Did anyone else see if Justin Timberlake pulled off Janet Jackson's top?

The supremes was a female pop group of the 60's now I believe the supreme court is most likely correct.

Ah, for the court of the Wall of Sound,
when King James Brown
was the Saul of Wound
agreement would abound.

If they find the sight of breasts disturbing, then I would recommend taking them to a good youth councellor.

....and another product of the MTV brain-(dead)washed generation speaks out

This has been shown over and again in studies that children that are exposed to sex at a young age tend to have abnormal sex lives,

Children who are abused do, indeed, have a statistically noticable increased chance of having abnormal sex lives.

However, Nixon's Meese Commission, which bent over backwards to demonstrate the sexual exposure in the general marketplace caused "abnormal sex lives". Failed miserably to make this connection, dispite being staffed and rigged to produce the opposite scientific conclusion.

Exposure to sexual abuse produces sexual abuse--which most everyone is rightly opposed to, for the same fundamental reason as we are opposed to murder, robbery, and vandalism. Exposure to friendly normal sex, produces more friendly normal sex, which I am not opposed to--there's way to little of it in our culture as it is. It wasn't Janet's nipple exposure, after writhing around seductively onstage, that was harmful--it was her hypocritically hiding it from view that turned it into something slightly kinky and sleezy.

I think it should.

I do know that AOL is trying to get their money back, so If they continue on this course, I'd be inclined to let them off. But I'd say CBS, MTV, Janet Jackson, Justin Timberlake, P DIDDY and his gyrating group, and anyone else who broke the FCC Rules of decency during the hours this telecast was displayed should be sued.

We were too complacent for too long with the rules, and this is what we got.

Whats next? Murder on live tv?

I hope there *is* a class action law suit. People may think I'm being outlandish, but who would have dreamed this day would be here now?

Look at this article:

Americans don't care what Canadians think.

Oregon has a law that anywhere a man can take off his top, a woman can also. Oregon also has strong protection of the right to nurse in public most anywhere. & I'll be surprised if your state doesn't have similar laws.

It's just a breast. Good grief. What a bunch of whining bottle-feeders.

[kdurrell]

The stunt was against the "rules", I won't argue that. BUT America is probably the most uptight nation in the western hemisphere regarding topless females. Point being we might be shocked, but the rest of the world probably didn't even blink.

While I'm at it, isn't there a better way to spend my tax dollars than investigating something that already happened? Just fine CBS a million or so (no explanation needed, PLENTY of people saw what happened) and be done with it...

Its about a man showing agression grabbing a woman's tit in front of millions of people. Its about shoving their values down our throats. That half-time show was total crap. Keep that trash on MTV, not on NFL games. I'm calling for the firing of the NFL commissioner.

[Marysecretary]

No, I don't watch garbage. I know this is what kids are seeing and I am NOT happy about it. They just weren't expecting to see this crap on Super Bowl Sunday.

[Marysecretary]

If you want to watch trash, go ahead. I don't. People should be able to expect that something they watch, like a Super Bowl game, isn't going to have trashy perverts doing trashy things. I don't care what other countries do. You expect trash from the French!

Maybe the NFL was trying to appeal to men. I know they appealed to me. Its a football game, guess who is more likely to play or watch football.

It requires a certain level of aggression for a man to have normal sex. Predation is a bad thing, battery is a bad thing, but aggression per se, is not a bad thing. The lyrics and the behavior on stage was an artistic rendition of two people engaged in co-operative sexual arousal, and the flash of breast was appropriate to the artistic message, in context. If it offended you, you should have exercised your offbutton option when Timberlake and Jackson started writhing in each other's arms, and singing about sex RIGHT NOW. I am less than enamored of your being offended for the sake of other people, or the good of the commonwealth. that is just self-serving, unproven nonsense. The Republic has not been well-served by our puritan attitudes toward healthy, co-operative sexual expression.

[COURAGE]

So I can come in your living room and show my breast or simulate rape in front of you, your mother or your children without your knowledge? Is that correct and proper? It's not obscene, it's not proper. It's should not a halftime show. If we wanted a strip show and breast, I know were to go. If I want it on my TV, I'll switch over to Playboy, et al channels. I was not shock, but annoyance. My first though, here they go again.

[COURAGE]

I stand corrected. But after this, you know that be like hawks next years.

So we can go back the healthy practice of watching men bruise and cripple each other, for millions of dollars, over moving a piece of pigskin a few yards, while periodically fighting, yelling, insulting, and butt-patting each other, while nubile young women who are half-dressed in 40 degree weather bounce their mammary glands rythmically and suggestively in lathered appreciation.

it was kid rock that did that...not chris rock.

[Vets_Husband_and_Wife]

Couldn't agree more.

Saw where Justin Timberlake was laughing and enjoying the heck out of it on Access Hollywood. But then.... they didn't get the reaction they expected.

So now they are scared and *singing* a different tune!

People are OUTRAGED.. so now "it was a mistake"... "a malfunctioning outfit" .. one that JUST HAPPENED to have a piece of jewelry that looked like a silver sunburst on her right nipple when Justin Timberlake yanked her bra off her right breast!

As she stood there with her arm at her side all poised and ready for him to RIP OFF her bra.

But wait!! She only expected him to tear off the top part, and leave the red lace on! Yeah right!! Now they insult our intelligence with LIES!

The song said "I'll have you naked by the end of this song."

They fooled NO ONE! She made sure the camera's got a good shot before she covered herself, and he stood there with her top clasped in his hands with a glare into the camera's too. (Their reps told the camera people where to stand to get a good shot! Give me a break!)

This isn't Hollywood! Their kind of indecency doesn't wash with the REAL world. Perhaps they are *finally* going to find that out.

Drudge did have up the MTV pages showing them announcing "shocking surprizes".. and things like that. He also showed how after it didn't go over well, they wiped clean their caches!!!

But they have been saved. People copied them. So it didn't work!

A handler for *Jackson and Timberlake* told reporters to "be ready for the surprize". So again.. we aren't stupid like they think.

This won't fly..

Anyway, I wish Mr. Powell great success. I hope this goes far. Because if it doesn't we will see even WORST. This is the result of the KISS between Madonna and Brittney.

I shudder to think what will come after this, if nothing happens.
