If The 'Love Glove' Don't Fit, You Must Acquit
Permalink Closed


So once again, a big celebrity evades prosecution for a heinous crime.


Michael Jackson Not Guilty


Now I don't care if you think he did it, or didn't do it. Regardless of how he acts, looks or thinks, no one but the people in the courtroom are prepared to make that assessment. Unless you heard all the testimony verbatim, I don't care what you THINK should've happened to him. Personally, I think he is innocent, just very eccentric as well. I think he has a child's sense of right and wrong because he has never learned otherwise. And being eccentric isn't illegal, just strange. And while I don't agree with many of the pubicized choices he has made I don't agree with but as long as he hasn't hurt anyone


However, I DO want to know of you think he got a fair trial, or was it biased? If it WAS biased, is it because he was black? Or rich? Or previously accused? Or weird? Or something else?

You probably did this unintentionally, however...

This does sort of come off as an interesting way to get out an opinion, and then shut out the chance of others stating theirs.

This gets sent to the who the h#ll cares file. I don't know Michael Jackson. His life doesn't affect me. And therefore, I'm not going to waste brainwaves discussing his stupid grope-a-dope case. Isn't there NEWS for the media to cover?

No, genius, it's a 'presumed innocence' thing.


I was just trying to contrast the court of public opinion versus what actually counts, which is evidence and testimony, nor rumors and hearsay.


I don't want to discuss Michael Jackson specifically, just celebrities in general. Martha Stuart, Errol Flynn, Norman Mailer, Sid Vicious, and James Brown, to name a few. Celebrities seem to go free more easily than the normal citizen does. Why does this continue?

California should change their motto too the "celebrity get out of jail free state" First OJ, then beretta , now moon walker. How sad is it when star status gets you special treatment? Are people really this stupid? Hey Jacko, save the world another trial when you claim another victim and just eat a bullet... or better yet organize a mass suicide and take your fan club with you.
