Soundscape Studios. Posted November 20, 2002 Share Posted November 20, 2002 Have you heard this crazy story? Wacko Jacko apparently dangled his kid over a 4th story balcony while greeting fans in Berlin. He just keeps getting better and better , dosen't he? http://news.yahoo.com/fc?tmpl=fc&cid=34&in=entertainment&cat=michael_jackson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GZsound Posted November 20, 2002 Share Posted November 20, 2002 Actually it was a fifth floor balcony and although stupid, certainly wasn't any dummer than letting your kid ride in the car with no seat belt on.

whitefang Posted November 20, 2002 Share Posted November 20, 2002 SEATBELT? WHAAAA? I'll ride my kid in a car without the SEATBELT before I dangle him out a four(OR five) story building by one hand ANYTIME! What the FUCK are you thinking?!? You work in a factory that MAKES those things or something? Whitefang I started out with NOTHING...and I still have most of it left! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrianT Posted November 20, 2002 Share Posted November 20, 2002 I predict a visit from child welfare to MJ. That was not cool at all. Endangerment? I'd say yes. I really don't think he's all there at this point. Very sad in general. Sometimes, watching the potential effects of money and fame in the music business is sobering.

surfmonkey Posted November 20, 2002 Share Posted November 20, 2002 That was definitely bizarre. I don't know which is worse though, the incident or the fact that MJ has three children now? I have no homepage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rog Posted November 20, 2002 Share Posted November 20, 2002 I don't think it was nearly as bad as some of the hysterical reaction in the media would suggest but I do wonder just what goes through that man's mind sometimes :freak: "That's what the internet is for.

Tedster Posted November 20, 2002 Share Posted November 20, 2002 I commented on this on another thread yesterday. I think it's time Jacko took a nice vacation at Happy Valley...in the room with the nice cushioned wallpaper. Perhaps he should have a conversation with Mr. Clapton about kids and balconies.

deanmass Posted November 20, 2002 Share Posted November 20, 2002 I am kind of thinking someone ought to hang ol' MJ out of the same balcony for a bit...I'd be willing to bet that MJ would cry sooner, harder and longer than ihs baby did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan South Posted November 20, 2002 Share Posted November 20, 2002 Hey, Sweetie! Ready to watch the video of Daddy holding you out the window? YES! Daddy was having FUN with you, WASN'T he? :rolleyes: Regarding seat belt usage, a lot more kids die in cars than from falls from tall buildings. Buckle the kids up. If you don't, YOU deserve a visit from child welfare (and maybe the GERMAN POLICE). The Black Knight always triumphs! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Curve Dominant Posted November 21, 2002 Share Posted November 21, 2002 MJ is mentally ill and he needs help, and he's not getting it. The longer he goes without getting help, the worse he'll get. It's only a matter of time before he does something that gets him locked up, and that's gonna be a very ugly scenario. Those three kids are living in jeopardy in his custody.

whitefang Posted November 21, 2002 Share Posted November 21, 2002 It's OK! It's OK! All is forgiven! Jacko APOLOGIZED! No harm done. Just forget it ever happened. !!??!?! Don't you just hate it when celebrities don't bother apologizing for any boneheaded stunt until the legal staff or PR people recommend they do? And then feel that "It's OK now?" Well, Jacko, it's NOT "OK"! It STILL needs to be addressed. And what REALLY pisses me off, is that in a local news show poll, 49% of the callers thought that Jackson SHOULDN'T face legal charges for the stunt! WHAT is WRONG with some people? By the way, I DON'T buckle my kids into the car. Hell, they're 30 and 27 years OLD, for Christ's sake! Let 'em buckle their asses into their OWN cars!
