I enjoy sleeping with my dog, so does that mean... I'm 'into' bestiality
That's precisely what they're saying. They are also saying that if they were to find themselves in a bed with a young boy that they would not be able to control themselves and would molest the child, because, if you're in bed with a child, that is the only possible conclusion that can be reached. There are no circumstances whatsoever,
ever, ever, in which an adult and a child could be in the same bed and the adult not be a child molester. Can't happen. Isn't possible. No way, no how.
It it weird that Michael Jackson invited little boys into his bed (and, I might add with the thorough knowledge of the boy's parents)? Absolutely. It's not a normal thing to do, at least in the context of our normalcy. Then again, most of us aren't child-like in almost every way. He never had a childhood, and he spent his entire adult life trying to have one, and he never matured beyond it. If anything, when he was with kids he was the same as them, at least in his mind. Mental illness, genius, they often go hand in hand, because the mis-wiring that enables the genius is the same mis-wiring that causes other 'way out of the box' thinking in other aspects of one's life. But it depends on your frame of reference, and of course most of our frame of reference would put him squarely in the mental illness corner, because what he did was really, really odd, 'cause we're not 8 years old mentally and have no idea how he can think the way he did. But he was mentally a child in almost all aspects of his life. I guess that makes him a sexual predator, tho.
In any case, none of the criminal charges stuck. He was never proven guilty, and if you've ever been accused of doing something you didn't do, you'd understand how important that is. The civil cases had "money grab" written all over them.
So go back to your quiet bestiality. Don't try and deny it. We know what you do with that dog when you're alone.
BTW, Greg...
"There is a difference between the street singer (like dabluzman) and a professional groomed entertainer. The former is needed, they are the ones who actually struggle and take things seriously."
Man, ya gotta stop the Q-Tip when there's resistence. "A
ctually struggle and take things seriously," I actually laughed out loud at that. I know plenty of street musicians who struggle precisely
because they don't take things seriously. They don't know what it takes to be successful both musically and professionaly. And if they are content to be a street musician, they're not struggling... struggle over. In many ways a professional groomed musician struggles even harder, every day, to stay successful, and they most definitely take things seriously, as there are more things to take seriously. And as soon as you stop taking any of them seriously, you're toast, you don't last, you're here today and gone tomorrow. A street musician doesn't have that kind of pressure, seriously.
As for which one is needed and which isn't, that's purely a personal preference. A someone with a double major in music with a degree that I'm not going to get into here, and as someone who made a living as a musician for a while, I can tell you that a singer sings and a player plays, not because they are needed or not, but because they have to.
