Michael Phelps is innocent!

Ok, so first off I want to address all the people out there who think that Michael Phelps is a bad person. A bad person does things that negatively affect the people around them. A bad person is someone who evades the truth. A bad person has no intent of helping the world and they only want personal gain. Michael Phelps is not a bad person! Some people think that Michael Phelps is a guilty man who is dead to the world for what he has been accused to. What is Michael Phelps guilty of though? Being human. Michael Phelps is a human being who makes mistakes just like everyone else. It’s funny because so many people point the finger at him and portray him as someone who they wouldn't want their kids to look up to. But seriously, 90% of adults admitted to experimenting with some sort of drug during their lifetime. So who are the real criminals? The hypocrites who don't want to give a young man a second chance. I remember last summer watching Michael Phelps rake in the gold at Bejing. I remember how so many people love and adored Michael Phelps for being such a champion. But now, now people view Michael Phelps as a liar, a cheater, and a loser. For all you bandwagon, finger pointing, critical people: This is what I still portray Michael Phelps as.
