I don't think you (or anyone) should judge someone you did not know personally so easily.he was weird allright,but that alone does not make him an evil person..as for the molestation stuff,no one will ever know what was true and what was not.

he's dead now,so there is no value in thinking about this any further.


just for the record,I did not really like his music (so I'm not a fan),and castration is the least painfull and violent thing I wish to all (child) molesters,but I also like to keep a clear mind when looking on/thinking about things..

I never understand how the mass media makes cheap air time, anytime one of these "celebrity" people dies.

Yes, he made a couple of good songs but that's it. Other than that, he was a weirdo with severe psychological and resulting medical problems.

People who liked his music will remember him as the musician he was though, and that's fine with me.

So much can be said about MJ...  Good and bad.  I felt sorry for him that he had to grow up (or not) in such a terrible environment.  No wonder he was so messed up.  He needed a life coach or something. 

I remember it was all about MJ in the 80's.  He had his own style of leather jacket, videos about his Thriller video, etc....  Too bad that since then, he was just a shadow of his former self.

Personally I'm just tired of hearing about it. Yeah it made some music in the 80's that people liked back then but that was then. Since that times, he's settled out of court for molestation charges and most people don't settle out of court unless they just want to shut it up and make it go away. If he didn't do any of it, there was no reason what's so ever to not go all the way with it to clear his name, he had the money to do it. Because of that, I really don't see why he should be all over the media for being some type of hero when we have no clue how many kids or lives were destroyed because of what he did to them. There might not be any and then... there could be a large number of them. Either way, I don't care to hear about it any more, there are far to many other things that the media could be reporting on then him.

you know what I think about this??

That americans are so hypocritical, even with this.

Before he died, almost everyone spat him out, ohh he is a child molester, oh he did this and he did that.

Now he's dead and they all go....ohh Michael, he's our hero, the biggest entertainer that ever lived (have to agree with that to a certain degree) and they can't praise him enough, redicilious.

As to whether he actually did it.....lotsa stories go round, the 1st few people that charged him with child molestation, some were proven to be false since the child later confessed that their parents made them say that, cause they promised him the biggest gift they had ever gotten if it worked.(can you say "golddigger??)

Others even just wanted to badmouth MJ and that was the ideal situation.

And one of the biggest follies of man is:

You can spend an eternity doing good deeds, helping others, living selflessly and if you make 1 mistake, they will most likely remember you for that, not alll the good you did.

Even if people will still remember you for all the good things, most of them will also say, yeah, but remember the time that......

I really liked the final words one of the guys said at the funeral:

Miichael, we love you, and maybe now, people will leave you alone.

I really liked his music, and that is what I will remember him for, for the artist he used to be.

And Leveller, you know what they say don't you?? Judge lest yee be judged!!
And ofcourse my alltime favorite:

Just bacause the majority of the people say something is true, doesn't make it so.!!! remember that.

The main stream media love him, everyone else not so much.

The man molested small boys and was shielded by fame, skin color and money.

Ask yourself- If a 40 year old man had been found in bed with children we would say he is sick and need to be arrested.

Change 40 year old man to "MJ" and some people think thats ok.

I don't nor do a bunch of other parents.

He was great in the 80's then decended into madness, God have mercy on his soul.

I agree with you on a lotta things, and I do agree that he did a lotta wrong things, but about your remark that turn "a guy" into MJ and it all seems to be ok.

If it wasn't MJ, those kids never woulda been there and those parents wouldn't see a chance for getting money from him.
I'm not saying all parents were like that, but there were a few that intentionally let their kids stay over, just so they could claim later on that he molested them.

He is a sad case with a lotta cloudy things around him. Maybe he will find peace in death.

Not to ME it isn't, a number of people seem to overlook the issue because "he made great music"

The fact he made great music means nothing to me.

Your argument is pointless since it was MJ.

There is a number of people (parents) blinded by his fame & press just as a number of people seem to think Roman Polanski is a fine director.

The fact he drugged and raped a minor doesn't seem to bother them a bit.

Sometimes people see what they want to see, I perfer to see the world in all its uglyness and beauty.

I never really believed that he was as bad as what some made him out to be. He was definately wierd. And it would be a cold day in hell until one of my kids would spend the night in "neverland".

But, after the nonstop 24/7 coverage that went on for 4 straight days. I honestly dont give a shit.  Damn Auto-edit! The original didnt say "crap" haha

P.S. Thriller was cool though.    Wink

GDonovan,

I know the "being OK with it" part doesn't reflect your opinion, but those people "overlook" those things, bad as that may be, because they don't believe those alegations are true.

Is it really 100% proven that he did infact do those things he's accused off?? Did they find remnants of any drugs in any of the kids that have been there?? And if he in fact raped a minor, there should be physical evidence.

I don't know all the ins and outs about the numerous trials that were going on about him and I'm sure there is some truth in them, but in my opinion there is more to it.

And this is all I will say about it, cause like most people, after all those days of continouos MJ news around the clock, I'm getting pretty fed up with it.

That maybe true with some folks but I have run across plenty of people who were willing to overlook what MJ had done.

What part of "shielded by fame, skin color and money" wasn't clear?

Quote:

That was Roman Polanski- He drugged and raped a 14 year old girl and fled the states before trial, In May 2002, he won the Palme d'Or (Golden Palm) award at the Cannes Film Festival.

I don't know about everyone else, but I have a lot better things to do with my time than talk about (or talk down upon) some dead guy... on that note, the guy made quite an impact on the music industry, and will be remembered for that.  The rest I really could care less about... just like politics. Then again, I am not some old man with nothing better to do.  Cool And for those who don't like it, Beat It, just Beat It.

You just made my point for me.

Hey I have Thriller in the rack in my car but that doesn't mean he gets a free pass for his other actions.
