I think you will find that we are (Human Beings) somewhere in the region of 99% all the same.
See its blinkered views from what the press says that ironically makes you the same as alot of other numpties, this was always a case of its in the news and on the Suns front page so it must be true.
Although the same could be said for those poor people who were locked up for the Birmingham Bombings, I bet you wanted them to swing at the time.
I admittadly am a MJ Fan and had tickets to go next month so what i say is no doubt classed as some sort of Bias,
However from the age of 3 he was made to sing and dance by his unrelenting father (the same as his other siblings) who then pushed them for bigger things.
By the age of eight he was singing and dancing to sell out concerts over the world and was prbably the most famous face on the planet.
His childhood consisted of no childhood at all.
For god sake the song Ben is about a bloody rat who he fed in the middle of every night because ther was no one or anything else in his life.
He tried to rebuild his childhood and was looked apon as a peadophile although the accusers son later stood in court (when he was found NOT GUILTY) and said nothing ever happened and as a child he said what his parents told him to.
Other Iconic figueres such as Macolly Kulkin were also around him alot as a child and defended the man venomously.
The man has three of his own children who lived with him and no one with any sort of power in these matters deemed him unsafe to look after or be around them.
This is not a MJ problem it is a society problem, Its just like when my nephew at the age of 4/5 would get in the bath with me when i was looking after him. That had to stop when someone pointed out that they didnt think it was right. I had never thought anything of it as that is not how i think but they did!!
