This. I think people will want to discredit him now that he's dead but his legacy is too strong for it to happen.

Kinda like Elvis only 10 times better.

King of Pop of course.

And now that he's dead maybe the media can give him the respect he's always deserved for what he brought into this world.

Yes he admitted he slept with kids, but absolutely denied any sexual contact with them. Hence, GAMESHARQ's comment still stands.

All the radio stations around my area are playing his music, whether it fits into the genre they normally play or not.

He will be remembered for his outstanding Talent and Prior Charisma. You guys have to remember he had a skin disease called Viltigo. He did not "bleach" himself just to look white. Anyway I will always be a fan of his and he will remain my fav artist of all time. RIP Michael.

Yeah I wonder if the guy down the street was doing that if it would be considered okay. You know because he didn't sing some songs.

he's not a pedo and his private amusement park he built it for the kids. You see MJ had a bad childhood and never got to experience any of those things a child should and to experience it with other kids. I guess it hit him when he was older so that he could spend time with kkids and experience the things he should have. Granted it's a little bit disturbing but it can be justified.

MJ had adult issues. He never grew up. That's why he liked kids, not because he was a perv.

All I have to say is if someone really molested my kid, no amount of money would stop me from going after him. The family took 20 million and decided nothing happen, then the kid tried to get another 60 million which he lost the case. Then every other family that he ever made contact with their kid came with their hands out, not one of them said "I want to see this guy put to justice". Sound fishy to me.

It is fishy, but the guy's general behavior kind of made him an easy target in that regard IMO.

Dismissed legally. From a philosophical point of view, just because something isn't proved, doesn't mean it's not true.

How exactly would you prove that after the fact? People that worked for him did say he gave the wine. He called it Jesus juice. Nothing the state can do if no one comes forward though. With all the various allegations I don't get the unshakable belief in him.

Lots of people accuse famous people of crimes, thats how they get their 15 minutes of fame and get a chance to be rich by getting money from the celebrity. I believe he was innocent, I really don't think he could have done anything bad to kids.
Hes not like a big guy, and most kids probably weight more then him. So I doubt he did anything bad to kids.

There was proof but the jury opted not to believe it. Nonetheless, not being able to prove something does not mean it didn't happen.

it's a good thing courts don't have to deal with philosophical point of views then or else we won't get anywhere.

[QUOTE="DrSponge"] Just because it wasn't proven doesn't mean he didn't. LJS9502_basic

but as far as we know he didn't. No proof means the claim is dismissed.

There was proof but the jury opted not to believe it. Nonetheless, not being able to prove something does not mean it didn't happen.

if the jury didn't believe it, the proof must not have been very compelling.

Dismissed legally. From a philosophical point of view, just because something isn't proved, doesn't mean it's not true.

it's a good thing courts don't have to deal with philosophical point of views then or else we won't get anywhere.

I didn't say that they should. I was pointing out a mistake in the post.
