The love of god, will everybody give it up with the Michael Jackson talk? If you’ve been living under a rock, Michael Jackson was acquitted of all charges against him and is a free man. People are already ‘upset’ at the verdict and think the man should have bitten at it and I don’t understand why. There were 12 adults who didn’t think so and that’s what mattered. There’s people who know absolutely NOTHING about the Michael Jackson trial feel the need to convict him.

I’ve seen this happen with the O.J. Simpson trial and it’s unfortunate that until today, A LOT of people feel “O.J. did it.” Well guess what … nobody gives a fuck what you feel; he DIDN’T do it (and I’m quoting). It’s also bothersome to hear the ‘theories’ of why he got off. He was Black, He was Rich, and He was Famous; Boo Hoo – Go and suck a rock.

If you fail to see that your “opinion” that you throw around with the weight of ‘freedom of speech’ violates his (I’m arguing ‘more fundamental’) right to a fair trial than I think we have a problem. Should there perhaps be a hierarchy of rights? Should one right (that means the difference between someone going to jail for life, or in other cases sentenced to death) trump another right? I don’t know.

I was initially going to write this without voicing my own personal opinion for fear of my pot calling your kettle black. But it’s my blog and I can do whatever I want. No? However anything I say will indeed contradict what I have already written. So I ain’t saying shit. Just let it go. And … here we go (for all time’s sake):

You fussed at O.J. and “This time around” you’re crying foul again. “Black or White”, “In the Closet” or not, “Bad” as you think the verdict was, you can “Scream” about it as much as you like, you can write a “Thriller”, or express your desire to “Wanna Be Startin’ Somthin” but it will never change and I didn’t make the rules up so “Why You Wanna Trip On Me?” “Remember the Time” when things were a lot less complicated? I don’t. “Everybody is Somebody’s Fool” and someone had to lose. “Maybe tomorrow” you will get your way but until then “Cry” in solitude or remain "Speechless”

It’s “Human Nature” to want to express what you feel, but “I can’t help it” and feel the need to call you out. “Another part of me” wants to let you slide … but I’m humble enough to realize that it’s not my job to “heal the world,” “Smile” and have us all “Come Together” in agreement. Take solace in the fact that “You Are Not Alone” and quite a few others feel that he is indeed a “Smooth Criminal” and would ask the jurors “Is It Scary?” to have a twice-accused child molester free to walk. Either way, “It Doesn’t Matter,” stop being a “Tabloid Junkie” for “One Day in Your Life.” Disgusted is a good description for “The Way You Make Me Feel.” Take a long look at the “Man In the Mirror", and for “One Day in Your Life” ask yourself “Who Am I to Judge?”

If all else fails, Just MOTHERFUCKIN’ “Beat It.”

Note: I tried all weekend to go and see “CRASH.” I was finally able to go and see it last night and it was a very good decision. Everyone should see this movie, it was just incredible, deep and very well executed. I guess in some small way, this movie has indeed changed my life.
