Sean O’Kane, a ‘race relations worker’ who lives in Liverpool, who has been in California for the MJ trial, to lend his support to Michael
A couple of choice quotes –
“I came here because I couldn’t believe the injustice of it all.”
er, right… I wonder if he also went to Iraq to be part of the human shield, or has his flight to darfur booked…
“People have been talking about the similarities between Michael Jackson and Martin Luther King and Nelson Mandela.
I think that’s fair.
Martin Luther King got his message across through his speeches. Michael gets his message across through his music.”
Do I need to comment on that one?
“He’s a martyr – but the thing to remember is he’s still alive.”
So he died for his cause, but is still alive – nice logic there, loser-boy.
I’m still not convinced that all the muppets hanging around outside the courthouse weren’t paid (though it’s not like MJ has got any money left…!) – after seeing the way the Labour Party used fake crowds during the campaign in the run-up to the last election (more complete losers!), I’m willing to believe that anyone could hire themselves some flunkies to hang around and make it look like they have public support.
Is anyone so daft as to turn out to show their support for a singer they don’t know who may well be guilty? That’s really odd behaviour.
And to fly across the world, and then compare MJ to Mandela and MLK? Me thinks Mr O’Kane needs help. Fast.
