Nancy Grace wails on Joe Oliver: "I hear him say fucking coons! I heard that, OK? I heard it!"

[SemperEadem]

11. If you never learn anything else in life, Joe Oliver, learn this;

you only know as much about a person as they let you know about themselves. Period. Plenty of convicted mass murderers have families, kids, sit up in church every sunday and sing and quote the gospel--the BTK killer for one--and you can ask anyone who knew them about their criminal proclivities and they will all say the same: "he was a model citizen; he was a good husband and father; he was this and he was that. But NEVER does "he was a dark, dangerous criminal" come out of their mouths.

You only know what your boy wanted you to know about him. Therefore, you are not an authority on who he is. You only know your version of who he is, NOT who he actually is. He may never have used slurs in your presence; but in the presence of others--and clearly on the phone with the police--he used them. If denial makes you sleep better at night, have at it, Hoss. But we all are not required to ride your ride with you.
