This Is Extortion’
King of Pop's Brother Says Jackson Family Is ‘Ready for War’
Nov. 21 — Jermaine Jackson says the child molestation charges his brother Michael faces are part of a racially motivated vendetta and an "extortion" plot, and pledged the entire Jackson family would rally around the beleaguered King of Pop.
and
Jermaine also said he feels the pursuit of his brother is racially motivated. "They're a bunch of racist rednecks out there who don't care about people," he told Walters.
Why is it, almost everytime a black person is arrested, the first thing they yell is that the arrest is racially motivated?
Is it just another attempt to escape blame? An attempt to make the law enforcement official look like the bad guy. I have no doubt that there are plenty of cases where police have allowed bias into their actions.
BUT,
Micheal Jackson is being accused by a child who stayed at his house. The police didn't go begging him to claim abuse so they could have a good old fashioned KKK type lynching I am sure, and lets not forget, this is the same Micheal Jackson who paid in excess of 10 million dollars to silence the claim of molestation back in the early 90s. Why did he pay that if he was such a good hearted innocent, who of course wouldnt touch a child inappropriately?
Are these people who are so quick to run to the press and yell racism considering this? Do they consider he is one of the most weird individual you will likely ever encounter?
Does anyone actually believe the head of the Police department and the Prosecuting Attorney have nothing better to do than pursue some kind of evil vendetta against Jacko? Are they really going to risk thier careers to extract some evil justice? Get real.
One thing good old "keep giving me money Micheal" Jermaine might consider, being a "racist redneck" might be disgusting, but being a "pedophile" is worse, it's disgusting, illegal and destroys young childrens lives.
If he is guilty, it would hard to imagine a penalty strong enough. If he is innocent and being harmed publicly by a family out for money, they should be severly punished.
One thing is for sure, there are no winners in this one.

I think its human nature to make ANY excuse to avoid blame. I'd love to go on but then I will be accused of being "racist" because I am not black. Lord knows that only black people can say anything bad at all about black people.
If you do say anything at all that is in fact negative about a black person you will then be stereotyped as a "racist redneck" by the exact same people who say stereotypes are bad.
there is no outcry from people over this because of the point made above. If you do complain about it you will then be branded as the above mentioned sterotype and you will have thrown in your face about 300 years of oppression and all that.
this is all IMO of course...let the branding begin

Maybe some people believe in facts, not obscuration.
Why, when a young man who confessed to beating and raping the Central Park jogger a few years ago, why did he yell out "RACISM" in court when he was found guilty?
He confessed for Gods sakes, it was recorded on video tape. How was that racism?
The Police and Prosecuting Attorney in the Micheal Jackson case are doing no less than they are required based on the complaint brought to them. How in the heck is that racism????
Why is it okay for Jermaine to call these people "redneck racists?

It's easy to forget that Jackson was once a poor repressed African-American... now, he's just a FREAK.

I didn't say he is guilty, and in fact am open to the possibility that the whole thing may be a fabrication to extort money, or set up a huge lawsuit.
I just get frustrated when someone immediately yells "race".

White guys dont post something like this when a black guy is arrested - white guys post something like this when the black guy says something like this:

Because juries and TV news audiences are full of stupid whites who feel guilty for things 150 years ago, and full of racist blacks who want to stick it to "the man". Defense lawyers know suckers when they see them.

Innocence in the eyes of the law does not necessarily equal innocence. He was guilty as soon as he committed the crime if he in fact did. If he was innocent 10 years ago of the same crime why did he pay millions to his accuser for his silence? Doesn't sound like the actions of an innocent man to me and since I'm neither the judge nor juror I can in fact decide for myself whether he is guilty or innocent.

Strange looking fellow, he should consider plastic surgery.

Well I thought it was perfectly worded yet intelligently subtle sarcasm.......
Yet Dago seems to take it seriously......
Guess I was right. :)
-
Ahhhh, sarcasm, I get it now. ;)
We stop practicing that in our house because my wife never got it, and she swings a mean frying pan. :)
BTW, this thread didn't start about whether he is guilty or innocent, just the quick cry of racism.

Yeah, but what race is MJ?
He looks like an ugly white girl.

Somebody put a photo of Vorticon next to him.
-
I'd hate to see him without his makeup, or after a few years in the big house.
-
Didn't Mikey switch races several years ago? I thought it was possible with hormone therapy....
-
Is he still considered to be black?

m jackson cannot stand trial because he is insane.

