That was my question. His poor children are not safe with him.
Or heterosexual porn might just get Michael off. I'm not sure I see a clear claim in this article that Jackson had kiddie porn in his place. They come close to saying it, but stop short.
One of those confiscated books withh photos of naked teenage boys was shown on the Today Show or some similar show, and it did not look pornographic unless you consider naked bodies just standing there porn. I don't think the Supreme Court does.
I hope prosecutors are relying on things they're not telling us to make their case.
But Sponge Bob says its ok. (/s)
Somehow Court TV obtained a copy of this book and showed some of the images on TV. I was wondering how they obtained it. They said that not all the pictures could be shown. Somene could claim that it was just a bunch of art photographs, but the book was clearly intended to appeal to people with more than just an artistic interest in boys.
I wonder if this is an effort at jury tampering by one side or the other. A self leak by Jackson's camp to argue bias and leaking. A deliberate leak by the prosecutor to create conviction inertia.
No, they are different songs.
"We Are Family" was by the Pointer Sisters. Nile Rogers helped write it in 1979. And the We Are Family Foundation uses the song as well as the theme to promote a global family concept, according to Roger's interview on O'Reilly. No other comment from me, on the group or it's intentions.
"We Are the World" was done by various artists including Michale Jackson, and has no links to the We Are Family Foundation. It was used to help Live Aid in 1985.
How can it be racism? He's white now.
An isolated photo of a naked child is not necessarily pornographic. To me it would depend on where and why it was taken. A book full of naked pre-teenage boys seems sick to me. If it's in the possession of a grown man who admits sleeping with boys, it's part of a pattern.
There was a certain wisdom in the old nuthouses - padded rooms and straitjackets. Maybe California authorities need to look into that.
Actually I heard that the We are Family organization was using a redone version of We are the World in its upcoming march campaign.
"Andy! Aaaaaaaaaaandy! We got a live one here!"
Why am I not surprised?
Lock Jackson up and throw away the key.
Well, for one he has not been found guilty of anything, and the materials found in his house, including the book being discussed in the article, are not illegal.
I want to know if anyone in here has porn magazines in the house with young kids.
Some states take the children away if they are spanked.
You can't tell me this man doesn't get special privileges because of who he is!
Yes, he does need to be convicted, and his children need to be placed in a safe environment. Obviously not with their "moms".
Michael Jackson is a very troubled soul, but that does not excuse him from his actions. The damage he's done to the young boys he's come in contact will be with them for the rest of their lives.
I think the parents who's sons have been molested by Jackson should be culpable as well, and charged with SOMETHING.
Anyone with half a brain who has followed this case knows that Jackson is a textbook pedophile. Are you excusing his behavior as an obsessive fan, or a NAMBLA member? Just wondering.....
Hell, he's been getting away with it for what, 15 years, probably longer? He's been all but openly flaunting the fact that he's a child molester, daring us to do anything about it. No surprise he's defiant - he thinks he'll be able to make this one go away as well, given enough money and Bill Clinton-style victim vamping for the media.
Besides, these perverts convince themselves that they haven't done any harm, that their victims wanted it, and that the only reason it's such a big deal is that the church and the "religious right" fill the kids' heads with guilt over their sexuality. And in the case of a Michael Jackson, the media just enables these attitudes because they worship "celebrities" and want "celebrities" to like them.
What a moron you are.
You accuse me of being a member of NAMBLA based on the fact that I stated a couple of truths?
Which of my statements either excused Jackson's behavior, or not the truth?
In this country, people are innocent until found guilty by a jury of their peers...try reading the US Constitution you peckerwood a$$hole POS.
The book in Jackson's possession is not classified as child porn, you can buy it over the counter at book stores, so until a jury decides that in the context of Jackson's other behavior it may have been used to feed his pederasty fantasies, or to seduce children, Jackson is guilty of nothing.
You need to put down the bucket of Colonel Sanders extra crispy, find a stationary bike, and start reading the posts in FreeRepublic so that you can learn some things; real courts are not run like Judge Hatchett's court rooms.
