    stabby and slicy will not be on Twitter long once people start spamming him...he'll exit.  He is a POS...
    With him saying things as dumb as "I got some gettin even to do" I seriously think he was innocent.

    No way he is that smart to pull off the double murder, no way...
    Are you serious?  I have met a few people who believed he was innocent...never took them seriously either.  It does not take brains to be a murderer...just a corrupt jury to set him free...
    Knowing Tempo, I'm guessing that was a joke.

    It is a joke.  I do not think he is a smart man though.

    i blame OJ for the kardashians. if he hadntve murdered his wife and her friend the chances are extremely high that wed never have come to know the kardashians.  that alone should keep him in jail for ever. ;):)

    take a good look
    this could be the day
    hold my hand
    lie beside me

    'reality' television makes my head hurt. its sole purpose is to dumb down the people. it is how those in power get away with the bullshit they do.

    Kim and co's father was defense counsel for OJ.  I think this was tongue in cheek.  He died of cancer or something a few years later.

    Oh wow...I'd long forgotten...I remember Cochran, but I suppose he had a lot of attorneys.

    Yup, he had an a-list of them. Guys like F. Lee Bailey, Cochran, Kardashian, and Robert Shapiro, and a few more who I can't think of. But definitely a team of heavy hitters.

    Dumb down the people? That seems pretty arrogant to me.  I don't think I get any less intelligent after watching these shows. After teaching all day and taking care of my kids I enjoy watching mindless tv that makes me smile and laugh.

    that's because it is arrogant. no different than people who slag on fans of nickelback or justin beiber while extolling the "genius" of radiohead.  you like what you like (full disclosure: I hate NB and JB and like RH, but I don't judge those that have different tastes). and lots of people need in their down time the opposite of their up time; in your case, you are intellectually engaged all day, so it makes sense you want to be mindlessly entertained in your down time.

    I have no idea how reality tv has anything to do with people in power getting away with shit. people have always needed an escape from daily life.  the fact I used to watch survivor or the apprentice has zero to do with how engaged I am as a citizen.

    Is that the purpose of the reality TV industry?  And if somehow so, intent doesn't necessarily equate to outcome.  I need the distraction sometimes. I welcome it.  I need to just turn off the heavy shit in my mind and think outside of myself for awhile.

    I may also turn to video games (the violence!) and crossword puzzles (gold star?).

    It's OK if folks want to roll their eyes at me; I'm pretty OK with myself these days.  With my intelligence too.

    I'm not really sure how the pulling-one-over-on-us power thing is related, though.
