Re: Arrest Warrant Issued For Michael Jackson
No worries McGizmo,
I was just clarifying what my comments were and were not. I also would not try to tell folks not to post jokes about it. People who know me, know I am the most politically incorrect person on the planet and will speak my mind to anyone without hesitation. Trust me, my in-laws have learned this the hardest of ways. I have also told more than my fair share of tatesless, insensitive, politically incorrect and just plain dumb jokes in my life time. It's not up to me to pass any kind of judgement on anyone or try and dictate what anyone should do or say. My opinions are mine and mine alone.
I only wanted folks to think about what it is they are joking about. The words "molestation", "sexual assualt" all basically mean rape .... in this particular context it would mean the possible rape of a child/children. Again, I'm not saying Michael Jackson did anything. I strongly believe you are innocent until proven guilty.
In any case, anyone who has been touched by something like this whether as a victim, relative or friend would not neccesarily think it was something to joke about.
Hey, I'm just sayin'. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif
