First off, settle down.
Okay, now that we're all cooled off, we can talk about this more sensbly. These "millions of children" witnessed a blink of breast, if anything.
Also, tell me how these "children" would have known what rape even is, if they're as innocent as they seem?
On a heavier note, you would not be calling this rape if you had ever witnessed a rape first hand, or seen pictures of it in a courtroom. Not very
pretty.
EDIT: Illusion, maybe you should take a look at your avvie if you want-a some of da nipple, ya?

Settle down? What right do you have to tell me when and where and over what I should be upset at?
Most children do not know what rape is but they saw one live and in color on television that day. That's the problem (please see my definition of
rape and what was witnessed).
This "blink of breast" was when someone, other than Jackson herself, forcefully ripped off part of her costume. She looked upset and distraught.
(Again, see definition of rape)
This was not a National Geographic program on the daily lives of natives in Africa. This was a program watched by millions of people world wide
(people - which includes
millions of children worldwide).
YOU
WOULD be calling this RAPE if you had seen one or experienced one.
As I've said all along, this was a MOCK RAPE (mock meaning not real). But it LOOKED REAL. She DID look upset and covered herself.
I DON'T want any child (male or female) to think it is okay to rip someone else's clothes off or have their clothes ripped off by someone else.
This IS WHAT THEY SAW!
