I think the reason many of us feel that the children of the world are safer is because of his aborrhent behavior and ridiculous explanations regarding sleeping with little boys.
He offered the following, in spite of the publicity surrounding his behavior:
“Why can’t you share your bed? The most loving thing to do, is to share your bed with someone.”
And further described the practice as “very charming” and “very sweet.”
Jackson even said he would kill himself if he could not be close to young boys.
There are more statements that are bizarre given how this looks. It might have been understandable if he had said something on the order of “In retrospect, maybe that wasn’t a good idea”
Instead he sounded more like a spokesman for NAMBLA.
The trial also established his habit of sneaking alcohol in for minors and providing them with pornographic material.
