I find this whole public lynching even sicker than the thought of him being guilty of what they accuse him of having done.
A replay of what happened a decade ago. He paid to make the trial go away, and quite frankly, I would have too. When bullshit like this gets started, common sense and facts go out the door. Few people on this board have any facts regarding this case, all of it is based on what you read in the papers or watch on FOX. Sorry, but to me that is not enough evidence to get a public lynching and bashing any support from me.
Even if he were a pedophile, he's a far cry from being the only one. I'd say that few pedophiles out there get as much media attention as this alleged one. He's a pop icon, he's rich, he's socially awkward. So naturally he MUST be guilty of at least SOMETHING.
He's innocent as far as I am concerned unless he gets convicted. The fact that he paid to make the trial go away 10 years ago proves nothing to me, one way or another. The kid whose parents took him to court ten years ago said at the time that MJ never did anything to him. Besides, if my child was sexually abused, I wouldn't accept a plea bargain. That's like setting a price tag on your child's innocence and emotional security. It doesn't matter what you end up using that money for. It's immoral to accept a cash settlement under such circumstances. But that's just me.
The public needs someone to vent on. The media needs someone to make money off of. This month is MJ, next someone else. Who gives a fuck.
