Michael Jackson

We've heard the jokes and are pretty much tired of all the media attention. We all agree that Michael Jackson is a great musical talent. We all think that he is an oddity at best. Michael Jackson doesn't FEEL that he has harmed these boys. People who manipulate and use children in this manner rarely FEEL that they are doing any harm. It is a carefully orchestrated manipulation which the parents don't often see and the children never understand. The two people I know who were used in this manner when they were children were haunted by their experiences their entire lives. People who manipulate and use these children are not the stereo-typical man in the trench coat with a handful of candy, lurking in an alley. They are totally consumed with their obsession, are masters of manipulation, and usually put themselves in positions where they are able to act on their compulsions. We don't completely know the whys of their behavior, but it CANNOT be allowed to happen. I have personally seen the severe damage it creates. If it walks like a duck and it quacks like a duck.......it probably is a duck.
