OJ gets the boot

LOUISVILLE, Ky. -- The owner of an upscale steakhouse in Louisville said he asked O.J. Simpson to leave his restaurant the night before the Kentucky Derby because he is sickened by the attention Simpson still attracts.

"I didn't want to serve him because of my convictions of what he's done to those families," Jeff Ruby said in a telephone interview Tuesday. "The way he continues to torture the lives of those families ... with his behavior, attitude and conduct."

Interesting standard, that you find me creepy for a part-time job, but your friend isn’t for wanting to get her picture taken with a killer.

O.J.?

Can I get a Don Imus and a Michael Richards combo chorus?

[TopoGigio]

Good grief!

Arnt you late for a Dungeons and Dragons meeting somewhere?

The man walked by her, and she asked for his picture. Big deal!

[Xenalyte]

I don’t play D&D.

I also don’t socialize with killers.

Thanks, though.

BTW, I’m leaving this thread, so if you wish to continue insulting me, feel free to do so.

>>>The man walked by her, and she asked for his picture. Big deal!

And that IS creepy.

"...but your friend sounds pretty creepy too."

TG left that (first) impression of his/her friend upon me also.

A pic with O.J. Slashman? No thanks....

[Scarpetta]

Your slip is showing.

[Beckwith]

I didn’t suggest your friend was creepy. Her behavior is creepy.

What’s creepy is women’s fascination with this double murderer.

And — most of the ones that throw themselves at this POS are quite attractive. Your friend just meets the profile.

OJ - is that you?

[presently no screen name]

Sorry, my error. Didn’t realize you were referring to his lawyer - I got the names confused. I was thinking of the owner of the restaurant! I agree with you.

[fieldmarshaldj]

Not necessarily. Remember that Robert Blake was acquitted, too. As someone pointed out at the time, the only real color that was the issue was the color green. Money and celebrity. Though the collective IQ of the OJ jury was probably less than our respective shoe sizes, no doubt most of the members were thinking to themselves, “That’s OJ, man ! I don’t want to send the Juice to prison !”

[AxelPaulsenJr]

I’d rather see Xena in her outfit than your friend with Simpson.

And OJ has the money to pay lawyers. He is the one who is racist. I have yet to see him with a black woman other than his daughter. He hands out with Kaito and blond women because he pretends to be white.

[HEY4QDEMS]

I agree, OJ couldn’t find ‘the hood’ even with a road map.

[Paleo Conservative]

If he were white, he would be on death row.

[stanz]

A day will come when the general population is going to rise up against lawyers; the left educated elite.

I personally cannot wait for that day.

[BronzePencil]

OJ’s attorney said that OJ and his party left the restaurant quietly and with dignity. But that’s not surprising. If anyone knows how to leave the scene quietly it’s OJ - ha
