I think we can say that confidently.

I would have said that confidently weeks ago.

I would have said that confidently when it happened, based on everything that we know.

So why are so many people rallying behind him?

It reminds me a lot of the OJ Simpson case.

And the reaction to that, we don't have time to get into all of that.

We actually had a whole segment prepared and going down memory lane and how many black activists and much of the black community at the time were supporting him despite the fact that it was so apparent

by all of the evidence presented that he was clearly guilty and the reaction to him being found not guilty in court, the disparate reactions between white Americans and black Americans.

We can at least put up this full screen, full screen eight that just shows this is representative.

We went through a ton of interviews at the time that showed the different reactions from black Americans and white Americans.

I mean, OJ Simpson clearly murdered

His wife murdered his ex-wife and murdered her alleged lover.

Even the stats at the time show that most of the black community supported OJ Simpson, despite all of this evidence where most white people did not.

Most white people were complaining that, you know, because he was famous and because he was rich.

He was shown partiality.

And then you saw a lot of black power, black support because of melanin count.

Again, is this indicative of every single person in every single race?

No, but it is a pattern that we unfortunately see a lot.

This idolatry of skin color, idolatry of melanin count, refusal to take emotions and to take your lived experience and your skin color out of the equation when it comes to justice.

And as law schools become more progressive and they lean toward this kind of like minority victim mentality, we are unfortunately going to see a movement in the direction of injustice that is called justice.
