[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Doesn't anyone understand that it's just a form of protest? Why does it matter whether royalty money either does or does not aid in abuse? That's not the point. It's just a statement that you don't agree with what he did and you are showing support to the victims. Just like sit-ins, or picket lines, or marches... these are simply symbolic acts, not actual steps to fix or avoid a problem. [/quote]

So, protest away, but understand not everyone has your exact feelings or conviction on the issue. I’d rather spend my mental space and energy protesting things that will make my life and the life of my daughter better, not protesting the estate of a dead man in order to line the pockets of his two already financially compensated victims, while taking money from his equally innocent children.

Neither Robson nor Safechuck received any settlement money. [/quote]

I haven’t  really seen anyone on here defending MJ. Some of you (I can’t tell if it’s one or a few) are taking this strangely personally.

For me, I don’t care enough to “protest” the estate of a dead man. I have bandwith for other things, but this isn’t one of them. [/quote]

You don't have bandwidth to NOT listen to Jackson music? You realize this involves not doing something, right? Is it really that much effort? [/quote]

Yeah. There’s a difference between going out and actively seeking out and paying for music, and not GAFF enough to pointedly turn off the radio if his music comes in, or deleting music I already own in my library. I also see no need to have a vinyl burning party in my driveway, which is also bad for the environment.

Are you always this bad with black, white, and grey? Or is everything in your life based on overdramatizing things and hyperbole? [/quote]
