Was anyone on Lemmy, except me, alive at the time of the trial?

I’m in my 40s. Yeah, I was.

Hello I was alive. They made a joke out of that judge with the Dancing Itos, and made the whole thing into a circus. The victims got entirely swallowed up. Nicole Brown Simpson had called the cops for his actions nine times.

yep. I never really paid attention to the show drama/trial. it was clear from the outset that he was guilty.

You’re 17 days old, how could you have been alive in 1995?

[–] Hikermick 6 points 8 months ago

I was a young adult at the time (born in 66 so GenX for whatever it's worth). My take is the LAPD as a whole were despised and not just along racial lines. Watch any documentary on the early SoCal punk scene and you'll see what I mean

[–] MedicPigBabySaver 5 points 8 months ago

Yes. I knew that fucker was guilty the moment I heard of the murders.

I'm even old enough to see him play in the NFL. Although I have zero memories of that time as a child. Even though the Patriots and Buffalo would've played together.

I was, but I was very young and on the other side of the planet. All I remember is allegations that he was on sedatives during thebtrial, as he seemed so calm and composed about it all.
