Provided he makes it to trial, the circus around this is going to be INSANE.

Wondering if his defense will use a mental breakdown excuse, since he underwent spinal surgery and then dropped contact with friends and family.
Interesting to see how it will play out.

People are making jokes about this photo but be prepared for the media to hand select photos that make him look deranged as possible.

“One thing is you’re dealing with a customer service employee who really sees everybody and that’s what helped the police identify him,” Sami said.

Wtf does that even mean. They need to hire these McDonalds workers ASAP if that’s the case

If OJ got off why can’t he?

Fox News was saying ‘thanks to the HERO McDonald’s worker’s I couldn’t stop laughing.

Hero? Really? Get allllllll the way the fuck outta here with that shit. Mainstream media is sweating so hard to make us hate him.

“What is the charge? Eating a meal? A succulent Chinese meal?”

Deadass looks like waluigi in that pic

Beware the smear campaign

“This is unjust and an insult to the intelligence of the American people and their lived experience!” is what he shouted as he was being hauled into the building.
Goddamn hero.

I don’t care if he was a MAGAt. We are all collectively literally sick, and figuratively sick of being sick of these greedy assholes making massive amounts of money off denying us coverage and killing us with zero repercussions.

Then they gaslit us into believing this is somehow a personal failing.

JURY NULLIFICATION!
The government hates this trick.

They can’t make me hate him. He’s a symbol now.

“As he entered the courtroom today, the 26-year-old could be heard yelling, in part, “it’s completely out of touch and an insult to the intelligence of the American people. It’s lived experience!””

this is gonna be in the history books

Not one to normally condone violence, I do wonder at what point persistent medical maleficence by the insurance companies would be considered “violence.” When a company denies medical treatment at twice the industry standard, doesn’t that raise some regulatory questions? When not regulated properly, at what point do we start considering actions like his defense against the threat of violence or even violence currently being perpetrated when reasonably necessary treatment is being denied?

Fuck McDonald’s

Eh, the box has been opened. The rich aren’t untouchable.

look at the cop grabbing his neck like he’s a big man now that the guys in cuffs. coward class traitors.

It only takes one for a hung jury.

that was a FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT moment, he’s essentially reminding the American people he did what he did (allegedly) for them. What he screamed while being rushed into the courtroom was, “It’s an insult to intelligence of the American people”

Thanks for the memes, Luigi

Ya know back in colonial America and into our country’s beginnings. When settlors were slaughtering natives so they could encroach on their lands, oftentimes they would never be convicted of any wrongdoing because juries viewed their actions as necessary to further society and would acquit them unanimously.

Just a thought I had.

Is OJ’s lawyer still able to work or is he dead?

“Police aggressively violated the suspected UHC CEO assassins rights. Here’s why that’s a good thing” -Vox probably

The media scrambling to backpedal on the thirst pictures they posted earlier

Man of the people

Jury nullification. We all need to repeat this legal principle till every American knows about it. Judges often will not inform juries about this option–they and the State do not like jury nullification. Who ever ends up being on the jury, at least one of the 12 better know about this option, and raise it for the other jurors to consider.

“Jury nullification refers to a jury’s knowing and deliberate rejection of the evidence or refusal to apply the law either because the jury wants to send a message about some social issue that is larger than the case itself, or because the result dictated by law is contrary to the jury’s sense of justice, morality, or fairness. Essentially, with jury nullification, the jury returns a “not guilty” verdict even if jurors believe beyond a reasonable doubt that the defendant broke the law. This can occur because a not guilty verdict cannot be overturned and jurors are protected regardless of their verdicts.” [https://www.law.cornell.edu/wex/jury_nullification](https://www.law.cornell.edu/wex/jury_nullification)

i’d be yelling too if i was being dragged around by the neck like a misbehaving kitten

JURY NULLIFICATION.

This is a still shot from a video of him being taken from a car into the station. Watched at normal speed this snarling image is imperceptible. This is a very deceptive photo making him look like a snarling animal.
