I think I just heard the stupidist comment I'll ever hear...
Some idiot fan was talking to the news about how he felt when he saw Michael Jackson being cuffed and walking to be charged. "It was liking watching Jesus Christ being convicted or something!"
What an idiot!!!! Give me that air back!! :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

How dare anyone compare such a freak to Jesus (PBUH)! :mad::mad::mad:
:rolleyes:
I just had a similar conversation with a friend today. My thoughts are this: It's possible that the attorney for the previous child and his parents said that if the case went to trial that there might not be sufficient evidence for a jury to convict. Perhaps he/she recommended they take an out of court settlement. You have to look at how diificult it is to get a jury to convict, especially with a celebrity (OJ, anyone?) How about that ridiculous case in Galveston with Durst. It seems that members of a jury practically want a video of the crime but then the prosecuting team would have the burden of proving the video wasn't doctored.Quote:

Jackson whould have been stoped 10 years ago and all these other children would never have been hurt by him. How any parent can take money over getting justice for thier child and all furture children, I will never understand.
Just saying ...
(Seems I always come late to these "fun" topics :) as my time for PTing is usually late at night. I see I'm missing all the action :D :eek: :D )
That cracked me up!! Yes, a waste of good oxygen on that guy!Quote:

Here is another thing I don't understand and maybe soem of the younger PT folks can help me. MJ isn't exactly the vogue pop dude these days. He hasn't released any hit music in forever. I was just suprised to hear a 13 year old boy's dying wish would be to meet Michael Jackson. Britney Spears----- much more understandable for a dying 13 year old boy. But Michael Jackson~ why does he even know who MJ is??
To answer your questions, 2 Kitties, I think it is because of their parents, more than anything. He was popular all through my childhood and early adult life because of the Jackson 5 and because of his solo successes through the early 80's. My 12 year old knows who he is because me (and of course, Thriller, which we still listen to on occasion). In fact, the last CD that he put out, my daughter specifically requested. I guess a guy like Michael is like Elvis and everyone knows who he is.
I think you're right, Logan. But "Dying Wish??" That is some crazy hero worship for a strange man:cool:
A little bit of trivia...
charges have not been filed yet....

LA Daily News 11/21/03-
From the News conference with the DA and Sheriff
from Santa Barbara-Sneddon is the DA-
Sneddon joked with a roomful of reporters, at one point drawing chuckles when he welcomed them to Santa Barbara with the line, "I hope that you all stay long and spend lots of money because we need your sales tax to support our offices."
