A great musician died and we're arguing about it?!

None of us really know if he was guilty or not. And because he payed does'nt nessessarily mean he was guilty either. Anyway I won't be bashing the dead. I do believe he was a troubled soul. May he rest in peace.

I agree with you 100%. He said his father call him names and I just believe he went though a lot on this earth. In a interview his father said Michael did not have a reason to be along, because he was surrounded by his family. That goes to show his father don't know much, because if he did then he will know that you can be in a room with a crowd of people(family, friends, etc.) and still be lonely. It is sad he is gone and he don't have to suffer anymore, because I just believe he went though a lot.

Everybody on this post and everywhere else talk like they have never did any wrong. Please save your comments, because I bet there are a lot people out there that have done worse then what he did, if he did it. Yes, I loved him and his music and I did have my doubts about him when he went to court. I was like I don't know what to think, but if he did do it than he have to answer to God about that. It makes me question the parents of the kid. They are much in the blame for taking money from him and still let their kids still go to his house. There you have people coming from everywhere that want to sue him for something. Like the female the Thiller video, come on now why are she going to wait all these years to sue him, because her azz proably broke. That is why these celebrites need to be careful how they treat people and how they handle their buniness, because that s**t is going to come back to bite them in the azz. I do still love Michael Jackson and I hope his family get though this time of lost. I don't wish any bad on anyone.

Let me throw in another perspective here. Will his kids now live with their mother? Or do they already? I stopped following his life a number of years ago. I always kind of felt sorry for his kids, he was a bit of off the deep end and I can only imagine what kind of father he was.
I am apathetic about his death really. I liked his early work, but most of the music he made after the early 90's was crap imo.

I wouldn't feel sorry for his kids. Many many fine people are the product of bad childhood's. The adversity makes them more open and with more character than most people who have had an easier time of it. I bet his kids do just fine.

We are all strange in someone's eyes, but what matters is those that love us in spite of it.

I don't think his father had a bloody clue, and he wasn't willing to step up and admit to his abusive nature.

Boo,

I just saw part of a special about Jackson tonight. They said that it's not been decided if his children will go to Jackson's Dad or the children's mom. I was thinking...please not his Dad.

On my way to work today I hear that Farrah Fawcett had died and the commentator added "the best thing that ever happened to Charlie".


On the way home from work I hear that Michael Jackson had died.
And here I see judgement, unkind remarks, and the inability of humans to see the value of other humans.

To us Farrah was an actress a success in her trade, that means she entertained us well. She became a spokes-woman for cancer, she served the community.

Michael was a talented and creative entertainer. This is attested to by the millions he earned, by the demand of those who danced, sang and applauded his music. He too was a success in his trade and he entertained us well. We cannot possibly know what his life was like, we cannot possibly know of his guilt or innocence.

What we do know is that today two people, two human beings, who had a great impact on millions by bringing them happiness, have passed away and there are few voices raised to recognize the good, but many who pass vicious judgement on what they cannot possibly know.

Compassion must be a difficult virtue to achieve.

He had a horrible childhood.

He really did and there are some people that know how to deal with drama in their life and there are some that can't and he was one of them that deal with it the best he could. After all he went though, he was a great performer. He known how to put on a show. I am going to miss him.

Boo,

I know this is not a time to laugh, but you are funny. If not their mom, at least to Michael Jackson's mom.
