Oh dear, I see that you have COMPLETELY misconstrued my intention in making that statement about perception. Even when I stated clearly that I didn't say that to boast, you've read into it a message completely opposite to that which I intended. My fault for not anticipating that. No, I was NOT...

CARRIED OVER FROM THREAD 29 All points well taken (and lol to the joke), although may I add that it was not my intention to be personal. Again I was just offering a helpful tip that you can take or leave. You seem to be an intelligent person. I just feel that you can perhaps enhance that...

I don't think I'm not a sleuther because I believe OP is telling truth. Unlike some of the others here, I haven't begun my research from a position of suspicion and then looked at aspects of the case that validate those suspicions. I have begun from the position that he is innocent until proven...

Nope, I wasn't implying that Nel was picking on him because he's disabled. However, I do believe that his is using OP's emotional episodes for his own ends: misguidedly against OP. Yes, because he tried the bully tactics before and they backfired on him, with the media accusing him of going...

And you believe that because over and over again Nel called him a liar. That's smear.

Surprised?

So why then did he keep making reference to his getting emotional? You can't have your cake and eat it. So there's your reasonble doubt. He MAY be not faking it. Read my statements carefully. That's exactly what I said. With all due respect, you react too fast and jump too quickly to...

So what do you call appearing in court, standing in the witness box and agreeing to be cross examined? Actions speaks louder that words, but he took responsibility in words as well. He told the first person who appeared on the scene that he had shot Reeva by mistake. But in any case, I'm not...

Well you know, Viper, in my experience it ain't over until it's over or until the fat lady sings. Let's just say we'll see. I think it isn't so much that the DT has done a bad job, but the prosecution uses smear tactics rather than incontrovertible evidence to score points. And, well, anyone can...

If there was a faint light on, it could have been the cell phone light.

What I feel a lot of people don't realise, Gerrie Nel included, is that OP's emotions are very real, and not faked. The reason this is a source of confusion is because in some ways he seems mature and grown up, in other ways he is not. According to experts: "Children with physical or learning...

BIB. I didn't say they were all like that. I said often, which means not always, right :-). Accorsing to experts: "Children with physical or learning disabilities may be at risk for unhealthy or delayed emotional development. Learning disabilities can exacerbate emotional issues and prevent...

No, all these are just your interpretations about who this man is, not who he is.

The case is far from over yet. I gather Roux has at least 1 gun expert who will testify. I'd be jumping the gun (no pun intended) if I said he was guilty of anything more than an accidental discharge at this point. I admit that he seems to be reckless with guns, but I need to see the whole case...
