I think this is just the least of our worries regarding the race card. The addiction of victimhood for people like MJ and his kind is an addiction, stronger than crack, cocaine, heroin addiction or any other kind of drug addiction.

The blacks citing "racism" [sic] in these trials are simple operating on the principle that it's more fun to blame things than to fix them, hence that's what they and their leaders often do. Do they even see how weak and how much of a joke they appear to be when, even in the new millenium, they play the victim and say , "we can't fix our problems, we can't do it on our own, whites are too racist" when everybody else can take care of themselves?

Larry Elder has got the problem pinned down, and I have dream that one day blacks who are guilty of murder and rape will throw the race card-and it will NOT WORK.

"Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha . . . While all of white America weeps, every black person is celebrating. Lordy, Lordy, Lordy, we beat you guys."

Why would blacks care about MJ? MJ doesn't even want to be black. As far as I can tell, he only hangs out with whites.

Holy smoke, did you see Wackos website? This is unreal, it starts off with a flash movie saying "Innocent" with marching band music, then "Vindication" then at the top he compares what happened to him to the fall of the Berlin wall, to Martin Luther King, Nelson Mandela..Say what?? This guy is completely out of his mind one can short of a six pack freggin` nuts!

Michael Jackson is Black?

"Michael Jackson dodged a bullet"

And like Robert Blake, he should SHUT THE F- UP about it, and never engage in that behavior again.

But of course, he won't stay away from the bad behavior, and the next time, there will be no mercy.

Good column, except I disagree with this point: Race, quite appropriately, played no role.

Larry, bless his heart, does not probably understand just how much whites fear the "racist" label. Race played a part, just not the way you would normally expect.

After Michael Jackson's arrest for child molestation, brother Jermaine Jackson called it a "modern-day lynching."

What is the freggin` deal with Jermaine anyway and grease?? Everytime I see this guy it looks like he dipped his head in a jar of vaseline or something. In his hair, all over his face..I saw him the other night on TV and it was gross, his face was all shiny, totally obvious he takes some sort of grease and puts it all over his face..Look at this guy, look at his right eyebrow, it looks like some of it is hanging off there...

Michael Jackson may have dodged the bullet that was properly aimed at him --- but it hit society right between the eyes...

The verdict was a travesty....More the result of incompetent public servants and brain dead jurors....than the innocence of the 46 year old freak and self loathing pedophile..
