In your fanatical defense of Michael Jackson (whose guilt or innocence I here take no stance on) you are completely overlooking, obliviously, my key point. 

What I responded to was you objecting to a GENERAL STATEMENT that child molesters should be severely punished.  numonex has made it clear that he thinks the guy is guilty -- but that's not the phrase that was highlighted by Nirvana_Nut85, which your response therefore addressed.  

I was, and remain, simply pointing out that your words implied that you were objecting to the punishment of child molesters, instead of what I hope you meant to say:  objecting to treating the accused as guilty until proven innocent.  You may think that my criticism is silly, but that's exactly the sort of sloppiness that can lead to people completely misunderstanding and talking past each other uselessly and angrily.  Speaking of which...

Meanwhile, you seem to think that I agree 100% with everything numonex has said, despite my strongly disagreeing with a lot of what he said.  Your myopia is blinding you to what people are actually saying and that is never a good thing in any kind of discussion.  Wise up. 

Typically, when people wish death upon others, guilt or innocence no longer factors into the equation. All are guilty in the eyes of those barbaric witch hunters who actively seek out to make rather morally questionable statements under the guise that the accused deserves it even when their guilt is never proven.

Numonex proved it himself by asserting the idea that just because you're rich means you're guilty.

Next time, try to keep your points in context to what I'm specifying instead of fallaciously arguing something else that has no context to my point.

Speaking of being in context, show me the "wishing death upon others".  Nowhere in the quote-nest (including removed portions) does numonex or anyone else say that Jackson should have been executed or that this other guy should be executed, or that they wish he would die.  Nor was it said at any other point that I can see looking down at the posts the Rich Text Reply shows me. 

All numonex said is that when he (or they) DO die, he expects them to go to hell. 

Next time, try to argue about what people are actually saying instead of fallaciously putting words in their mouths.  And any innuendo in that last sentence is entirely unintentional.

My advice to fanboys: Brag about stuff that's true, not about stuff that's false. Predict stuff that's likely, not stuff that's unlikely. You will be happier, and we will be happier.
