104. I have a different take on it.
The reason I am still so pissed off about it is because, unlike poor blacks, OJ got off because he had the money to buy his Dream Team. I'm pissed at the injustice. I'm not pissed because he's black; I'm pissed because he had the money to get off.

If he had been a poor black man, well, his ass would have been in a sling from the very beginning. THAT pisses me off.

Knowing that a large percentage of people in jail, for much lesser crimes, are black and poor pisses me off.

I see no justice in the fact that OJ got off because he has money.
