Michael Jackson is dead

Yes, that is so true. I have at least a dozen ppl who were close to me that I certainly thought would be alive today. Death is completely random and always on your shoulder...waiting for it's turn.

so sad-the king of pop is gone.

I think George Burns said that once You never know....one of the great surprises that are built into life....death.

This is interesting...... ppl really are going to miss him, one way or the other.

The internet suffered a number of slowdowns as people the world over rushed to verify accounts of Michael Jackson's death.
Search giant Google confirmed to the BBC that when the news first broke it feared it was under attack.
Millions of people who Googled the star's name were greeted with an error page rather than a list of results.
It warned users "your query looks similar to automated requests from a computer virus or spyware application".
"It's true that between approximately 2.40PM Pacific and 3.15PM Pacific, some Google News users experienced difficulty accessing search results for queries related to Michael Jackson and saw the error page," said Google spokesman Gabriel Stricker.
It was around this time that the singer was officially pronounced dead.
Google's trends page showed that searches for Michael Jackson had reached such a volume that in its so called "hotness" gauge the topic was rated "volcanic".
The BBC news website reported that traffic to the site at 0400 BST was 48% higher than average.

actually in some of his molestation charges which there were a few he simply settled out of court with large sums of money. i just find it funny how a celeb is held to a higher standard than anyone else. any other person who constantly gets accused as a molester would not be assumed innocent but would be hung out to dry. im sick of rich or famous people getting away with serious crimes people need to separate his music from his personal life and immoral activity. lots of people have hard childhoods a lot harder than his and they dont turn into child molesters. its just ridiculous he gets a pass for being famous. people are blinded by the light of fame ridiculous. i wonder if it is true about ic mag banning people how immature. i guess the powers that be on icmag are big fans of michaels but not freedom of speech lol.

Like any issue, it always comes down to money....

More money means better legal representation.

so true so very true. to some degree you can buy your way out of most legal problems.

To a point. Just ask Arlen Spectre.....

they dont always go free money ups the odds though.

If Michael Jackson were alive and some of these comments were being made, they would be considered actionable libel. While I'm sure most of us have been disturbed by Jackson's behavior in recent years, and have had suspicions about his proclivities, screaming that he was a pedophile isn't okay. For starters, he was found not guilty on all counts, and a court-appointed psychiatrist stated that he did not fit the profile of a pedophile, but rather that he had regressed to the state of a ten-year-old boy. I'm sure that Michael Jackson had a great deal wrong with him, but I don't know the extent of it, and for all of your blustering, none of you do either.

The ridiculous comments about "free speech" are absurd and betray a profound ignorance of Constitutional law. Icmag is a private site owned by individuals, not governement. They can choose to allow or disallow whatever they please. Your First Amendment rights do not apply here or there in any way, shape, or form.

well thats one way to look at it like his music all you want im not a fool the guy was bad news around children if your bat shit crazy which he was you should not be around children wake up dont let your love for him cloud your judgement of the obvious.

I think u all need to grow the fuck up. there dead and u still talk shit? all i can say is wow ur pathetic and have no respect what so ever!


RIP M.J
RIP F.F

RIP Farrah Fawcett

I don't wish peace to child molestors

your right i have no respect for people who dont deserve any dead or alive.

Actually I could care less about Michael Jackson, never had a thought about him one way or another. But its painfully obvious to me some people are projecting thier own childhood issues onto him.

Lol jeeze man you are really over looking things. Just because people are against adults touching young children does not mean anyone here has experienced that. With that post you just made it leads me to think you were in the same boat as those kids that MJ scarred for life. It's okay man, we're here for you

resorting to personal attacks now huh. it makes you look foolish not the ones your comments are aimed at. besides i would be careful with that on this thread its frowned upon.

First of all some of you fucks have no fucking respect! Was he eccentric? Yes! Child molester? He was tried and acquitted, but there were still questions. I won't even dignify some of the disgusting things i've been reading in this thread and I am just amazed at how quickly people forget the positive impact this man and his music has left on the world. Some of you should really go to a record store or talk to your parents or download some classic Michael Jackson so you can learn something! believe it or not, admit it or not, Michael Jackson has had a profound effect on music, fashion, dancing, and music videos. Usher, Justin Timberlake, Neo, etc. have all emulated MJ. Do some homework, study his music, his moves and know that many of the entertainers who we currently adore, owe much to Michael Jackson. The nerve of some of you to defame his character in death!

Was he convicted of any of these claims you're making? If you believe that he was a pedophile even though he didnt fit the profile, then isn't the outcome of the trials (not guilty) more or less a problem with the judicial system? Probably not though... Child molesters get convicted EVERY SINGLE DAY... and as many times as Michael Jackson has been ACCUSED of it, he was not found guilty a SINGLE time.

If the law says he didn't do it, he didn't do it.

Greedy opportunist parents and easily manipulated children will do what they do... and I expect them to be shitheads... but it's honestly shocking how many people are IGNORANT to the facts regarding his legal issues... FACTS, not allegations...

Obama molested me...
Dave Chapelle molested me...
Steve Wilkos molested me...
Michael Jackson molested me...

^ See all that bullshit? Bullshit, I said it even though its not true. Has that ever happened before? You bet your ass it has happened before. People are KNOWN to lie to take advantage of any situation they want. If you get bumped on the leg by someones car on accident, that little devil on your shoulder might scream "LAW SUIT!"

Fact remains you cant prove he was a pedophile... therefore he is not.

End of story...

I'm still shocked about MJ dying... It's a big loss. He was the most original and widely respected artist of his time. He came up from nothing, busted his ass, and made it to the top (Which is more than I can say for most any 'artist' nowadays) -- It just saddens me that the last years of his life were consumed by embarrassment, legal issues, financial issues, etc. I'll always love his music, and will remember him as one of the greatest performers ever.
