You couldn't be more wrong. Ever since he got off the police have refused to respond to any calls he's made. Maybe they think its funny, this is what happens. So someone stole OJ's stuff, knowing the cops would not do anything, and OJ, knowing the cops would not do anything, resorted to going after it himself. Call it justice if you want to. But the vigilante actions of the police created this as much as anything.

maybe the police are too busy responding to the calls other people are forced to make because of him?

Cool. But to bad that doesn't mean much compared to a police department that doesn't respect a judge's decision and decides to take conviction and sentencing in their own hands. Frankly, I'm more worried about the latter.

What would you do if the police ever "black listed" you?

Ah.

Based on the theory that a police who pick and choose who to defend will always choose in a way you find acceptible.

That's the classic coppitude you see every time you get jury duty: their actions are self-justifying. "Of course the guy is guilty, I arrested him didn't I?" So of course they would be equally unerring about whom to fail to protect.

how has OJ not been protected? he stormed into a hotel room with goons brandishing guns. he kept people there against their will with the threat of violence. he has a long history of being treated with kid gloves as he continued to threaten and harras people. the cops didn't exactly enforce Nicole's restraining order. but somehow OJ is the victim? he is a narcissist who beat the system and continued to beat the system. so he believed he could do whatever he wanted. he would seize memorabilia and not pay his lawsuit. he would try to publish a confession. OJ is a murderer and a thug who should be brought down like any rabid animal. his sum contribution to humanity stands at negative. protect any future victims and stop worrying that OJ may have his feelings bruised.

I'm not speaking of those events. Because I'm not trying to defend those actions.

But if, at other, earlier times, OJ had tried to call the police about something being done to him, and the police decided to not care, then that would be what I'm speaking about. Whatever else OJ did, It's frighteningly wrong for police to be behaving that way.

you are correct. OJ should be treated like every other law abiding citizen. oh yeah, he isn't one.

Unless something changed dramatically while I was sleeping Dennis, in the US you are innocent until proven guilty in a court of law, and you are judged by a jury of your peers. Which means that-

-Whether you like it or not, OJ was found not guilty in a court of law for the killings 13 years ago.

-There has been no admission or finding of guilt in OJ's current arrest, which means that...

-Like it or not, he has the Constitutional guarantee to be treated as a law-abiding citizen regardless of what you think of him.

I totally agree with Wayfriend on this.

but he was found guilty in the civil case. he has spent the time since in and out of the courts. had he not been a celebrity with $$$ he would be in prison. and while i hope the evidence holds this time, i have my doubts.

we live in a society where an actress can be found with coke in her pocket and ends up skipping on the charges. OJ is a thug and a murderer (at least in a civil sense.) and we will all be better off when he is stopped.

But, but, but, but nothing. As a pseudo-LEO, you should understand that civil court has absolutely no bearing on one's criminal status, and there's an entirely different standard for determining responsibility.

Your shocking disregard for the principles of our judicial system is galling, especially given your line of work.

Maybe because he sees it up close and personal and not from the ivory towers many of us (me anyway) look at things.
