At 1:30 PM PST we will know if Michael Jackson is guilty or not guilty.

No, we will merely know whether the jury convicts him or not.

Bringing me up again?
You seem to be quite the obsessed fan.
Poor deluded boy.
Shall I send you an autographed photo?

There's an important legal difference between "innocent" and
"not-guilty".
It isn't a crime to be rich, eccentric, or a celebrity or to lead a
controversial lifestyle. In the United States, if the government
chooses to accuse you of a crime it has the obligation to convince a
judge and/or jury that you are guilty beyond any "reasonable" doubt.

The difference between "innocent" and "not guilty" is a legal
difference, not a moral difference, but that's why our system says that
the accused will be tried in a courtroom and not in a church.

Personally, I'm not absolutely sure that MJ is really innocent......but
I'm ready to accept the well-considered opinion of twelve people (who
have spent the last several weeks hearing and evaluating the evidence
on a full time basis) that the prosecution failed to present a case
that transcended "reasonable doubt". They were there, they heard the
evidence, and they are surely better prepared to render an informed
opinion than the rest of us with only well-filtered, carefully spun
snippets from the news.

Being weird doesn't make him guilty, it only makes him weird. The
outcome is sort of like OJ- even if he did it, (and a high percentage
of people will continue to suspect that he did) the prosecution failed
to present enough compelling evidence to convice the jury. "Not guilty"
(but maybe "not innocent" as well).

Let's hope Chuck does not turn this into a racist thread like he did the
Mike Tyson joke thread. ;-)

What happened to your vow not to stir **** here? It's all you've done
that last week or so. Seems just like the other time you went off the
deep end and posted lie after lie about me.


BTW: I did not *stir* any sh*t here Kevin. I responded to utterly
ridiculous charges made against me to a joke I made, as well as some name
calling scattered in between. It generally came from 2 people here,
although you have made a good case of being person #3 doing so.

When was the last boating related post you made Kevin? You first post at 8
a.m. when you get to work and stop posting at 5 p.m. when you leave. 99.9%
posts of yours during that time are OT and inflammatory.

Go look in the mirror Kevin.

Too bad you've missed the whole point! *I* never made such a vow to not
post off topic, to quit being inflammatory, etc. YOU DID! Now, see the
thread about Clams, I'll prove to you and your band of idiots that I am
in fact, NOT Kevin Noble. Will you then be a man and apologize for
calling me him all this time?

I posted a fact Kevin.


I think Kevin is getting ****ed 'cause not even Harry is answering his posts.

John, you didn't answer my question. Will you be a man and apologize
when I prove I'm not Kevin?

This gang of clowns don't care about facts or the truth. They just
latch onto whatever they think will get your goat.
You could bring 'Mother Theresa' back as a witness and they would heckle
her.

Don't discourage him, Don.

I head a great Michael Jackson joke today, but I'm not going to tell
it.

Too many sensitive eyeballs.

I've got a good Michael Jackson joke that will horrify the PC crowd.

Q: Do you why Michael Jackson held his baby out over the rail on the
high balcony?

A: Michael just got done reading the Wizard of Oz and thought all
monkeys could fly.

Politically correct has nothing to do with anything here. Oh, hell, by
your **** above, you've proven yourself too much of an idiot to
understand, so good day.
