O.J. Simpson, jailed for robbery after being found not guilty of murder, says he wants to die “his way.”
From the Daily Mail story:
OJ Simpson has gone on hunger strike in prison, saying, ‘I used to live my way, and now I’m going to die my way,’ sources have claimed.
ojsimpsonSo, how about it, assisted suicide advocates: Rather than forcing him to engage in what euthanasia advocates tout as VSED (voluntarily stop eating and drinking), why not give him an overdose?
After all, he does not have a quality of life he finds acceptable–the actual basis for advocating assisted suicide. He wants to “die my way.” Why not?
I’ll answer: Because a truly compassionate society doesn’t accede to suicidal desires of our brothers and sisters. We try to help them past the darkness–whether caused by illness, grief, tired of living, or imprisonment.
By the way: This isn’t a product of my paranoid imagination: Some “right to die” advocates have already endorsed allowing assisted suicide for prisoners who would rather end it all than remain incarcerated.
Drag him to the gas chamber and make it quick, lol
He wants to go to Hell to keep looking for the real killer.
FH. LHD.
What was that old song?——tears of a clown?
The guy caught smuggling cookies wants to die of starvation?
LOL
Send him careening out of the upper deck at Dodger Stadium in a wheelchair. Works for me.
If he is miserable now, I say no.
didn’t that happen in a movie once?
Let him. He’s human debris. Then toss his murderous carcass into a dumpster.
Beheading... perhaps by guillotine.
Give him a knife and let him slash his throat.
The longer he rots in jail, the better.
Force feed him Sriracha.
OJ was seriously depressed. His finances were depleted paying his defense attorneys. His reputation was shot. Hertz and everybody else cancelled his endorsement contracts.
He decided the only thing left to do was to block a LA freeway and extort sympathy money from motorists. He picks a busy spot on the Santa Monica Freeway, pulls his SUV across three lanes of traffic and gets out. Of course, traffic pulls around him initially. But it is California and, within minutes, the entire freeway is gridlock and shut down.
Traffic is honking well before the cops arrive and try to talk OJ off the freeway. While the pros talk to OJ , the remaining cops, trying to keep things cool, start walking between the angry stopped motorists to explain the situation. A half mile or so down, one guy is pig-biting mad and demands to know what's going on.
"It's OJ," the cops admit. "He is really depressed and is threatening to set himself on fire unless he can collect $5000 to pay off this month's legal bill."
"How much have you collected so far?", asks the guy.
"About 40 gallons," replies the cop.
Does Hell have mirrors?
Just sounds to me like he’s trying to get back in trim for his eventual release.
