of two sports mem­o­ra­bil­ia deal­ers at a Las Vegas hotel.

The Nevada Board of Parole Commissioners released an order approv­ing the for­mer NFL star’s parole request. But the order did­n’t mean Simpson would be leav­ing Lovelock Correctional Center any­time soon. Because he was con­vict­ed on mul­ti­ple charges, the 66-year-old still faces at least four more years in prison on sen­tences that were ordered to run con­sec­u­tive­ly. Simpson was con­vict­ed of a slew of charges against him on October 3, 2008 — the 13^th anniver­sary of the day he was acquit­ted of killing his ex-wife Nicole brown Simpson and her friend Ronald Goldman.

Just before sen­tenc­ing Simpson the tri­al Judge Jackie Glass said sev­er­al times that her sen­tence in the Las Vegas case had noth­ing to do with Simpson’s 1995 acquit­tal in the slay­ing of his ex-wife Nicole Brown Simpson and her friend Ronald Goldman. “I’m not here to try and cause any ret­ri­bu­tion or any pay­back for any­thing else,” Glass said.
The fact that she said it did not have any­thing to do with that case in which O J Simpson was acquit­ted by a jury says that it had every­thing to do with that verdict.
Not sur­pris­ing­ly Ron Goldman’s father Fred Goldman, and sis­ter Kim were con­ve­nient­ly at the tri­al and said they were delight­ed with the sentence.
Welcome to white American justice.

At a time when there are no short­age of issues which CNN could involve itself in search­ing for truth the net­work is try­ing to prove to itself and white America that they exact­ed revenge.
News flash CNN every­one knows it so gloat­ing serves no use­ful purpose.
It may be news to you but O J was nev­er a part of our com­mu­ni­ty. Go right ahead and do with him what you desire.
