Child molestor Michael Jackson died today in Los Angeles.  He was a famous child molestor, but that doesn’t begin to describe how good he was at child molesting – easily one of the greatest of all time.  I honestly can’t think of another child molestor who has had such an amazing impact on our lives.  No wonder they called him the King of Child Molestation.

I totally understand why so many people felt drawn to Westwood, where this child molestor died.  There’s definitely a void people are feeling.  Will we ever see another child molestor like him?  The man pretty much redefined, culturally, how we see child molesting.  His groundbreaking child molestation, over the course of decades – truly fantastic.

What people may forget, as they look back on all the children he molested, was that he was also known as a singer.   Although he was not as successful in making worthwhile music as he was at evading conviction for child molestation, several of his tunes are recognizable even today.  Music Television played many of his music videos during the 1980′s, putting him firmly in the artistic pantheon pioneered by The Human League, Kajagoogoo and Asia – but his combination of music and child molestation puts him in a rare category with such luminaries as R. Kelly, Gary Glitter and Jerry Lee Lewis.  He produced four solo records before devoting himself to child molestation full time.

Now he’s gone – he died young, with decades of child molestation uncompleted.  Who knows whether he could have completed his comback, and molested children for another decade or more.  I guess we’ll never know.
