39% is not a far cry from 50.
Guess they can't comprehend the slew of 911 calls, the bloody glove, the blood in his car, the blood spatter on his socks, and of course, he would never wear his words, "Those ugly ass shoes" referring to the Bruno Magli shoes... that was until this photo was discovered.
39% of blacks are not stupid. It's just that they think with their skin instead of their brain.

Only 39 percent of black people now think O.J. Simpson was not guilty in 1995, compared to the 69 percent who thought so at the time.
The vast decrease in the African American community's belief in his innocence in the 1994 murders of Nicole Brown Simpson and Ron Goldman was found in a survey done for CBS News.
The news comes with the recent announcement that O.J. Simpson could be released on parole as soon as Monday in Las Vegas under a plan being finalized by Nevada officials.
Simpson's release is expected after nine years behind bars for his 2008 armed robbery and kidnapping convictions following a confrontation with two sports memorabilia dealers in a Las Vegas hotel room.
The study also found that only 27 percent of people think he will regain celebrity status.
65 percent believe he will be mostly ignored.
The number of people overall who believe that he killed the two in 1994 has also increased, going from 67 percent to 71 percent.
It also found that both Black people believed the case was determined by race at a rate of 44 percent compared to 39 percent who believed by merit of the case.
This compares to 37 percent of whites who think the case was decided by race and 41 percent who believe by merit.
In terms of ages following the trial, the study found that two-thirds of adults 45 and older followed along.
Nine in 10 Americans under 30 and roughly 50 percent of 30 to 44-year-old folks did not follow along or were too young.
Before the verdict, most Americans believed the U.S. criminal justice system treated blacks fairly. About half of Black people felt that way.
Today, eight in 10 Black people and four in 10 whites believe that the system is biased against blacks.
