He was cleared of charges. The police etc know a lot more than us GFY members, and since he was cleared, the matter is ended. Why do forum members feel they know the full story based on The Smoking Gun etc :D lol

And fmltube ... once again, you're using teh interwebz to base your 'facts' on Michael Jackson ... when in fact, what you think you know, you don't :)

if he was cleared, yes, he should be allowed.

it's not like the guy will jump on the kids and bang them right there.

"The issue is, it sends the wrong message to American families."

I bet most American families did not even know. So now they know, and that child care group can be credited for sending the wrong message...

Was waiting for someone to say it.

He definitely did have research-like materials and writings on hand to back up that claim, but I suppose it's a case of if you believe that's all he was doing or if you believe he was doing that AND indulging his fantasies and urges and possibly using the research angle as his cover.


Will anyone here admit they will boycott the superbowl if The Who plays?

depends on if he's writing a book and need research.



so, to anyone saying it's ok. would you leave your child alone with him?

I don't think anyone is saying that it's ok, the question is over him playing halftime at the superbowl, not opening a daycare center. :2 cents:

Don't get me wrong- I think he's a chomo, or at a minimum someone who gets off on the fantasy of CP.

let him play! At least we wont get little wayne or some other untalented rapper to fuck the show up

As I said, I think it would have been a bigger surprise had no one said a thing and The Who just go ahead and play without a peep or note of complaint. These complaints come as no surprise whatsoever.

People want to stand up for what's right on issues such as this, while the rest of us who weren't sent the memo just have to judge for ourselves as to what's acceptable and what isn't, hopefully after gathering all the facts.

In other words I think not saying anything at all might have sent an even worse message. :2 cents:

Their point has been made. Whether it's effective or not, whether they get to play or not, is really immaterial. They're getting heard, more and more people are aware. That's probably all these groups can hope for seeing as he wasn't convicted. Their argument would carry a lot more weight had he been found guilty and sentenced.

Long Live Rock - Long Live The Who....

Research? What a fucking joke. Although, I really don't care if the guy likes to jerk off to child porn or not. Whatever floats your boat. Let the band play the superbowl for fucking christ's sake.

:eek7:eek7:eek7

Well that child advocacy group isn't letting this go. Simply putting the word out last month and launching a media campaign wasn't enough, now they're actually leafletting the Miami area and putting out a sex offender advisory warning over this....

Public safety? I'm not sure I see Pete running amok through the streets of the neighborhood surrounding the stadium looking for kids to prey on but that's just me, I want to see the best in people.

Any further thoughts on this?
