Would someone please, PLEASE tell O.J. that unless he kills someone else, his 15 minutes of fame are over?

The specs belonged to Nicole’s mom, and were prescription.

Bob, That one is H. L. Mencken: Nobody ever went broke underestimating the taste of the American public. Also from same: No one in this world has ever lost money by underestimating the intelligence of the great masses of the plain people. Nor has anyone ever lost public office thereby. A professional politician is a professionally dishonourable man. In order to get anywhere near high office he has to make so many compromises and submit to so many humiliations that he becomes indistinguishable from a streetwalker. The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, all of them imaginary. The natural tendency of every government is to grow steadily worse‚Äîthat is, to grow more satisfactory to those who constitute it and less satisfactory to those who support it.

And had you read the post, dclydew, you would have seen that the family being referred to was not the Browns, but the Goldmans – whose son was not related to the OJ/Brown clan. His brutal murder fell into the “no good deed goes unpunished” category. He was a waiter returning the pair of glasses that Nicole Brown had accidentally left at the restaurant where he worked.

Just my opinion of course, but dclydew had you watched the trial you would realize that there is no ‘mystery murderer’. Sorry, but callow remark on your part re “taking out the whole clan”.

The whole thing is pathetic. I have no idea why parents are entitled to money when their adult daughter is murdered to begin with. I think the OJ story is one of those where I can’t identify with any of the participants and humbly wish that the mystery murderer would have just taken out the whole clan, OJ included. Except for Kato… he was the best part of the whole mess.

That and the White Bronco.

So, Regan wants closure. Don’t we all. How do I get closure from Regan’s outrages?

If you support free enterprise and freedom of expression, you cannot object to any of this on either of those grounds. That leave only the good-taste objection — and to paraphrase P.T. Barnum, no one ever lost money underestimating the taste of the American public. Bottom line: if you don’t want OJ to profit by this, don’t watch the TV show and don’t buy the book.
