Still.
Wow.
Maybe I'll even bury the dead kid I have now I know it's safe.

(too soon?)
Never too soon for dark humor.

I just hate how everyone "knows" all about whether people are guilty or not. Certainly I believe there is some educated guessing going on; some people have really followed this case.

But, even with OJ, though every part of my being thought he was guilty too, I couldn't come out and shout "that guilty motherfucker deserved to DIE." I couldn't be sure he was the monster he seemed to be.

Because I just don't know. So the loudmouthing you know will result from certain factions of people, ready with pitchforks, will get on my nerves. Not to say no one is allowed to those opinions either...a lot of people know more about it than I do.

But say, just for a second, that she really wasn't (by the letter of the law and as shown by her defense) guilty? This is why we have courtrooms, right?
