tabloid fodder, constantly under attack for having as many pretend marriages as facial re-construction operations. In February, Martin Bashir's documentary about Michael Jackson revealed that he openly admits to sleeping in the same bed as children... children that aren't his (but then again, do we really know if his own kids are really his?). According to speculation, the boy Jackson talked to and about in that interview is the same child whose family is currently pressing charges against the pop icon.
Let's take a look at a few facts. There are millions of people who are hardcore Michael Jackson fans who will be first to tell you he's innocent... but ask one of them what makes him innocent and they typically explode into hysterics, saying he's a good father and loves children. Well, the problem is that yes, he does love children, but too much and in all the wrong ways. He's been accused of this before, and Jackson was all too fast to pay a quick settlement rather than face a prison sentence. Every woman he is supposedly involved with leaves him within a month or two. And as far as treating children as golden as he and his millions of fans claim he does: His children are barred from social interaction, with covered up faces and wacky outfits, and not allowed to live a normal childhood. They are dressed just as freakishly as Jackson himself, and that, coupled with all of the other bizarre treatments they are forced to go through, will give them any number of sociopathical disorders. His fans claim Jackson does this to protect his children from being kidnapped... but did John Lennon cover up his kids? Or Paul McCartney, or Elvis Presley, or Robert Plant, or Mel Gibson? No, they didn't... and none of their children were kidnapped. In fact, the only celebrity kidnapping most minds can conjure is that of Charles Lindbergh, three- fourths of a century ago, and maybe the somewhat-hoaxish Sinatra kidnapping.
Convicting fact number two? Jackson himself acts like a child, and not in a humorous way like some stand up comedians, but as a man who suffers from psychiotrauma. He was barred from living a normal childhood, being famous since the age of five, and his career didn't flag until his late thirties... he's just now getting to live out the life he dreamed of living as a child, and his unhealthily- youthful mentallity probably effects his judgment in a million manners, including his ability to tell where the line lies when having children stay over at his ranch. What grown adult, no matter how much they love children, would sleep in the same bed as a child they didn't father or mother themselves? It makes me wonder if maybe his own children fall pray to Jackson's sexual attacks.
And let's not forget that Jackson openly admits to sharing a bed with children. Would you allow a grown adult to sleep in your child's bed? I sure wouldn't, and I doubt you would either. Innocence and admiration for youth can be displayed with toys... turning children into sex toys is far from being the same thing. It's incredibly hard to believe that a man who owns a monkey and plays in trees all day long is mentally stable enough to share a bed with a child, and besides that, why on earth would he want to? Michael Jackson has obviously misconstrued the word "love" in his own dimented mind.
The bottom line: anyone can see this man is a child molesting nutjob. We can only hope the members of the legal department in the county of Santa Barbara will forget that they own all of his records and prosecute him not as a star, but as a felon. He should not be given special treatment because he has Grammy awards in his den and suffers from some form of youth- induced mental trauma. You can be a fan of his music... that's fine, who can stop you. But to fight for Jackson's release so he can go molest more innocent children is uncanny and should be punishable by death. To take someone's life is one thing, but to allow them to live with disgust on their concious and memories of a freakish pop figure strapping on his glove to play doctor is flat- out wrong. To allow this injustice to go un-punished would allow numerous other young children to fall victim to this lunatic. And best- selling albums or not, celebrity should not buy you an instant ticket to freedom. |
