Given the opportunity to send a son of our own off to Neverland, I think most of us would instinctively turn down the chance. Gee, ya think? This idiot is just another 'Jackson the pedophile' enabler.

A couple of white friends have asked me why this should be. I chalk it up to history and love.
I remember the MJ album "History" (and what a steaming pile of doggy-doo that one was!), but I don't recall him ever releasing an album called "Love"...
Or maybe that one was just for... (*edited due to the fact that the following thought is tasteless*)

Black racists and the folks who fall for the black racist line defend Michael Jackson. No other non-pedophilic adults do, except those few with an economic interest.

Our criminal justice system has historically been indifferent or downright hostile to the fates of black men. When I was five years old, I watched two beefy white police officers beat a black teenager to unconsciousness.My wife, who grew up in a small town in Nevada, tells stories of how the sheriff would shoot drifters and hitchhikers (usually white, some hispanic) and dump their bodies in mine shafts. I guess by her perspective this means that "our criminal justice system has historically been indifferent or downright hostile to the fates of white men."

"When I was five years old, I watched two beefy white police officers beat a black teenager to unconsciousness...." Odd how things change. Now, where I used to live in Detroit, it's just the opposite.

Not EVERY black family has a story like this but I understand what this author is trying to say. There are a lot of people that have had experiences and they'd like to blame Jacko's actions on someone else. Such people know deep down inside that Jacko is the only one at fault here.
The article isn't that bad.

Anyone who even begins to suggest that MJ is up against the wall because racists are prosecuting him is merely outing themselves as a racist. There's nothing 'black' about MJ anymore except his genes, and there hasn't been for a very long time.

I have been a victim of police brutality, I went to court and the guy was fired and put on probation. The officer or should I say officers where Hispanic and White. I don't think it was racial, I just think they where trying to show how much "powerful" they where and they did just that to a 17 yr. Old. Now that was 7 years ago. But you know what, I live on the border between a really wealthy neighborhood and Chicago and I do understand that they usually don't see blacks walk much less live amongst the wealthy but sometimes they go overboard. How about we get rid of the police and let communities form their own militia-type police, that way they know each other and there won't be any mistaken identity. I support the police, but they have too much power in certain instances and too little power in other(one example would be that bank robbery in California when they where out gunned, or when murderers and rapist are let go due to a minor police mistake.)

He is whiter than any white person I have ever seen, I think dude is an alien or much worse a liberal. Hey I was listening to Rush today and he had a commerical for CLR stating it gets rid of Lime, Rust, Grime, and Dirt. Does that mean it will get rid of the democrapic party if we pour it on them!

"Michael's repeated on-camera insistence that there's nothing wrong with having unrelated kids in his bed...makes him look bad."
Ya think?
Nobody ever brings it up that Jackson grabs his croch in front of thousands of children who come to see him preform. It is vulgar and overtly sexual. In my mind that is the biggest factor in raising suspicions about his intentions toward children that he sleeps in the same bed with. Whatever they one were with all their talent The Jacksons are really pathetic now. And it's not only Michale and Janet...Germaine's crying jag in that interview on FOX with that blond woman (forget her name) was the most manipulative, phoney, pathetic performance I have ever seen.

As far as I am concerned, the Jackson family is a bunch of freaks and perverts. Those that aren't as nuts a Michael would be wise to distance themselves from the center of the problem. None of us can control the actions of our siblings and family members. Supporting them when they have possible done something as hideous as the charges against Michael is beyond stupid, IMO.

As for the crotch grabbing: I wouldn't date someone who did that- I sure as he## wouldn't pay my hard earned money to go to a concert and watch someone do that.
Janet's actions in the past couple of weeks tells me that no one in the family has any FAMILY VALUES that parallel anything most of us got raised with.
She did something incredibly stupid and disgusting, but she tarred Justin Timberlake and alot of other persons with her stunt. I have no sympathy for the suits at CBS for booking this kind of "entertainment" in the first place, but I certainly hope this was all a rotten surprise on Justin.
OTOH, The grabbing at her costume and "ripping" it in front of what should be a very family involved audience tells me that he needs to rethink some of his actions, also.

I don't know what anyone is worried about. After all, we all KNOW what is going to happen:
1. Jackson's Lawyers will yell "racism"
2. The Jury will deadlock.
3. The Nation of Islam will issue threats and stage demonstrations.
4. And Jackson will (moon) walk.
Prediction: He will get away with it.
