I also blame the jury. It’s appalling that anyone could come away from this thinking that anyone was at fault other than this woman.
Our judicial system is now flawed in a very fundamental way in the 21st century. The OJ Simpson trial showed that flaw in the late 20th century, and Dan Bongino played a recent clip from ESPN of one of the jurors from the OJ Simpson trial on his podcast today.
INTERVIEWER: You think that there were members of the Jury that voted to acquit OJ because of Rodney King?
JUROR: Yes.
INTERVIEWER: You do?
JUROR: Yes.
INTERVIEWER: How many of you think felt that way?
JUROR: Oh, probably 90% of them.
INTERVIEWER: 90%? Did you feel that way?
JUROR: Yes.
INTERVIEWER: That was payback?
JUROR: Uh huh.
INTERVIEWER: You think that was right?
As Bongino accurately points out, when institutions collapse, and faith in institutions collapse, we descend into anarchy. And this epitomizes the Left. This is their platform. They are the ones wholly to blame for this. It is my observation that these kinds of litigations and trial outcomes are entirely driven by the Left.
Justice Clarence Thomas gave a televised interview the other day, and he said as much without pulling any punches at all. He said the Left is completely incompatible with the principles on which our Republic was founded.
