Yes, but the companies who sell rapist whistles will go bankrupt.

Micheal jackson did die.
Watch CNN.

The rape charges weren't true.
If they was, he'd be in jail.

Some of yall need to grow up, believing everything your mamma tells you.
Honestly.

nows a realy good time for michael jackson jokes.
1) what do mj and play station have in common? Little boys turn them on!
2) a plane flying over the atlantic ocean starts to fall out of the sky, in a panic everyone starts screaming. An older woman yells at the top of her lungs "We have parashoots.. Save the children!!" To that a buisness man retorts "Fuck the children!" and michael jackson sheepishly replies "do you think we have time..?"

umm.. cant think of any more off the top of my head =/

(CNN) – Entertainer Michael Jackson has died after being taken to a hospital on Thursday after suffering cardiac arrest, according to multiple reports including the Los Angeles Times and the Associated Press. CNN has not confirmed his death.

they still haven't confirmed.

he's faking; probably paid those people off to say what they claimed; he just wanted to sell out his ticket sales for those 50 concerts, and "die". he'll be on some deserted island partying and molesting little boys

R.I.P
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rcdpiooajjI

He wouldn't gain a cent from faking his death.

Harry is still a kid, so he doesn't need to be adult. He's still quite mature, so stop talking about it.

And I would believe the LA times more than CNN since he died in LA.

and btw i may go to his funeral with uncle, but i kinda doubt it hopefully though!

Yeah my friend just told me

He was supposed to go on tour too.

The reports conclude that he had a cardiac arrest, but with a little speculation, I think we can form our own rational reasons of death:

Drank too much "Jesus Juice"

Clubbed to death by angry parents after he won the child molestation lawsuit.

Poisoned by angry parents after he won the child molestation lawsuit.

Massive cardiac arrest when boy scouts knock on his door looking for a troop donation.

Grabbed his crotch one too many times and suffered permanent sterilization as well as massive blood loss.


Any other ideas are welcome

Harry and Joker, Stop.. Plain and simple ;)

And no one should die at the age of 50, famous or not.

Michael Jackson, the King of Pop, Is Dead at age 50.

Just throwing that in..

From: Rubix

He's black.
He didn't have an operation, he had a disease called vitligo.

From: MetalancA
Lol I think Joker is a little bit too attatched to Mr. Jackson.
It's kind of funny how people defend a person they've never met so vehemently because they're famous.

He isn't attached, I believe he is overwhelmed by the abundance of ignorance you possess.

He started to lose his pigmentation via vitligo, and because of it he started going to a dermatologist. Instead of just living with patches of "white" skin like most other people with the disease, he decided to do something about it. Since you can't really dye the "white" patches darker again, he instead bleached the darker skin to match the patches. We didn't see the in between phases because he wanted to hide his condition from the public.

tl;dr, it was not his fault it began, but it is partially his fault he went "all out".


I feel the only reason why people act like they do not care, simply because they have no reason to. Sure, loss of someone's life hast to suck for a lot of people who knew him, but probably 99%+ of people never knew the guy. Sure, he was a celebrity, but it isn't like he did anything for you. I probably sound like an ass by saying this, but honestly, it is not like his death is more important than anyone elses. Does everyone care about all the hundreds of thousands of people who die daily?

I agree with Harry. My mom cried because he died. I thought that was pretty ridiculous because I don't see how you can be so attached to someone you don't even know that it makes you cry when they die. I like his music, but I don't know anything about him, nor his personality, so I don't really care (although I think it's a terrible thing to say that I don't care about someone, my feelings haven't changed for today since I found out he died). People like Erin (my girl friend), my parents, my siblings, close friends are people who I'd cry for when they die, not some random artist.

It's not that people don't care about other people's deaths.
They just aren't televised meaning, we cannot feel emotions for those who we dont know just passed.

But since micheal's was, we can feel something.
Plus alot of people grew up with Micheal, one like my mom.
He been in the musical bussiness since what like 5 or something? idk.
She met his mom, the jackson 5, and his father.
So she cried when he died.

That's different, Buckley. She knew them much more personally then anyone else in this thread. And you respect and love your mom, and so things that make her sad, are undoubtedly going to make you sad. :]

true true.

But think of it this way.

