Its just funny how they have been crucifying him for the past 10 years and then now that he is dead they are glorifying him and not even mentioning what they have been focusing on for the past 10 years.

^^^
Musical Genius Yes, Creepy Weirdo Yes, but ehh Elvis was screwing 14 year olds too, it's just that we didnt have US Weekly and Perez Hilton before to shock Shove us with the crap our musical idols did before. People with super egos do crazy **** that people with normal income and regular egos dont get ousted on. The pure age of innocence that Hollywood shows us of the 30's-50's wasn’t so pure and innocent, they were exploiting young aspiring actresses more if not the same as today's **** industry does with barely legal women. Just my .02

Did you seriously just compare one piece of **** dying and more than 3,000 hard working citizens dying in this country's single largest terrorist attack ever?

no he compared the fickle flag flyers to the fickle jackson fans...although not something I would have done I think I see what he is saying even if it did sound like something in bad taste

after 9/11 a lot of people who never gave 2 ***** about the men and women of the armed forces started acting like they had 10 kids in the service, not to mention the people who exploited the tragedy to make a quick fortune off of these people...not talking about the ones who were donating proceeds

but yes, I was sick of michael jackson bullshit before it was even confirmed to be true...

Yeah, it's even worse living in LA, California like I am... World news set up at the Staples Center, it's total Kaos...All the local news is Michael Jackson.. The Hollywood and LA music industries do most of their business here in LA...

I am losing my mind!!!!!!

I wish he didn't die now... Oh, that little kinky, child molesting, druggy, perv of a rat bastard

He was one of the most talented musicians/artists to ever be involved in the music industry and probably the most famous entertainer on the planet who died of what appears to be unnatural causes. What do you expect? I grew up with his music and loved it.

As far as the "allegations" go, they were never proven. I hope they weren't true. People will do some fucked up things for money (including exploiting their children).

Ross, your delusional..

Just look at that freak, isn't that proof enough for you?

Seriously speaking, 2 charges, kid sleep overs, etc.. etc.. It's like saying OJ wasn't guilty of murder either...

2 charges - both dropped due to no evidence.

Get the **** out of the Texas section, you douche nozzle.

And, it's you're...as in "you are". Not your.

Example:
You're very annoying.

Those are the exact words that came out of the lead detectives mouth..

Now who do I believe a law enforcement officer that doesn't have all that much to gain or Michael Jackson? The detective, everytime..

I don't make **** up either...
Oh, imagine that. The most famous celebrity in the world had a secret room in his house. You ever heard of a "panic room"? It's a damn good last measure of defense against a crazed home intruder.

Secret molestation and filming room unfornately.. A room where no one can hear or see your evil deeds.. Huge beds and filming cameras in a panic room?

Secret and panic room I think not, how about a private perversion room instead?

Hey, I did watch parts of his funeral celebration, apparently the guy did alot of good in his life along with his bad crap too.. Gave to charities, cared about others, etc.. Also his so-called kids seemed to love him alot..

Maybe he wasn't all bad after all... See Ross, I'm coming around a little

MJ's spirit is alive. I saw his image on the hood of my car. Look close and you can see it.
