Worse than perplexing. Downright nauseating.

So sickening, you can't tear yourself away for the past several hours, in spite of a warning by the Admin.

I find this conversation pointless. Comparing Jackson to Biblical figures is almost obscene. And no one can call me much of a Christian. I do try however

“It’s hilarious that you actually thought that

1. Wiki would have child porn
and
2. I would link to it here.”

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

You are championing a couple of perverts that took photos of naked children and then posted links encouraging people to click on them. God only knows what links you might post. Ever heard of spoofing? Sorry, I wouldn’t trust you as far as I could throw you.

As I said - not interested in that pervert Lewis Carroll or his pervert Communist sidekick Chaplin. And I couldn’t care less what “artsy” icon status they may have in certain “Uber-hip” circles.

If you try to hold up Carrol and Chaplin as some sort of defense of Baby-Dangle Man, then boy is that ever telling.

Nothing they did in show business excuses their abuse and exploitation of children. You are obviously one who worships at the feet of “celebrities”.

Reminds during the trial, all the books of nude and semi-nude boys found at Neverland. Defense argued successfully that they were merely art books. They weren’t shown on CTV, where I watched the trial, and reporters that viewed them were split on question of “art” or “porn”. I believe some were definitely art books.

“Are your comments coming from your *perfection* or your *hypocrisy*?”

Um...what?

“...or is it just coming from anger and hate?”

Oh, I do get angry. I’m one of the few males left who dares show anger, yes.

I don’t hate Michael Jackson at all (read my first post).

I just know which way the wind blows, and this man was a pedophile.

I don’t need high-priced attorneys and a biased jury to tell me that.

I cannot PROVE he harmed children, but I’m no dummy.

“Hey kiddies, come over to my “Neverland Ranch” and play on my kiddie rides. I’m 35 years old, but hey, what’s wrong with ‘loving’ someone else’s children by having them sleep in my bed with me, huh?”

I’ll eat my leather loafers, heel to toe, if he wasn’t a pedophile.

“Yawn. Been called worse.”

I have no doubt about that.

‘King of Pop’ Michael Jackson is dead
Michael Jackson, the show-stopping singer whose best-selling albums — including “Off the Wall,” “Thriller” and “Bad” — and electrifying stage presence made him one of the most popular artists of all time, died Thursday, CNN has confirmed.

“Most adults can recognize and separate both Jackson’s extraordinary artistic talent and his twisted, tortured psyche.”

Sure, but others have some level of difficulty recognizing and separating that part where he had sex with kids.

Yeah, that one is a little tough to handle for some adults. I mean, dancing and wailing aside, of course.

This hatred of Michael Jackson is nauseating. FReepers acting as ghoulish as the Liberal mentalities we condemn daily. God help us if your vicious mentality is the matrix for conservatives seeking to lead our nation from the 0bama wilderness.

What he may or may not have done was adjudicated in the courts. Accept the verdicts or not. The results stand as rendered.

He's now dead. Let the dead go on to wherever it is their destinies take them. Since no one here is omnipotent, and I would hope no one here would claim to be, only He who created us knows with certainty what has become of Jackson's soul. I believe He is more compassionate than many here....which is, thankfully, the only truth that matters.

May he finally rest in peace.

Thanks for coming to my defense. I have to chuckle because I long ago stopped worrying about people who don’t debate in good faith and use vicious personal attacks as a matter of course. Life’s too short.