When you were 7, you had a fav singer, he was 9.
As you grew, he grew.
He still in the music business, and your still a big fan.
Then all of a sudden, he dies.

Wouldn't you feel sad?
I'm sure thats the situation with alot of people.

http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/entertainment/8119993.stm

he was born in Gary, Indiana.

I was there twice…well, rode through twice on a greyhound bus…close enough

It's happened a lot. I love Michael Jackson by the way, I've listened to him all my life and I still will. And tons of people have died in my life that are a lot closer. And if you've read my story, you'd know what makes me sad ;]

i read the story :]

Edit: some people are celebrating his death, and some are crying over it. realy i think both sides are stuipd. Sure he did invent pop, which is cool i guess, but he isnt that important that its worth crying over. And sure he did some shit, touched a little boy but celebrateing someones death is just sick IMO. He is just a guy like all of use and as harry said before, his death is no more important than anyone elses.

ok guys, look, this is what lead to his cardiac arrest:

he began taking pain meds after all his plastic surgery

he did speed at the same time

this has been going on for 10-15 years.

speed, meds, and alcohol don't mix…

i'm sure more ppl on earth or smiling than frowning about MJ's death.

I just woke up at like 9:30PM and went to kitchen to get a beverage. Along the way, I glanced at the television and CNN was on and it said 'Michael Jackson Is Dead'. I asked my mom, "How did he die?" Then she told me of cardiac arrest.

GTFO harry, he wasn't a child molester!!!!! F**k some people just have no respect for others

RIP. If I hear anyone mention anything about Michael Jackson being a rapist or a child molester again I WILL infract you for spamming. He was acquitted of those charges and you should be saddened by his passing rather than abusing his memory. He was a great singer and performer. You guys should remember him for the good things he did to the world rather than some stupid accusations…

Meh, he can't get any whiter because he's dead. If he does, he'll become transparent.. :rolleyes:

He was very wealthy, yet had money trouble. A couple years ago he almost lost 'NeverLand' because he couldn't pay off the loan. A different loan company paid it off so that he could keep 'NeverLand', so now that loan company owns part of it.

He made over 75M/year (at least, from the news source here in California).

He definitely was a huge musician and will be remembered. RIP.

Oh lawds, just because "the court system" said he was not guilty, it means it is true? :duh:
I agree that there was a very high chance those accusations were false, but saying "he was acquitted of those charges" proves nothing.

Anyways, I don't make jokes about his death, or about any of his accusations, just I bet the majority of you would have easily said any of those a few days ago, or have said quite a few in the past…

Just cause you didnt know him personally doesnt mean you cant feel sad about it. Theres no denying his influence on the music industry and on millions upon millions of people in the world was massive - he brought joy and happiness to so many and advanced music tremendously. (personally I dont care, but I can recognise his contributions)

It scares me how similar age he is to my dad, a difference of about 2 weeks, same thing could happen to him.

Its a shame no where near as many people cared about Colin McRae dying,someone I actually knew more about.

RIP.

Scary thing is, he is my Dad's age :O RIP mate.

Joker, you look a lot more childish than Harry at the moment, so give over.

What can Michael Jackson never fully complete? De-composition

MJ was a talented artist and musician, but that does not make his death any more significant than any other death in the world. He has not changed any of our lives in any meaningful way (unless you listen to his songs like they are the bible [not getting religious here]). He is just another guy who dies.

I don't care if he did or didn't do what he has been accused of in court, but I could never forgive him for doing said atrocoties. I believe he won because he had so much money he could pay for any lawyer he wants. There was good evidence against him, and in his favour. We cannot know.

This thread is not needed, but moreover, is very pointless. It is understandable to be saddened by his death, but let other people have their opinions. If people think he was a Child Molester, then let them have their opinion. They ARE entitled to it, after all, didn't God create every one equal, meaning everyone has an equal say in things.

My opinion? I hope the devil shoves a pitchfork up his arse for the rest of eternity.

MJ influenced a lot of people's lives, changed entire child hoods. Most here are too young to remember buying their first tape-recorder and listening to michael jackson, but the rest of the world remembers it fondly.

At SRL just like we don't disrespect jagex and try to stay discreet, or how we don't go around posting porn and NSFW we don't trash memories. Have some respect for a memory, have some respect for yourself. Have some dignity. If you wish to trash a memory, you can do it elsewhere.
