Allie you said basically everything I wanted to hear.
I can't believe people saying "Oh these people want to hurt him, those bastards." People have such incredible tunnel vision when it comes to him, yes, but its usually his fans who won't believe an ill word against him. Hes a creative genuis, yay. It doesn't mean he can go around sleeping with kids and it should be ignored or silenced.
Noone in this thread has said "Michael is guilty let him fry!" Everyone has come in saying either a)they hope he isn't guilty or b) he isn't guilty.
People can ignore his private life all he wants but when serious allegations are made against a person it is the public's right to know ESPECIALLY when it concerns children.
Now let me ask you this people who think he isn't guilty and don't care if he is. Would you let YOUR kids spend the night with him unsupervised?
