Warner Todd Huston said,

So, CaptDMO, I am glad that you wouldn’t mind YOUR teenaged daughter visiting R. Kelly in his room because he “hasn’t been convicted”"

Like most parents would let their teenage daughter visit any man in his room. Great piece of logic there.

He said that R. Kelly is innocent, so why SHOULDN’T he mind if his daughter goes off with such a harmless “innocent” man?

“So, CaptDMO, I am glad that you wouldn’t mind YOUR teenaged daughter visiting R. Kelly in his room”

When did CaptDMO say that? Is there another thread on this here? How has he been careless with other’s children?

So, CaptDMO, I am glad that you wouldn’t mind YOUR teenaged daughter visiting R. Kelly in his room because he “hasn’t been convicted”. After all, not being convicted yet means complete innocence. Right O.J.? But, since you have no idea who R.Kelly is and what he has perpetrated or the evidence against him and why he has gotten off (big money, hint) I can easily say you are uninformed, careless with the safety of our children, and unconcerned about societal mores… end transmission!

“Though not convicted as of yet,…..

Even though R. Kelly is innocent until proven innocent, I remain shocked by the level of utter disregard to the charges previously brought against him. It is not a matter that he should be assumed guilty. It is the attitude of the people, particularly his female fans, who openly stated in the Sun-Times that either the girl tricked him or they really did not care whether he did it or not. That is the only instance in which I have seen a person that well known get a pass. Even Michael Jackson did not end up with a multi-platinum record following his allegations.

More than that, for Oprah to invite R. Kelly contradicts her positions on male sex offenders, female rape and the impact of those assaults. I guess she must be a fan.

Sorry, but since when has being accused of something meant that a man should be treated as being guilty? And how often are men accused of violence against women these days when it is totally made up? I’ve seen statistics that show the percentage of false rape charges at almost 50%. Have you considered that rich men are much more susceptible to these types of charges for extortion purposes? And how many false rape allegations aren’t tagged as false because the accuser is better than others at fabricating the story and convincing others of their veracity, even though they are totally lying. And how often are men’s names and faces plastered all over the media the moment they are accused of something as though they are guilty, whether guilty or not, while the purported victim remains anonymous?

As much as I don’t like Oprah, I commend her for not judging this guy based on allegations. It’s a shame that more of us, especially men, can’t see the logic in the phrase, “innocent until proven guilty”.

someone give the name of one single male in our society , black or white or any color, who could say and do the things oprah says and does. nope! can’t be done. who ever believes we live in a just world……….. is stoopit.

most men would condem other men of oprahs ilk. her evil far out ways any good works she does. it speaks loudly that women worship at her alter. if the women in your life speak highly of oprah, you my friend are being had like a sucker at the local carnival. stoopit, stoopit us.
