    RE:Comment #13 "For years we have heard that his career is over..." You mean to tell me it's not? His last single wasnt
    exactly number one with a bullet.I don't
    recall it burning up the charts.

    It was also a collabaration with R.Kelly
    I mean c'mon now. That,in and of itself is mighty bizarre I'd say.It wasn't all
    that bad of a song though strangely enough..

    I think many people fantasize about MJ career being over as much as they fatasized about him being convicted of child molestation.
    We have heard over and over since his innocence has been declared that his carreor HAD TO be over as if it were some kind of consolation prize for his detractors. I just have one thing to say to those people: Dream On. MJ is here to stay, like it or not !

    Settle down, Nick. When MJ got acquitted, it meant he didn't have to go to jail. That's it. It most certainly didn't mean we have to somehow now believe that he's really innocent, or that he's just normal and misunderstood.

    We can all have our opinions. In this case, as it should be, the opinions of 12 people are the only ones that matter for his freedom.

    Yes you are quite right. The only people who got the oppurtinity to listen to the evidence for 4 months came to the conclusion that he was innocent of the crimes for which he was charged. That is indeed the only thing that matters.

    Eric, I'm curious...when you were at the MJJsource site, did you happen to take a peek at his accomplishments and discography?
    He is the world's most accomplished entertainer of all time. And he has singlehandedly done more for children than any celebrity that I know of.

    If you can't see, or imagine, for one second that many of these people may have been after his millions, then I really don't know what to say. To quote DrPat...You go ahead, blinders firmly in place.

    Greed is the main motivator for nearly every crime ever committed. The crime was done to Michael, NOT the other way around. Maybe the parents should have been prosecuted for their libelous and neglectful behavior.

    If you must entertain the possibility that the molestation had happened - those parents had their own greed to blame.

    When MJ got acquitted, it meant he didn't have to go to jail. That's it.

    No. It meant "NOT GUILTY": a verdict rendered by a jury acquitting a criminal defendant upon finding that the prosecution has not proven the defendant's guilt beyond a reasonable doubt

    3. a. Not dangerous or harmful; innocuous: an innocent prank. b. Candid; straightforward: a child's innocent stare.

    4. a. Not experienced or worldly; naive.
    b. Betraying or suggesting no deception or guile; artless.

    5. a. Not exposed to or familiar with something specified; ignorant: American tourists wholly innocent of French. b. Unaware: She remained innocent of the complications she had caused.

    6. Lacking, deprived, or devoid of something: a novel innocent of literary merit.

    n.

    1. A person, especially a child, who is free of evil or sin.
    2. A simple, guileless, inexperienced, or unsophisticated person.
    3. A very young child.

    Indeed.
