Why was Michael Jackson stigmatised so harshly?

Tibbers is so American he was American before America itself even Americaed.

Well if it's true that he abused children, and it's looking like it is, then that's horrible and I feel very sorry for the victims and their families. But I can't help but still feel bad for Michael for the unfortunate life he had since childhood. It's just depressing all around.

Completely agree.  In most cases most sexual predators start out as victims.  We so want people just to be the evil itself and then we can destroy it by destroying them.  But life isn't so simple.

You know, it IS possible that Michael is just a very very strange person with a bizarre fascination for children due to his upbringing... but that he isn't sexually attracted to them and never sexually abused them.

I'm not sure that's likely, but it IS possible. I see where Aractus is coming from.

Question though, did any of the kids actually accuse Michael of "grooming" them for sex with any of the items that were found?

I'm pretty sure their settlements were sufficiently generous to permit the best therapy possible.

[Edwardo Piet]

Possible but not likely.

Creationism is possible.

That list.... yeahhhhh.... it's all very distrurbingly sexualized. Creepy.

I put the uncensored version on (removed). I originally posted it here and Tiberius felt the need to delete it under the draconian rules on nudity. It seems to be a part of the American culture that for whatever fears and stigmatises nudity, even when it's used in totally non-sexualised ways as it is above in a physiology textbook.

I just find it hilarious how you always manage to slip your hatred of America into almost every post you make. Tiberius and the other staff aren't the dictators you make them out to be. Not everyone wants to see naked kids even if they are non-sexualised images.

I know, and like most americans I don't really need any outside help in hating plenty of my fellow americans.  And if he wants to hate on me he can kiss my ass.

Besides we shouldn't judge Tibbers for his American culture.

I wasn't suggesting we should judge Tiberius for anything.

Sorry if you got that impression.

Yes, just an innocent weirdo who keeps kids clothing hidden away with his bloody sheets...

Sorry about that.
