I'm not saying I condone what happened to Nicole Simpson. But ...

Actually, Milo, you started this off wrong.

When you posted "I’m not saying I condone what happened to Nicole Simpson. But … " you remind me of the guy who goes to the NAACP website and posts a thread title “Now, I’m not a biggot, but…”

Or did I “whoosh” that one by you? :rolleyes:

Milossarian - What does this thread have to do with Nicole, OJ, and Ron?

So, Milo, you’re arguing the “kill 'em all, and let god sort 'em out later” point of view?

I’m with Green Bean… Are you suggesting that we try to figure out what goes on in the mind of a homicidal maniac so we can avoid pissing him off?

sigh.

I hate lag…

a lot of people aren’t grasping the irony (or topicality) in this thread…

Poor Nicole Simpson. She was brutally murdered. Therefore, she must never have committed a crime in her life, or if she did, they ought to be pardoned immediately.

And we know that OJ did it. It’s obvious. He was in Los Angeles at the time, right? I rest my case.

My first public whooshing! Wow!

Now you’re really makin’ me wanna come out Oklahoma way!

Poor Milo. :slight_smile:

samclem, not mine. They are both spineless wusses.

I suspect the oblique reference in the OP, for those still “whooshed” is for the Fuck Susan Sontag thread here.

If not this thread specifically, then for others of its ilk, expressing like sentiment in like manner.

Does any crimes she may or may not have committed justify what happened to her? Then isn’t bringing it up in the search for her killer, the administration of justice and/or prevention of that killer killing anyone else rather vulgar, out-of-place and insane?

[tepid qualifier]We need to get the people who slashed up Nicole and Ron. Murder is bad. [/tepid qualifier]

But perhaps most importantly, the Nicoles of the world need to do a lot of introspection, really examine their lives and the things that they do. The O.J.s have a lot of points, and it’s high time that the Nicoles stop and consider them.

Ah! So they’ll shoot me from behind a tree, then? It might be worth it, assuming they are also poor shots. :slight_smile:

Milo I have yet to read the Susan Sonntag thread. So if you start a thread in the pit which has all the appearances of a stupid post, HOW IS ONE SUPPOSED TO KNOW? Just because I know you as an intelligent poster?

Sometimes we get TOO CLOSE to our craft, and we take shortcuts. WE know what we are doing. But, DO OTHERS??

I didn’t. Grean Bean didn’t. Probably many others didn’t.

I’ll admit to ignorance of the thread, but at least I learned to look a little deeper before mouthing-off. :slight_smile:

Well sam, I guess I was counting on the healthy irony quotient I know many of the good folks at the SDMB to have.

I was also hoping to get a good long list of why my stated viewpoints in this thread are dispicable, so on Page 2 we could keep the same plotline, but change the characters, and see why the same admonishments of the viewpoints no longer apply.

Hey - I hadn’t really read much of the anti-terrorism threads, and I immediately got it!

So, no whoosh for me.

Do I get a gold star now? :slight_smile:

Heh. :wink: What brought that on?

samclem. They don’t own guns. Wouldn’t know how to load one of they did. One of them does have a sword, but, hell, I can beat him.

I accept your apology.
