Its not the sick, dirty minds of society that have caused these problems IMO - its the neverending cycle of s*x offenders caught, "punished" and then released to offend again. Basically, you can't trust anyone these days.

And I don't see why he has to stop allowing terminally ill children to visit - it just needs to be organised officially with proper procedures so he protects himself from such allegations in the future.

Yes I agree about those being caught and then released to offend again - that's why I said in the other post that help should be given - to stop the cycle.

I still think though that people - some people - read stuff into every situation - I agree you have to on your guard, but I think its sad to think you can't trust anyone.  i have let my eldest son go away with the cubs and with his local YMCA group - I wasn't 100% comfortable with it, but kept it in mind that for every bad person there must be quite a few good ones and my children must have a life.  (Obviously every parent worries about this).

I still think it is the sick minds of people in society though - just a few hours ago, some people were almost ready to lynch MJ, have his children siezed, etc (all based on hearsay) - and it turns out (if we have any faith in the law) that basically he has some mental problems which cause him to view the world differently to most adults (and behave inappropriately at times).

There must have been alot of doubt for the jurors to take so long in reaching a verdict. I understand that they had to all agree, obviously they didn't.
