My wife got her hands on a copy of "the video tape" last week, and we watched it after shooing the kids to bed one night.

He's going to jail.

He's going to jail for a very long time.

He needs to have his privates hooked up to a high voltage device of some sort and jolted eighteen or eighty times.

This story of his about not being able to see him with an underaged girl on the tape are bogus. It's obvious that it's him, and anyone with half a brain can see that this girl was underaged. It made me sick to my stomach.

I hope the judge throws him UNDER the jail.

With a big ugly guy named Rufus with no teeth, body odor and a broken bottle.

"He showed he loved us like we love him," added Ken Davis, 16."

Totally surreal.

I was hoping this story was from the Onion.

GOOD GRIEF!

Is that a tape thats available for sale? Doesnt seem like it would be for sale if the girl is under age. Not that I'm running out to blockbuster to look for it...seems strange that you can get a copy.

I agree with "Queen Sister" on this one.

Where exactly did your wife run across the tape if you don't mind me asking?

Someone where she works got ahold of it from a stand selling bootleg tapes. I'm sure that if you hunt around you can find it in most larger cities...

Not that I'm condoning that sort of thing...

"Kids need something to reach for--they have no role models," said Janet Edmond, who helped organize the bus with the children.

So let's make THIS PIG a role model!

Unbelievable.

Adults led them in singing R. Kelly anthems "I Believe I Can Fly"

He should be thrown in jail simply for his part in making this butt-awful song popular.

A lot of folks are still stuck on his image from "I Believe I Can Fly."

I can't think of any realistic excuse. I'm waiting for the "Free R. Kelly" t-shirts to show up...

Black conservative ping

If you want on (or off) of my black conservative ping list, please let me know via FREEPmail. (And no, you don't have to be black to be on the list!)

Extra warning: this is a high-volume ping list.

OH. MY. GOD.

That's it. It's official. The entire world has gone crazy. I'm holing up in my house with a lot of ammo and food.

Let's ignore the fact that R.Kelly is completely untalented. Let's ignore the fact that his music is 100% derivative "Songs to woo your b*tch by"-type crap. Let's just focus on the fact that some insane adults brought kids to cheer on someone accused of f**king children.

I have officially withdrawn from 21st-century America.

From what I "hear", you can get it over the net. Probably off Kazaa or Edonkey.

To steal a line from South Park:

But Dude, you have sex with children!

Yes, and yes.

Yes, it's a fact, yes, it's on the tape, and yes, the tape will be shown in trial. Like I said, it was pretty difficult to watch.

The whole thing was somewhere between 45 and 60 minutes long. I had to fast forward through a fair amount of it as it was difficult to watch.

The camera angles early in the tape were questionable in terms of identifying either the age of the girl or for ascertaining the identity of the man. Further along in the tape, it becomes obvious. And if I could tell (considering that this was at least a fourth generation dub, and the degredation was evident), then I'm sure the jury, with a first or second generation dub, will be able to tell.

Image is everything.

The Deathists have never had any compunction about using children for their crusades.
