thanx for the heads up. Just bought the 'ben' and the 'off the wall' shirts

Arnotts said:

yea.. I have went back a couple of times and i didn't hear anything disrecptful being yelled and i can't see anyone yelling something like that and the media not pick up on it and the fact that the fans didn't stomp that person out!! Literally

IstenSzek said:

Becuase it was disrespectful. i heard it....i wasn't imagining things and a lot of others heard it as well in that room. It was a white guy who said that by the voice....anyway, they are the ones who say that mess all the time anyway. I'm pretty sure he was removed from the bleachers.

daPrettyman said:

also, couldn't the family oppose this? i'm not in the know of any of the legal
issues but if a regular autopsy was done wouldn't that be enough? would anyone
really want to know about past addictions or overdoses, except tabloids?

the man died and that's bad enough but except for his family, who could have
anything to do with it? police have ruled out foul play already. so why would
anyone put a family through added stress and trauma of making them burry their
loved one as they kept one of their organs?

IstenSzek said:

i dunno. the family did order a second autopsy after all...

can I just throw in that I'm very very glad they kept the entire memorial service rather down to earth, maybe even 'sombre'. the reporting the last couple of days had me fearing a circus.

loved stevie, John mayer was a very nice surprise... paris had me in tears. also having michaels spoken words from 'will you be there' mixed in with the song was a nice touch.

scriptgirl said:

yeah what did she say?

IstenSzek said:

they are.

Evvy said:

She told the truth about who discovered the Jackson 5 and she did it without being venomous. She also acknowledged that no matter what's said about Michael, his legacy will not be denied.

Rebelution said:

Nancy Grace is a miserable, evil beeyotch and it is no wonder what happened in her life happened to her...she calls it on herself. I have no sorrow for her, but you go ahead and keep hating on MJ in his death as that will never hurt his legacy, and as you mention your children in your post, remember that MJ has nothing to do with them. The man is dead, is that not enough for you?

so it wasnt Susan DePasse?

IstenSzek said:

I also heard he will be buried without his brain because they are still doing tests. Sad.

No, it was not Susan De Passe. Never could stand that woman

BoOTyLiCioUs said:

I find it incredibly offensive that anyone would scream something so disrespectful at a memorial service. I am also saddened that with all the talk of Michael bringing people together that people would claim that only a white person would do or even think that about Michael. I have known a lot of people who questioned Michael's innocence, and not to burst any bubbles, a lot of them weren't white.

I hope who ever said it, takes the appropriate beating.

Amazing memorial. I was surprisingly moved by Brooke Shields comments and anytime Stevie takes the stage is a blessing from God.

Peace and love! RIP Michael.

thanks mr wonder.

was awsome!!!!
The best always.

Don't feel bad, that is my son's name. I've always loved that name.

scriptgirl said:

Anxiety said:

I cried for 5 minutes after I saw Paris, I kept texting with my sisters and nieces, we were all crying.

kalelvisj said:

i heard it.

too much for an 11 year old to bare. her life will never be the same again. not for any of the children.

daPrettyman said:

Exaclty, just like his brother Marlon said "Maybe now they will leave him alone", but those 2 miserable beeyotches will do everything they can to destroy his legacy, but they will never win. MJ is in a place they will never be able to touch him.

I have to say that Al Sharpton was on point, and I loved it when Paris stood up and applauded him.

Diana Ross.

But I think Katherine Jackson and Joseph Jackson discovered them. Gladys was the one who told Berry they should be at Motown, she was rebuffed. Bobby Taylor pushed it up even further sending them up to Detroit and after auditioning for Suzanne de Passe, I think she was the one who recorded the audition tape and sent it to Berry, who was finally convinced to put the group on the label. Plus Suzanne was doing behind-the-scenes work. Gladys had a hand in helping them get in the door but let's not jump the gun here.

Just ignore these people. I have ignored all the haters and naysayers for the most part. They are pathetic and dead inside. The way I look at it is that it doesn't matter if you like MJ or not, but at least have some decency to stay away from this thread if you are not interested or are only going to make nasty comments. I mean there are a few people I don't like (i.e. R. Kelly) but if they passed away, you would never find me making nasty comments or harassing their fans. YOU GUYS ARE NOT WANTED HERE! GO AWAY. Keep your disgusting, hateful comments to yourself or talk about it in another thread. This is not the time or place for it. Take that mess somewhere else.

One thing i'm glad about is that these comments can no longer hurt Michael. These idiots keep on and on with their vile, disgusting comments but guess what? Michael aint here anymore so he can't be hurt by it. The only people upset about it are his family, friends and fans, but you cannot hurt him anymore so it's pointless. It's very sad to be this consumed with hate. I don't have that much hate for anyone period. You really have to wonder what some of these miserable people are like in real life. Hopefully not as bad as they seem on here.
