While I lack the info to make a considered decision about MJ's guilt, it strikes me that refusal to amend very questionable and inappropriate behavior WRT children when under suspicion does not convey an impression of innocence. A normal innocent person would realize how bad things look from the outside and change behavior accordingly.
What I can't tell for sure is if MJ's stubborn refusal to alter his behavior is due to the characteristic delusions of specialness and entitlement that I've read about concerning pedophillia, or if it's just due to him being bugfuck crazy in a more general sense (something for which there has been overabundant evidence over the course of years).
Oh my. Our local "groundhog" is a nutria.
Heh, and 6 more weeks of winter isn't even an option. [link]
I'm a little shocked at the Canadian killer groundhog. But I love the llama.
Competing groundhogs: "Staten Island Chuck is the most famous and the most accurate in the nation. He's been right 21 out of 24 years. So there."
Huh. He was on The Today Show this morning and they said that he's only 10 years old. Maybe they're including the current Chuck's predecessor in that 24 years.
Ok, when I suggested the groundhog be replaced, I wasn't suspecting that people might got NUTS. Just that they get a little less timid groundhog.
A llama?
Mr. Prozac?
I'm sure that there is a groundhog in Illinois who didn't see his shadow this morning. I think I'm goign to go with that anonymous woodchuck rather than Mr. Celebrity Puxatawny Phil Woodchuck.
No. It only means at least some parents/guardians are willing to let their kids spend time with him at Neverland. Anything else is reading into their motivation, and I don't think anyone posting here has that much insight into these individuals' mindset.
I disagree. I think its a reasonable assumption that the vast, vast, VAST majority of parents would not let their children do something unsafe. If it were a few nasty old parent-pimps that would be one thing, but this is hundreds of people.
I just need to point out that in the northern US, winter is NEVER OVER IN EARLY FEBRUARY.
Honestly.
I think its a reasonable assumption that the vast, vast, VAST majority of parents would not let their children do something unsafe.
You are less cynical than I am. So our definitions of reasonable differ.
I think it's a snap to find hundreds of children whose parents a) aren't paying attention b) don't care c) are wrong or d) can be distracted. You have a more cuddly view of human nature.
BUT IT SHOULD BE DAMNIT.
In the corner with sarameg.
