Don't Convict for being Weird
Its not against the law to be weird, strange, or just a fruitcake like wacko Jacko is. But, does that necessarily equate child molester or is he an easy target?
Its difficult to be sure of what anyone's motives maybe of making false allegations against celebrities, besides the obvious of financial gain and a while in the spot light.
I have no idea if Michael Jackson is a chaild molester. If so, I think he should be strung up and hung, drawn and quartered. But what if the guy is actually innocent of the charges he's facing in court?
Mud sticks, whoever the claims are made against. Someone accused of rape, even if acquitted, is always guilty in the eyes of some, and alot more if honest will say they are not really sure what they believe about the guy in question. A rapist is viewed a lot more tolerantly when his victim(s) are adults than child molesters. I think we all have an immediate gut reaction of revulsion at the thought of proved pedophiles. Whether they be a parent of the child or a complete stranger.
If Michael Jackson is acquitted on these charges, it will likely only be a matter of time before further new ones come to light. A celebrity with the status of Michael Jackson it can only have a snow ball affect. Especially since most of his fame today comes from his weirdness and strangeness. And mankind by enlarge has a propensity to wanting to knock the successful down. If they're rich and famous it makes them an even better target.
Now Michael Jackson may well be guilty of these charges, and if so, lets hang him out to dry. But lets not hang him, just because he's strange, as at some points, most of us would fail at being normal in someone elses eyes.
