Jacko compares himself to M.L. King, N. Mandela, & the Berlin Wall
Edited on Tue Jun-14-05 05:17 PM by mopaul

Martin Luther King is born, The Berlin Wall falls, Nelson Mandela is freed, and finally, June 13, 2005, Remember this date for it is a part of HIStory

from michael jackson's website today, when you open it up, you see the word 'innocent' and 'victory' with the two fingered sign.

so he now compares himself to the above icons. my my.

2. Yeah so..the American press equated him to Osama, Saddam and
every other scary creature for months. I think he is due his one day of gloating.

I think he should have broken into a round of PYT on the courthouse steps.

6. Agreed. I think he's allowed
to think of himself as whatever he likes. I think we're still free to "think" as we like. Hell, on a good day, I think I'm queen of my palace, just like Queen Elizabeth thinks she's queen of her palace, call me weird.

12. And I am allowed to think he is a pervert.
In fact, I am allowed to think he is a pervert, a serial child molester, a total whack-job who beat the rap because of his fame and fortune. Which I do.

Did you SEE the jurors just now on Abrams? Freakin' idiots. One juror was apparently convinced that Jackson was innocent because of the defense witnesses who said "he didn't molest ME." This juror couldn't even string a coherent sentence together.

10. Thanks for the balance, NSMA.
This guy was targeted by con artists. That was what a nearly all-white jury found.

I don't know what is the matter with some people here. We don't convict people for crimes they were not charged with.

I don't even like Michael Jackson's music, but Americans should be very wary of prosecutors like Tom Sneddon and Ken Starr who go out of their way to target people and use any means, including known criminals, to help them.

13. What is so humorous is that everyone is outraged by MJ's FAIR TRIAL
while rueing Gitmo. Unfuckingreal.

3. Well, he's right. With as much attention as this has received
I'd say that this date will be historic.

Shouldn't be the case, but it seems true.

21. Over Niagara Falls in a barrel. Just like he's done so many others.
I believe in the Golden Rule. His behaviors are the model for ours.

7. The last time I looked, I didn't notice Jacko ordering an illegal....
...invasion and occupation of another sovereign nation.

I guess on the sliding scale of those with Messianic impulses like Herr Busch, Jacko is pretty darn harmless.

Edited on Tue Jun-14-05 05:31 PM by ConfuZed
These same people will defend Laura Bush,Martha Stewart, Paula Poundstone and convicted child molesters who want to move in residential areas.

16. Lol, well even narcissistic megalomaniacs deserve
fair trials. Compared to the hyperbole flung on him by the likes of Nancy Grace et al, let him gloat.

18. I'm pretty appalled by the ridiculous comparisons, myself
Yet I ran this same topic through the lounge and some think it's okay 'cause he got off and should be able to gloat. I had no interest in his (should that be "His"?) trial, or any of His other tribulations and was pretty much just relieved to have this attention-sucking media circus out of the way. But His comparing an acquittal to one of the most important events of the Twentieth Century, the fall of communism, as well as dragging Mandela's horrific ordeal into this asinine mess that He bought upon Himself is megalomania of the most vulgar kind.
