When he was alive would you have let him babysit for you?
Not mourning him - loved Thriller when I was youngers - Billie Jean was my song!

Would I have let him babysit for me? No but I would be wary about anyone - most children are abused by someone they know, and more often than not, a family member!

So anyone who is found not guilty must be guilty?

The second boy that came forward was just trying the same it was said that the evidence given it court was inconsistent.

I believe that Micheal Jackson was someone who had problems due to a stolen childhood that's why he surrounded himself with children he related to them, i don't think he was a pedophile but that's my opinion others think differently.
I'm sure he was a kiddie fiddler, however considering the abuse and totally unnatural childhood I can understand why HE didn't consider what he did with his life to be wrong. He was always looking for something he believed everyone else had had when young. Unfortunately he was bloody wrong and screwed up.

As for stopping the jokes, why? He's been a joke (after being a true genius) for 20 odd years, the fact he is no longer breathing is irrelevant. I personally see most of the jokes as a testament to the impact he made on the world. When you consider what people are joking about - fiddling, plastic surgery, behaviour etc they are not funny subjects per se but because he took it all to extreme, it's going to happen.

Doesn't stop it being a sad event but hey, death is what happens. You're born, you live, you die. No biggy, no surprise. That's life.

I agree. MJ was without doubt one of the most talented eccentric nutters of his musical era. The jokes are harmless enough and to be honest much worse used to be said when he was alive...

I disagree, his music was crap. He was an OK dancer but I didn't like the way he kept grabbing his crotch. Way over rated IMO.

Poor Michael Jackson, Rest in Peace, love his songs.

Say, Say, Say is just an awesome song that he did with Paul McCartney.

Wonder what is going to happen to the rights to The Beatles songs
