Yes he was a very very talented pedophile. Can you say double standards? If he wasn't talented would you guys still be saying RIP? I doubt it. Or if a serial killer was very talented you you say rest in peace? I doubt it. Pedophiles are very very low on my list. What happens to most victims is common knowledge. I'll shed a tear for his victims, but not that sick talented focker.

That's part of the problem. Too many people watched MJ as he was growing up. All those shows on how his dad was messed up. Poor MJ such a victim:( Cry me a river. What about Charles Mansion? Think he had good parents, or any other sickos? Bottom line MJ was cute and talented, and the average age group here watched him grow into a super star.Please. Please contact me a ben62670 @ yahoo.com. Make sure to include who you are, and you are from Polk so I don't delete your email. Also I am now physically unable to work on any projects. If you need help let these guys know. There are many people who will help if you let them know where you are.
Thanks

M.J.'s music was a bit like Andy Warhol's statement about 15 minutes of fame. The music was like fast food...not very lasting or memorable.
He would top the charts and hardly anyone would remember or be playing those tunes a year or less after that! To say he was the King of Pop is to say that his music was 'superficial and commercial'....something to be consumed and thrown away. It was a disposable music that didn''t really hold up. That's probably what he himself slowly discovered and led to his creative paralysis and the inability to mount a come back.
M.J. realized that he had no 'depth'. And at 50 that's...well...that's...read Leo Tolstoy's Confession! In his 50's with War and Peace and Anna Karenina already behind him, Tolstoy was near life-despairing suicide before his religious epiphany!
The man had his Demons and perhaps never realized his real abilities because of his commercial success. That success destroyed him.

My 2cents..I think his advisors told him not to go to court and it would blow..over. Just the opposite happened and no matter how rich you are you can't shed that accusation!!!!! I hope he wasn't guilty but I don't know the details like someone else said earlier.. I think pedophiles should be sentenced harder than murderers. I believe in an eye for an eye but how do you punish one who's taken the CHILDHOOD from the child?
I thought he was trying to keep innocence around him with his park and some **** worldly adults away. NOT all adults of coarse.
If there was/is proof he molested any child ,I'll not play the thriller cd ever again!
Don't hate me F1nut. I still respect your advice as always;)Most people just listen to music and watch movies. I EXPERIENCE them. -
I tried really hard to come up with something nice to say but I failed, so I will keep my thoughts to myself, other than I hope all the bad stories were wrong and it's not for me to judge.
REGARDS SNOWWell, I just pulled off the impossible by doing a double-blind comparison all by myself, purely by virtue of the fact that I completely and stupidly forgot what I did last. I guess that getting old does have its advantages after all -
Why do people seem to forget he was acquitted of any charges re: child molestation?

You guys bashing MJ are pathetic. Do you have any idea what kind of childhood he had? I guarantee it was 10x worse than anything any of us went through. I mean, his brother used to bring girls into his room and bang them right in front of Michael when he was like 10 years old. You think that had any affect on him?
You take children, from birth, and raise them to hate (insert any race here) or do something like sexually molest them and I can almost guarantee those kids are going to be messed up hard. You take those same kids and put them in nurturing, loving homes and they will turn out completely different. We are products of our environment. People don't choose to molest children. Things happen to people that makes them more likely to. People are wired differently. Just thank God you weren't messed up in your life and are wired well. Kind of unrelated, but how many Catholics do you think there are in India? Not many, because they weren't exposed to Catholicism. Expose someone to something and they're more likely to turn out to be one.
If you can't see that, then I feel really sorry for you. You're no better than a lot of the people you hate. -
RIP MJ. Many thanks for what you did in the music industry.Shoot the jumper.....................BALLIN.............!!!!!

Funny that the same people who preach religion the most on this board, a religion based on forgiveness, are the same ones who throw "burn in hell" comments at a corpse.

bobman1235, that can also be said about humanity itself. I always think about that scene about casting the first stone before I judge anybody.Most people just listen to music and watch movies. I EXPERIENCE them.

Agreed, Christianity teaches that we will be judged as we judge others. I'm not one wanting to find myself in that situation. I certainly don't agree with his choice of lifestyle but RIP vs BIH is not my call and WAY above my pay grade....____________________________________________________________

You guys are lumping Christians into a pretty nasty pot. I am a Christian as most here know and I said nothing judgemental about MJ. In fact my statement was one of sympathy.

According to the Jackson family, MJ's personal physician was present in the home when he went into cardiac arrest, and immediately began CPR.

He was OBVIOUSLY a very disturbed individual. He started out as a normal looking black boy, and ended up a cross between a white woman and a space alien. If he would do something like that to himself, what makes you think he couldn't have done some wierd things to children? There had to be a pretty good reason he paid millions of dollars in out of court lawsuits to the parents. His death neither saddens me, nor makes me happy. However, I do mourn the loss of Farrah Fawcett, who lost the battle to cancer today."They who can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety."

Due to the fact that MJ is 99% plastic he will bel melted down and turned into lego blocks so that little children will have the chance to play with him for a change.
Other than that I have nothing to say!Sig to be updated after dealing with the insurance company:(:(:( -
I feel sorry for his victims and lets not forget that while he was acquitted for one molestation he paid off another to stay out of court! This action led to a change in the law concerning out of court settlements for child molestation.
There's no telling how many people he may have hurt..he took his secret to the grave.
Yes he was talented, but that alone doesn't justify his pathetic behavior!

The guy got very weird after his $50M income from the Thriller album. Earlier this year he had to sell off his "never land" estate via public auction ... probably broke.
Maybe the thought of having to again work for a living killed him...... Next month, he was going to perform in a comeback concert in England......... -

RIP MJ -
i can't see where or what he did with all his millions of dollars.. this still astounds me. he was renting a $100,000 a month home. that's a MONTH.. not year.
I guess even the extremely wealthy can lose it all if they overspend like he did.
I think prescription drugs are going to play such a big part in his death investigation.. ala Anna Nicole Smith, and Heath LedgerPolkFest 2012, who's going>?

You guys amaze me sometimes. Was he wierd, absolutely. But its a long way to go from being a freak to being a pedophile. I don't know what happened with those kids, and NEITHER DO YOU. Condemning someone to burn in hell because of what you think may have happened is just blind hate, I don't see what else it could possibly be.
Please, if someone has some proof to offer up, then by all means lets see it. But as for saying he's guilty because 'I just know he did it' - well there are thousands of people overseas who just 'know' that we're the infadels and don't mind taking out a few thousand innocent civilians by flying a couple planes into our buildings. See what happens then acts or thoughts are based on hate rather than rational observations?
I have more to say, but I'll stop there. -

Not many people will see this side of life, I agree his childhood could of or did F'k him up for all his life.
