MJ dangles baby from balcony...

No responsibility! To be fair, 51% think he should face charges. And remember, that's only the respondents. Probably a lot of MJ worshipers calling in. I find the whole thing VERY disturbing. If you or I did that on video tape, DCFS would remove out kids as fast as it takes to get a Police car there. So maybe MJ gets to be above the law since he is the King of Pop and all. More like the King of Has-beens! His antics have received WAY MORE press than his music for over a decade now... He's SICK! Get this poor soul some help before he kills himself or someone else! And yes, that footage (pardon the pun) of those baby's feet kicking helplessly really upsets me too!

He was freakin nuts when he was rich. What he did to that child was incredibly stupid. The guy weighs like 80 lbs and I am sure is not very strong. He could have droped that child so easily. Not that I would agree with Arnold holding a kid 50 feet over the pavement either. What the hell was with the towell over his head? That kid is gonna be so screwed up by him. Really, the dude should not be around children. He probably got his own kids because he is broke. Can't afford to pay off parents of kids he molests anymore.
Heeeeeere kitty kitty kitty

I'm not defending what MJ did but he is obviously being judged based upon percieved past crimes as well as the current incident. I don't like this one bit. :freak:

It was a stupid thing for Michael to do but unless he presented a pattern of that behavior not something he should be condemned for. None of us know Michael, I'm starting to think maybe he's just not very bright, if you look at the things he's done lately, accusing his record company of being rascist, spending an exorbitant amount of money on his last album, and look what he did to his face. The guy just ain't that smart.

He's clearly ill. In fact, there's a rare mental illness that fits his symptoms: MJ suffers from Body Dysmorphic Disorder. Here's an excerpt from a description I pulled from a website: The individual’s obsessive concern most often is concerned with facial features, hair or odor. The disorder often begins in adolescence, becomes chronic and leads to a great deal of internal suffering. The person may fear ridicule in social situations, and may consult many dermatologists or plastic surgeons and undergo painful or risky procedures to try to change the perceived defect. The medical procedures rarely produce relief. Indeed they often lead to a worsening of symptoms. BDD may limit friendships. BDD tends to be chronic and can lead to social isolation, school dropout major depression, unnecessary surgery and even suicide.

[quote]Originally posted by eljefe: [b]He's clearly ill. [/b][/quote]Let me guess, you're a fully qualified doctor who has spent a lot of time with MJ in order to give a watertight diagnosis? This is exactly the kind of stupid fucking shit I'm talking about. :mad:

Um, I'd have to agree there. Psychiatric diagnoses are tenous at the best of times, and require an extensive amount of one-on-one time with the person being diagnosed. And thats aside from the whole "medicine invents diagnoses to perpetuate the ongoing medicalisation of society" argument, which is pretty convincing and found in any medical sociology text. :)

I'd agree that the diagnostic system isn't near perfect, but... oh the hell with it...

Rog, you've gotten your panties in a bunch! :D Or, should I say, WE have gotten your panties in a bunch. ;) Celebrities put themselves out there. It's our pre[b]rog[/b]ative to make comments about them, both positive and negative, true or false. Do you get so mad when someone claims that Britney Spears is the best singer in the world? Yes, we're all armchair psychologists, but it's just conversation. Knowhatimean? Do you really think that we're doing any serious damage to MJ that he hasn't already done to himself?

I thought that the mention of the disease was just fodder for discussion. I had never heard of this condition before. Who knows? Maybe it's a factor. Maybe not. Still interesting to consider. I can't find a more logical explanation for his acute eccentricities.

Example would be homosexuality, which was considered a mental disorder by psychiatrists until the early 80's I think it was.
