Why are you comparing a dead man found innocent to Vic? Also if you a teenager why go to Michael Jackson?
Why are you being a jerk to me.
Asking you two questions is being a Jerk now. Earlier you asked not to be called an idoit and now here you have resorted to name calling.
You just said why I compare MJ, who passed away due to cardiac arrest/homicide in 2009, to Vic.
And said if I'm a teenager, why go to Michael Jackson.

Once again asking you two questions is being a Jerk and you who didn't want to be called an idoit is now name calling.

According to your profile you have been 3 when Michael Jackson was in trial so it was interesting to me a teenager would go that far back other using Bill Cosby for example which is a far better comparrison.

Based on his signature I’m gonna take a shot in the dark he’s a big fan of Michael Jackson’s music. Hence why he went to Michael Jackson as an example.

Why so angry with my comment.

No, I'm a huge fan of other music than Jackson.
I just use this signature cause I didn't know what will I want to use.

Why is people hating me saying Michael Jackson.

Seriously guys, I'm not being biased for Jackson.
I was just asking a question.

That's actually impressive. The first time of any note of an actual lie to attack Vic's supporters and they go ahead and make it real. Fucking legendary.

Adam Sheehan also deleted his tweet:
https://twitter.com/neumaverick/status/ ... 7953735681
I deleted my post about the SWATing. After talking with some people I found it was not true. I also found out that this person in question has some clinical issues. I’m looking into what help they might be able to get in response to this news.
I’ll ask you one more thing. That is to not attack them for this if you know who they are. They need some help now and not more people piling on. Thank you.
In case anybody did not see what Sheehan originally tweeted, here they are:
Someone in the anime community who spoke up about the Vic had their door kicked in by a SWAT team this morning after someone made a fake 911 call. They said they stand with Vic on the call. This garbage person is on your team #StandWithVic people. #KickVic
Luckily the person who got their door kicked in was not hurt. The police apologized for the act and are helping to fix the door.

Hey, things may be rough, but the guy's been fired. He's gotten what he deserves for the things we knew he did, everything else is just kind of a really stupid aftermath. Either way we still haven't progressed to the Undertale needle cookies yet or whatever.

Nah, they're probably going to say "that wasn't us that was someone on the kickvic side trying to make us look bad", which is of course going to seem awfully hypocritical while they parrot the "evidence-faking" facebook troll as proof that the victims are lying.

Yeah.

I suggest just taking a step back from this thread and only checking it once a day at most. It's just depressing, frustrating, and unfulfilling to face this nonsense that, ultimately, we have no real input on.
The point of Dragon Ball is to enjoy it. Never lose sight of that.

I'm in a random thread on Reddit and what do you know, I stumble across yet another accusation of Vic being inappropriate in an unrelated topic.
No joke that guy they’re defending is a fucking creep and you’re right they only do it because they value their personal entertainment over someone else’s hardship.

I have a distinct memory of a convention I attended in 2006 and that VA grabbed me from behind without any kind of consent. My mom and I were leaving the event and heading for the airport and all of a sudden arms are around my pre-teen waist coming from behind and his face is literally breathing into my ear. Like, idk if he thought he was taking a photo with a fan, which I guess I get on some level. But the manner that it happened was jarring and inappropriate, and if his first instinct was to grab a 14 year old stranger like that who made no indication of being a fan, I definitely fucking believe he’s capable of more.

Needless to say, we left on a kind of bittersweet note because of that. I tried really hard for years to spin it differently, like I didn’t know it was creepy as fuck, mostly because his fans are kinda rabid and a slight against him was apparently a slight against the series or something lol. That all being said it’s increasingly fucked up that we live in this culture that downplays and invalidates victims of unwanted touching, assault, etc. because that shit is real and McNugget is a slimeball.
EDIT: As for the SWATing situation (which I never believed from the start), it's a perfect example of how false accusations are actually ridiculously easy to demonstrate.

I'm almost, almost more disgusted by the fact that someone would fake a SWAT thing than I am with the notion of people actually SWAT-ing over this. Almost. Either way, I'm quickly losing faith in humanity over both sides of the situation at this point (in regards to how far some fans are taking things, I mean).

Is this getting older? Is getting older losing faith in your own race? At 30, am I just going to turn into Red Foreman?

They're similar, but not quite. Mignogna will never in his lifetime ever dream of reaching the same fame as Michael Jackson did. The Michael Jackson case continues to this very day and age be the textbook example of media sensationalism and unsubstantiated rumor-mongering at its very worst. Lies taken as facts, an ever-changing narrative from accusers and prosecutors alike, and lest we forget, supposed "victims" who denied those rumors categorically (the man who first started to accuse Jackson of molesting his son, admitted he was lying to leech money off from him and he committed suicide one month following Jackson's death). That situation cost him jobs, including being the compositor of the OST of Sonic 3 and Knuckles, destroyed his life and contributed to his untimely demise. Even to this day, even after his death, people are still trying to ruin his legacy and mooch money off from his estate the worst way possible (see: Leaving Neverland).

Having said that, it would be unfair to say that the allegations don't mean anything against Mignogna. If the allegations are proven to be false, at best, for Mignogna, it means that they tried to destroy his reputation and he lost a few jobs. And at worst, if the accusations are proven to be true, then he should be on prison or serve community service. I'll reserve any judgement to those that actually knows all there is to know about any given case about him.

OK, I get it now.
Speaking of few jobs, Mignogna not only played the current role as Broly, but he also play the role as E-123 Omega from the Sonic Series, which he still currently is today.
