Here is one that is similar...

just heard that since he's made of 90% plastic they are going to melt him down into legos and little boys can play with HIM this time!

Come on people, some of these comments are really disrespectful, especially the timing. Give it a few days if you feel the need to make jokes.

Too bad that everything about him seemed to go to **** in a handbasket. He was astute business-wise, taking Sir Paul McCartney's advice about investing in music publishing (and edging out Sir Paul himself and Yoko Ono/John Lennon's Estate in buying Northern Songs/MacLen Music when it was up for sale several years back).

Thing is guys... we're respecting the musical icon he was. We're NOT respecting the alleged child molester he was made out to be, because if it is true, then he does NOT deserve respect.

I made a bunch of jokes when Dahmer died as well, is that disrespectful? Yes. Did he deserve respect? Fuck no...

I know those are two VERY different people, but same idea...

He made great music, but he also molested children. He may have done more good than bad with his music, but I guess karma really does come back around and bite you in the ass, no pun intended.

I still believe his family fucked him up so bad, he decided to transform himself from a black child into a white woman, it was sad for a long time there.

I would bet money it was drug overdose related, people that rich/famous don't just die all of the sudden like that, except for bernie mack, that was just a sad situation.

He died 400 million in debt.

He wasn't a music icon. He was a child molester.
I'm sure he's nice and warm right now. Well, if there was such a thing as a hell, and there isn't.

Most people die with some measure of debt left behind. In this case we are talking about someone who earned billions so the scale is quite a bit different.
He wasn't a music icon.
He had a huge impact on the world of music during his time. If you don't realize that then you have either been living in a cave or are letting your dislike for him get the better of you.
He was a child molester.
Never proven.

Did he make some bad personal choices that caused him some grief... yes most definitely but it was never proven molestation was one of them.

He never had what the rest of us call a "normal" life. He was also a magnet for those believing they could get a few bucks by making accusations and gaining a cash settlement.
I'm sure he's nice and warm right now. Well, if there was such a thing as a hell, and there isn't.
You contradicted yourself up there.

We all "recycle" when we ceasing living.

Cremation gets the process accomplished rather quick and takes care of the bones too.

The natural process is a little longer and the bones linger on.

I heard it was 13 year old weiners.


At the request of Michael, only children ages 10 and under at the viewing.


After Farrah died, she arrived in Heaven and was told that for all the good she did she would recieve one wish. She said "I wish something would happen to Michael Jackson for molesting all those little boys".

Why should I care about him dieing? Soldiers die almost everyday in today's modern conflict and they don't get nearly as much attention as this freak.

When Farrah Fawcett arrived in heaven, god granted her 1 wish. She wished for all of the world's children to be safe. So god killed Michael Jackson.

While I agree with you to a point on the publicity aspect, remember that with out the "freaks", the $ generated that is therefore taxed, would not be there to support our military. While I respect the military's service, it seems all too often the military does not reciprocate to the civilians that feed it.
Everything is dependent on something. It takes both sides to make it whole.
And as I have said before, as long as there are freaks, blacks, whites, hispanics, jews, christians, etc., thats all we will ever be. I would rather just see Americans. Everyone has their panties in a bunch about "Under God" which wasn't added until 1954 ish. They are forgetting about that which is first in that phrase.

ONE NATION.

God doesn't need our governments support. Ben Franklin said it then, and I'm agreeing with him now.
Edit: For the record, I have no problem with "under God". Just the insecure religious zealots that want church and state to be one. Go to Iran if you think it is all good.

Agreed. An older guy told me the version I posted at work and I kinda smirked, then after I posted a buddy texted the version you posted, much better.

Have you served? And the military should thank the general public for their tax money? Is that what you're trying to say?

Some peoples kids...



MJ was never a proven child molestor... but its pretty much a given.

They DID however find child porn and that's pretty sick as is...


Meh, no big loss... I liked some MJ music when was black.. and he was a hell of a dancer..

Doesnt change the fact he's a sick fuck.

That is what I got to from his post. I also perceived his compliment to be rather backhanded. While yes the are dependent on one another to a degree. You do understand that this country will cut funding to a lot of things and may dissolve programs but the one part of the federal gov't that gets money come hell or high water is the military. If it wasn't for the military that you so "eagerly" respect people like Michael wouldn't be able to do the things he did. So during Vietnam and now, the soldiers ask for the scorn they receive when they walk through airports. Too many people pay attention to the media in this country too much and see things the way media wants you to see it. There hasn't been a good journalist in this country for 30 years and I am 100% there won't be one in the next 300. Comments about military reciprocating makes me sick. I guess the liberals on this board still believes the military to be full of baby killers and criminals.
