¿ ¿ Not a circus!!!! Let's take a look RING #1.. Joe Jackson is on with Larry KING reporting he doesn't know the where abouts of his son's body.... RING #2 A treasure hunt with everyone¿looking for the remains of MJ's prosthetic¿nose which has been reported as missing. RING #3 MJ'S mother petitioning the courts for additional monies for the kids.... All that's missing¿is PT BARNUM. I bet he is rolling¿over in his grave trying to dig himself out so he can make an appearance This is just the 1st act. Much more to follow.... ¿ ¿

I called MJ a drug addicted, child molesting, has been. What is not factual about that. The cops carried garbage bag after garbage bag filled with drugs that would kill an elephant from his house. MJ admitted in an interview that he enjoys sleeping with children. That comment alone should qualify him as a pedophile. ¿Would ¿anyone here have been willing to leave their children in a room alone with Michael Jackson????? ¿Did you think OJ was innocent as well????
MJ is worth a lot more dead than he was alive and I am confident that his family will drag out settling his estate forever. The infighting has yet to begin.
¿MJ is still being carted around LA in his gold and silver coffin. Think he will ever find a permanent resting place????? ¿To me that¿s a circus. Send in the clowns. Let¿s hope his sister can avoid another ¿equipment failure¿ with her wardrobe.
What is more important than MJ¿s death???? From my view point any one of the service people who were killed defending our country but never mentioned while this circus masquerading as a funeral was going on for one. The economy, unemployment, North Korea, and Iran are a few more. There are a slew of others.
Yes MJ had talent as a musician but as a human being he was a disgrace. Just my opinion of course. You are entitled to your opinion ¿just as I am entitled to mine. Sorry if ¿I hit a nerve or ruffled some feathers. ¿

Hey sizzlinhot---GREAT COMMENT!¿ I'm so glad you set the record straight here. Thanks for taking the time to post this. Brittany
Quoting: Originally posted by sizzlinhot The family planned the funeral as they saw fit. The family was only going to have a private funeral. But the WORLD was mourning the loss of Michael Jackson. Instead of allowing things to get out of hand, they decided to plan a televised memorial service to allow others the opportunity to remember Michael. It was made clear that if you did NOT have a ticket/wristband, you would NOT be allowed within a 2 mile radius of the Staples Center. The police had enough officers on duty to handle a approximately a million people who might show up any way. There were more than 2,000 reporters/news stations (from around the world) outside the Staples Center, Neverland Ranch, and the Jackson home. Besides the 9,200 people inside the Staples Center it was estimated that only 6,000 people were scattered from the Jackson home, Neverland Ranch, the cemetery, and the Staples Center. A FAR cry from a million. People were respectful, and there were no reported incidences during the memorial service.
HOW $1.5 million was spent makes me laugh. TYPICAL BS. Officers that were called in to handle the expected crowds should have been sent home when the crowds never showed up.
Asking the Jackson family to cover the expense for what the city/state is responsible for RIDICULOUS. It's not the Jackson family's responsibility to make sure that order is maintained. California has more celebrities than any where else. It's pathetic hearing finger pointing politicians act like this funeral was just 'another expense' they can't afford, yet didn't have a plan B when the crowds never came. California only suffers at the hand of those running the show. Don't put it on the family. Who paid for the police who were providing security when Farrah Fawcett and Ed McMahon were buried? Or during the OJ trial? Or when the verdict was read? Or the Rodney King trial? Or when the Laker's won the NBA championship? and on and on.
**Billzeke you said, "The whole thing is absurd. A bankrupt city and and a bankrupt?state trying to bury a bankrupt, drug addicted, child molesting, has been; while his entire family fights over his remains like jackels. Stick him in the ground already so the world can refocus on things that may actually be important"
1. The city and state "trying to bury him." Since when does any city or state take matters into their own hands and begin planning funerals and burying people?
2. Child molesting? He was found innocent whether you like it or not. ONLY 2 boys out of tens of THOUSANDS of kids that visited Neverland Ranch have EVER claimed this. The first boy's family settled out of court. WHAT parent would EVER let the person who supposedly molested their child walk free and take a cash settlement? Just a scamming family. PERIOD. The boy REFUSED to testify. Charges were dropped when prosecutors didn't have a shred of evidence without the boys testimony. It was finally settled out of court and the family made millions. The 2nd alleged incident was from a family that already had a history of scamming money. They sued JC Penney's alleging the store security guard supposedly touched their son. JC Penney settled out of court and the family got $100,000. 2 scamming families out of tens of thousands. Do the math, and weigh the FACTS.
3. Fighting over his remains? You must subscribe to the Enquirer or something similar. NO one was ever fighting over his remains.
4. "so the world can refocus on things that are actually important." I'm sorry, but what exactly was the world focused on the day before he died? Oh, I know! We had several politicians proclaiming to the public how shameful and wrong they've been for boinking women other than their wives.
With all due respect, I hope I'm never as narrow minded as you, and a few others. If anything you said was valid, I would at least respect your point of view. It's fine if you're sick of hearing about Michael Jackson, and I can agree that it's been overkill. But nothing you said was factual.

I'm glad the circus is over! And how dare California ask people for money to pay for his funeral! Let his damn family pay! They're the ones who wanted to showboat his funeral! His albums hold most of the top slots let them use that money to pay Cali. It's more of the same BS coming from the most liberal state in the country! No wonder they're bankrupt!

¿ Cost CA. about $1.5 mil. for the EVENT. Far less than they expected but they still have a web site that is trying to collect private funds. Collected about $17K so far. I heard that the web site crashed and has been down more than it has been up. CA. celebrates 159 years of statehood this Fall.¿
Back in 1850 when California¿became a state...
The people had no electricity. The state had no money. Almost everyone spoke Spanish. There were gunfights in the streets.
So, basically nothing has changed since then except in 1850¿the women had real breasts and the men didn't hold hands.
LMAO
Quoting: Originally posted by Brittany2012 Wowzaaaaaaaa BillZ!? One good thing for those folks in that bankrupt city and state is, all the people that flocked in there spent over 5 million dollars on hotels, food and shopping----I really don't think LA or CA got burned on that one and the Governor of SC certainly appreciated the diversion--lol! In all due respect to MJ and his family, I think the memorial was done in very good taste and was an excellent tribute to a great musician/entertainer.? Now back to more important things ie: beating up the politicians!
