Did you not just answer your question about their “stance”? “Self-serving and opportunistic”? Now again, I don’t know the truth and certainly can’t know their actual motivations, but I can take a decent stab at guessing them.
Is this what you think about all of those grown people who are accusing priests of sexually abusing them when they were children?
What would you call “concrete evidence”?
If they were women and it was some other dead pop star, would you dismiss them so easily?
For God’s sake, I once had a crush on Bob Crane. But I don’t doggedly insist that he was never involved with sleazy homemade porn.
You can’t imagine that they were scared kids? Who couldn’t even trust their parents because they enabled their molester? It would take a very long time and a lot of therapy to come to terms with all that had happened to them.
Withdrawn. Rephrase: in the face of little to no evidence of molestation.
I would like to think I bring my same powers of reasoning to an issue no matter the gender of the accusers. And just for the record, I want to make it clear that I am not dismissing them, as I have not seen the movie.
As I stated, I’m pretty convinced that Jackson is guilty, so I’m not going to start trying to defend him.
One of the men is now 19 years old, so I’ll conceed that he may not have had a lot of time to process what had/might have happened to him. The other guy is 38. He’s had time.
What are the reason(s) you believe he is guilty?
It’s certainly plausible that a 38-year-old still has issues. There are plenty of people who have trouble dealing with sexual molestation their entire lives. It’s not just a matter of getting some therapy to get over it. That kind of abuse and betrayal scars a kid and they have to learn to live with it. It’s always there.
Look, the only thing we can be certain of that he molested was his nose. One plastic surgery? GTFOH!!
If he lies about his nose, then he would have lied about, ahem, “bigger” things.
Please text me a picture of yourself so I can be sure to tell my lawyer to reject you for my jury, should I ever have to sit before one.
The official trailer of Leaving Neverland was released yesterday, and it will be aired on HBO in March.
‘There are none so blind as those who will not see.’
You are invested in defending Jackson, aren’t you? The years of therapy these young men have gone through. The intimidation by MJs legal team and PIs. The evidence given by the staff at the time. If you can’t find any evidence its because you don’t want to find any evidence.
I’m not “invested” in anything and don’t care if he is innocent or guilty. I just refuse to believe he is guilty without proof. You, nor anyone else, has offered it.
There are also none so gullible as those who will believe something without proof.
Thus, I will watch it and see if it offers any.
It still bothers me that Jackson’s trial resulted in Not Guilty.
So many victims and Jackson only got charged for Gavin Arvizo.
So I guess you are finally the one who has evidence of MJ’s crimes, you know, for all those other victims. Please post whatever you think is the most damning if you wish. I’d love to see it.
