The USC Football members have to take “Safe Knife, Glove Fitting and Bronco Driving” classes, ya know.

Given the level of violence that illegal aliens seem to bring with them when they settle into an area, OJ Simpson could be considered a role model for the new, fastest rising demographic in Southern California.

Are they going for the homicidal maniac football fan demographic?

Yet they keep Erasing history throughout the US by tearing down statues and changing school names.

Technically, he was found “not guilty” in the criminal trial but guilty in the civil “wrongful death” trial where the bar is set much lower for conviction. O.J.’s bust is still on display at the Pro Football Hall of Fame as well.

Rightly or wrongly, Simpson was found not guilty by a jury of his peers. I do not believe his Heisman Trophy was vacated or revoked. Erasing him from USC history is not so different from what is going on with what the left is doing with other parts of history.

As to USC’s neighborhood. In the 60s it was predominately black. Is it still or have they been pushed out with our newer diversity?

He doesn’t exist any longer for the Buffalo Bills and their team PR. OJ has disappeared down the memory hole.

The Heisman recognizes his achievements in the football field decades before he committed murder.

I’m reminded of King George V’s comment that if a Victoria Cross winner was condemned to death, he should be permitted to wear his VC on the gallows...

The juice’s bust is still in the Hall of Fame and will continue to be there. Rewriting history is a favorite preoccupation with the socialist left... But O. J. Simpson ran like a SOB and deserves to recognized for his athletic feats... That being said, I doubt that a whole lot of people would invite him to dinner.

I was hoping someone would have taken him out by now.

So? OJ served prison time years after his award earned at USC, for using a gun when trying to recover his personal property.

The accomplishments in college have no relevance to what he may have done many years later.
