Oscar Pistorius’ Apology: Did he hire an acting coach?

April 22, 2014/15 Comments/in Emotions, murder/by Eyes for Lies

Have you heard that a well known South African journalist has come out and said that Oscar Pistorius hired an acting coach?

I haven’t seen the South African journalist talk of the alleged allegations to see if I believe her (she would have to talk in English for me to do an analysis), but I can tell you that to me Oscar Pistorius’ apology falls flat on its face.  Furthermore, his crying sounds like acting to me, so if he had a coach, they failed him.

Oscar said in his apology, “I would like to take this opportunity to apologize — to Mr. and Mrs. Steenkamp, to Reeva’s family — to those who are here today who knew her.”

He continued, “I’d like to apologise and say that there’s not a moment and there hasn’t been a moment since this tragedy happened that I haven’t thought about your family. I wake up every morning and you’re the first people I think of, the first people I pray for. I can’t imagine the pain and the sorrow and the emptiness that I’ve caused you and your family.”

“I was simply trying to protect Reeva. I can promise that when she went to bed that night she felt loved. I’ve tried to put my words on paper many, many times to write to you but no words will ever suffice” said Oscar.

I have to ask you what is Oscar apologizing for?  If you notice he doesn’t say.  He doesn’t claim what he has done on any level by owning that he accidentally took Reeva’s life nor does he talk of any regret!  Oh no.  In his apology he says he was SIMPLY just trying to protect Reeva.

Unbelievable!

I am also taken by his word choice when he says, “I can’t imagine the pain and sorrow and the emptiness.”

This stopped me dead in my tracks.

If you killed someone that you supposedly loved, would you not understand the pain, sorrow and emptiness left by her void?

Hello? Does that give you a clue to the callous mind of Oscar Pistorius?

Chilling, isn’t it?

If you cared and loved her as he claimed–you most certainly would UNDERSTAND!

Can you see how he misses the mark with his words?

His cry on an emotional level is void, too. He isn’t shedding any tears that are noteworthy if you ask me because if he did, he would have congested his sinuses, but he clearly didn’t.

Oscar Pistorius is a cold-blooded killer if you ask me.  A remorseless man who is only feeling horrible at the thought of losing his freedom!