I will reserve the right to judge anyone on the basis of the facts as I see them. The man is quilty as sin, has full knowledge of the wrongness of his actions and is 100% unrepenant.
You don't like it or think that that is racist, you have issues of your own.
-
I hope money don't influence this case like it has those in the past.
Also I hope the courts don't cave in like they did in the OJ trail.
But rest assured that If the African Americans think there getting a raw deal here they will burn down the town and riot LOL.
You do remember Rodney King don't you?
-
So being a racist Redneck is bad, but being a racist Gangbanger is OK?
-
Given how the famous are often the targets of frivolous, vindictive, or greed-driven lawsuits I was prepared to give Michael the benefit of the doubt. Or at least a modicum of sympathy. After all, the mother of the boy in question supposedly visited Jackson's home along with her husband and with child in tow. She said she was uncomfortable around Michael.
If I were uncomfortable about a stranger being around MY young child I for dang sure wouldn't allow that child to spend the night alone with said stranger. One of the country matron's whose presence graced my childhood would have said that the woman had "...a bad case of the simples!" Amen to that.
Or, perhaps, she has a hidden agenda. $$$
At least, that's how I saw the situation in the beginning. However, the statement by Jermaine totally put me off. The cry of "Racism!" is a cheap ploy to obscure the seriousness of the charges. The Jackson family's decade's long popularity, among both blacks and whites, would seem to belie the cry of "redneck bigotry." If Michael sexually molested that child it's a serious matter. A VERY SERIOUS MATTER INDEED! It shouldn't be allowed to be obscured by that type of cynical smokescreen.
My advice to the Jackson family would be to hire the best lawyers that money can buy and force the prosecutors to prove their charges in front of an impartial jury. Take the high ground of innocent indignation...fight the accusations tooth and toenail. And as far as the racist hyperbole is concerned, they should SHUT THE H_ _ _ UP!

Was a few fights at the begginning of the school year that were believed to be racially motivated. which im sure they were.
two black people wouldn't from a lunch table under at over hang and litterally all the people on the football teams who have second lunch are in the fight.
Second one was bad. 3 Boys i think it was jump a black guy. beat him up in the parking lot at lunch. Black guy is almost dead and one of the 3 goes straight to jail.
My ideaa racism is being brought up these days because of the way we were growing up. no clue why micheal Jackson thing would be racist though.

Education is the key.

Yeah, Gangsta-Rap, and that type of education surely will bring about the lions sleeping with the lambs.

If I could run as fast as a black guy, I'd want to race people a lot too.

I just heard on the news that his nose is actually prosetic.

My 4 year old happened to be standing next to me when I clicked on this thread.
When he saw the picture he said "eeewwww Daddy...who is THAT?"
-
The father of the child who accused Mikie has just said he thinks the childs mothes encouraged him to make a false accusation. Futhermore its not the first time she's done it and the police new this. This is not about race it about revenge on the part of law enforcement who think he bought his way out of the previous charge. IMO there's gonna be more lawsuits but this time it won't be Mikie paying.
-
I guess it all depends on what you think of him as a man. The person who will say Kobe Bryant is not a rapist and is being extorted by a woman, are the first to say Jackson is a child molester before any trial. Interesting. We need Freud to dissect this one.

You do remember Rodney King don't you?
Yeah, I remember, and I thought the cops were way the heck outta line. They should have done prison time over that beating, they didn't bother trying to cuff him, just kept beating him.

That is why I am keeping an open mind to this case. Being rich makes you a target for greedy evil people. Like I said, if he did it, toss his butt in jail. If the accusations are false, throw the family in prison.
I will wait to see the facts as presented in court, and see if there really is any evidence.
But, I honestly don't think racism is playing a part in this issue.
And yeah, MJ is beyond freaking weird, but that really isn't against any law.

Rodney King was a criminal!
But he Is also a human being and did not deserve to be beaten by those stunninghunk cops.

I'm not sure if "they" do, but it's probably because of people like you.

That made sense.:rolleyes:

What I dont understand is all these 'racial activists' claiming that they raise high hell for the cause of equality....
yet all they really do is create an even bigger wedge. How do these people, most, if not all, of which are really 50 year + people, portray the discrimination issue to kids today?
Ive gone to college, ive visited high schools... young people and kids from all races are not being brought up in a racial enviroment..this is not the circa 1950's! Yet these old racist activists still live 'back then' and all they are doing with crap like this is re-igniting the racial tensions in the next generations.
-

Ouch, ya got me, your so freaking witty I can't hardly stand it.
Really put me in my place. Ya sure did, its all cause of me.
What a TARD.
If you paid attention, if you had a brain capable of something beyond directing you to pick your nose, you might come up with something better than that.
Guess what? Everyone is a racist. Its the degree you let it effect your thinking or your actions that matter. I just happen to think people should stand up and deal with the results of their actions, they should meet accusations or justice without trying to obscure or deflect on something like "race", or gender, or religion, etc..
Now, go read your Bazooka comics for some more witty inspirations.

didnt rodney king have 4 tazers in him and hopped up on pcp at the time he was beat down? I could be wrong i'm not sure so I'm actually asking a question here.
I think the cops went a little overboard...a LITTLE....but that's no reason to burn down a city
