What did he think the LA riots were about when random white, hispanic, and asian people were targeted for assault, abuse, and theft by the black community?

It wasn’t about police or injustice. It was about getting ‘revenge’ on the whole non-black world.

Well at least he’s honest in his racism.

OJ Simpson didn’t just innocuously “murder two white people”. He outright butchered them. For anyone to believe a jury nullification by an overwhelming majority of uneducated minority females was “finally, something for the black man - we finally won one”. Is the height of evil in my opinion.

The only reason today anyone who ever supported him voices some milquetoast reservation and contrition is because they value their careers and money over the racism they abetted.

Screw Cuba G.

In the interests of diversity, why wasn’t an Arab cast in the part of OJ?

Cuba Gooding’s “epiphany” and tears were designed to make warm and fuzzy feeling about him and generate ratings. Personally, I think the Goodman and Brown families never entered his thoughts until the publicist wrote the script for him.

Good for him. He’s admitting a mistake and hopefully will learn from it.

There was a vast degree of denial in just about all the aspects of the OJ Simpson trial. OJ got a LOT of sympathy, some of it possibly deserved, simply because he was a one-time sports hero, and an icon for Americans of African descent.

But merely being an icon is not enough, when the evidence becomes overwhelming in the eyes of the public, as witness the huge public relations hit that Bill Cosby has taken over recent months, as additional revelations have come out about his abuse of various females, and the means by which he “seduced” them.

There was a great deal of evidence in the Brown-Simpson murder that was either compromised, or simply “disappeared”, as nobody ever found the knife, or maybe they did, it was retrieved and disposed of before the police could take it in for evidence. I strongly suspect Robert Kardashian was involved with that “cleanup” operation. Similar deal with the blood-soaked socks.

...I couldn't stop crying because I realised (sic) I never [even considered the loss] for the Goldman or Brown family.'

Yeah, you stinking racist...you and about a zillion other racist pieces of crap that would have voted to let the murdering bastard free, no matter what, just another black man being stuck by "the man".

I am really, really, REALLY fed up with this racist crap.

And I will never apologize for being white.

And for what it's worth...I think you're lying through your teeth, Mr. Gooding...you could care less about a couple of honkies.

I'll never watch your crap.

What I find interesting about the OJ case is that it’s one of those rare examples of where karma seems to have come crashing down on everyone involved in getting OJ acquitted. Johny Cochran died of brain cancer, Robert Kardashian died of throat cancer and his daughters were turned into brain dead hos that everyone laughs at, Robert Shapiros son committed suicide, F. Lee Bailey was disbarred, Aln Dershowitz sister was run over by a truck. The only one who seems to have walked away scot free was Barry Scheck.

I still remember the videos of cheering blacks everywhere whose jubilation in the acquittal of a murderer was uncontained. It was disgusting and illustrative.

I would like to see a new poll to see if Black America is still so blinded by their racism to still think OJ didn’t do it.

A complex tale? Gimme a break.OJ got sick of paying her hundreds of thousands a year and/or was jealous of Ron Goldman.So he decapitated *her* and killed Goldman either to prevent him from intervening or out of jealousy.

Then,thanks to Johnnie Cochrane (who's now rotting in hell) he was tried by a *true* jury of his peers...those peers having a collective IQ of 55.

This article really surprised as I had always thought Gooding wasn't a bigot. I believe his former wife is white, so his kids are half white. I am shocked to find that people whom I thought were fair, are really racist in their private lives. And yes, any black who didn't care that Simpson murdered two people, is a racist. I have a Conservative friend who is black, who was surprised when I said Simpson was a murderer. She said ‘you really think he did it?’. I said ‘no one else murdered those two people’. I liken the Simpson deniers, ones who refuse to accept truth, to the Hillary! supporters who don't care that she is a pathological liar. They KNOW she couldn't tell the truth if her life depended on it, but will still vote for her since she is their Democrat candidate.

I was just so relieved that they didn't screw us over again.

So did Gooding assume OJ got screwed when he was given 30+ years for kidnapping, robbery and weapons charges?

"I was just so relieved that they didn't screw us over again.

WOW - I thought Gooding was more mature than this. But, it's a good example of what the media push to sell racism has done to America and how Obama can hold sway with so many blacks even though he's dumping on them daily.

It seems the Gooding was saying it is basically OK (with him) to do some killing of good white people in L.A. to make up for what bad white people did in Mississippi.

If only we could convert more ignorant racist leftist negros into ambitiously studious voters, blacks could get off the endangered species list they’ve jumped onto supporting leftists who promote their children’s deaths and are about to kick them to the curb for the Hispanic vote.

From reading title, I was expecting Gooding to explain how badly OJ had suffered.

Just the opposite.

Good for him. He didn’t have to admit this.
