Lets Follow the Michael Jackson Circus Thread

stubeeef · 07:08 AM

Well this wacky quote got me laughing and thinking others here will have some "good" stuff from this sideshow.

Quote:

HOLLYWOOD (Reuters) - They really said it -- notable quotes from the news:

"They did this to Malcolm X and Martin Luther King. They're trying to do this to Michael. This is the way they bring him down. They don't want him to be powerful."

--SUSIE MUMPFIELD, 23, telling The Washington Post why she stands vigil outside the courthouse where MICHAEL JACKSON is being tried for child abuse.

edit: do not let this thread go political with your comments please.

hmm... keeping anything from going political around here can be tough

If he really did abuse children he should be put away. They have to prove it though - it's not a crime to be weird.

Sounds like the mom making the accusation is as wierd as the accused.

Can we call this the Wacko Jacko thread?

I don't know whether Mike is guilty or not, I am not familiar with the case and that is for the courts to decide.

I do remember this quote (paraphrased) from him, at the beginning of all this - When asked why he was so f***ed up as to sleep with little boys, he turned around and said " I just happen to like to sleep in the same bed as these boys, it is you who insist on making it seem like something f***ked up is going on - shame on you."

Pretty good answer, if you ask me...
