O*J* S*mps*n Kicked Out of Louisville Restaurant

"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."

...

A customer came up to Ruby and was "giddy" about seeing S*mpson, Ruby said.

"I didn't want that experience in my restaurant," Ruby said, later adding that seeing Simpson get so much attention "makes me sick to my stomach."

AWE. SOME.

Good for him. I'd've kicked out that silly tittering customer as well. If I'd been in that restaurant and that filth had walked in, I would've left. And as I was leaving I would've yelled out "shouldn't you be spending that money to pay off your civil judgement for the deaths of Ron Goldman and Nicole Brown?"

Seriously, good for him. It's nice to see someone who hasn't bought into the whole drooling he's-famous-can-I-touch-him-OMG! subculture.

Ruby said after S*mpson left, people in the restaurant started applauding him. He said he has received about 100 positive e-mails since the incident.

I bet he's going to get some more after this article.

And this:

S*mpson's attorney, Yale Galanter, said the incident was about race, and he intended to pursue the matter and possibly go after the restaurant's liquor license.

"He screwed with the wrong guy, he really did," Galanter said by telephone Tuesday night.

Riiight. Because there isn't any other reason anyone could possibly have for not wanting that filth in there restaurant. And dude...you might not want to say things like "He screwed with the wrong guy" about S*mpson...I mean, surely you're not saying he might actually DO something, right? He would never do anything ILLEGAL, right?

Those poor kids. Those families...Jesus, why won't he just pay them the judgement and apologize? Why can't he try to make up for what he did somehow?

That is just...Awesome!

I will say, though, I don't find the comment "he screwed with the wrong guy" to be an implied threat of violence, despite what we all know the guy to be capable of. I read the comment as "he screwed with a guy who has more lawyers than cousins." Which is an entirely different sort of threat. No less sickening, of course.

Oh, of course. I didn't think it was actual physical threat, it just seems foolish not to spell out exactly what you mean when you're talking about a psychopath who almost cut his ex-wife's head off. My remark was more facetious than anything.

My response to the lawyer would be "yeah, good luck with that." It's obvious the guy was talking a big game--if the proprietor had said anything about race, the lawyer would've mentioned it right off the bat. He didn't, and so he knows he doesn't have a case.
