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.

"There isn't a black family in America who doesn't have similar stories"

Idiotic BS

[KangarooJacqui]

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*)

[per loin]

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.

Did you all hear that, Mayor for life, Marion 'Crack Head' Barry is going to run for city council in DC?

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 thought MJ was white,I need to keep up with these things.Sorry

"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.

[DarthMaulrulesok]

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.

[Penner]

Second, Michael Jackson's artistic influence is pretty much nonexistent today. Young people want 50 Cent, Beyonce and Kid Rock. Unless he somehow pulls together an astonishing comeback, Michael's years of musical genius are behind him.

Wrong, right, and wrong.

"There seem to be only two main schools of thought concerning the one-time "King of Pop": he's either guilty of molesting a young boy and ought to be tried, convicted and put in a cell deep under a prison or he's innocent."

There are also those of us who think he's at least entitled to a fair trail BEFORE we mentally toss him in that hole, too.

I guess we're the real minority, though...

This article is leftist crap. No one in this country has gone to the electric chair for kidnapping and rape.

The only people to be judicially executed in the USA without a murder conviction were white people. There's 10 bonus points if you can name them.
