Update: 25 June 2009 - as far as I'm concerned, everything that was great about Michael Jackson died a long time ago. What died for me today was the hope that he would redeem himself in the end.

Hate Mail From MJ Fans (apparently, this is the insanity that the man, and not the boy, has inspired):
wildcatsbr - "Call yourself a Jackson fan - a real Jackson fan would never have said that"
Who granted you the authority on what constitutes a "real" fan?
donnylovesayesha - "Michael grows up to be a billionaire and greedy theives try to extort him of his money by lying on him and saying he molested them and the idiot author of this video believes. no it's ashamed idiots like you exist in the world."
MJ admitted to allowing children sleep in his bed. Whether or not anything illegal happened, it was highly inappropriate and would not have been tolerated if he had been just a regular 50-year-old man. Who exactly is the idiot here?
dtrance71157 - "You idiots.Michael is the greatest still a talented artist and he has won all the awards and broken records that can never be matched by any artist.Why the fuck do you post this video if you are ashamed of Michael."
Won ALL the awards? Exaggerating much? The reason I made this video is to pay tribute to the extraordinary talent of the Jackson 5. As a child, MJ was phenomenal; as a young man, he was practically a god; but for the past 20 years, MJ was a complete disgrace, a total caricature of everything that he had been. It was a sad, pathetic waste of an enormous talent.
iRamixx - "Go screw yourself Man, stop with the hating. Michael looks great,"
His autopsy revealed that he was nearly bald, the bridge of his nose was missing, and at 5'9", he weighed only 113 pounds. He looked great? He was emaciated and disfigured by his own hand.
LitterboxDiorama - "It may come to a surprise for you to learn that life is a living hell for all ....more so for those who carry a burden of being famous. Its enough to kill most early on only after it claims their emotional stability & distorts their concept of reality."
Oh yes, being famous is such a living hell... all that money and fame. Oh, what a torment. *rolls eyes* Granted, he was forced into show business as a child, but who forced him to remain in show business for the past 30 years? No one. The life he had was the life he had chosen, and most of the misery in his life was self-inflicted.
cjscrew - "is everyone so focused on micheal that ya'll dont see that LaToya got the same disease? And the person that posted this can suck a natural dick cause CorrectPeach dont deserve to post a Jackson video. Bitch!"
Charming. That last part was just complete bitterness. But LaToya has never said that she has vitiligo, so do not assume that she does. In addition, she was always the lightest in complexion out of all the siblings. Even as a child, she stood out in family photos for being so light.
Poemacto - "CorrectPeach, someone who is capable of saying what you said about him is not worth enough to post one of his video"
More bitterness. Obviously, you liked the video, but are confused that someone who was disgusted with the man was so impressed with the child. That's your problem.
mischaVa1 - "correctpeach he long ago redeemed himself and has grown to be THE KING of POP. The speculatuions of him of molesting kids was never proven and there were witneses of other kids conforming he never touched them or has ever behaved in such a disfunctioning manner"
First of all, he was the self-proclaimed king of pop, and, to me, that means nothing. People don't get to give themselves titles; did Elvis declare himself the King of Rock n Roll? Did James Brown declare himself the Godfather of Soul? No, titles are awarded, not taken. And secondly, anyone who has ever been the victim of molestation can tell you that without penetration, it is incredibly difficult to prove.
cheekymonkeycity123x - "im glad we can both express our feelings towards michael in a positive way because he was a great person and will nver harm nature"
Never harm nature? What about himself? He had every natural feature cut off from his own face. He was barely recognizable.
itsumbre - "You are such an inconsiderate, ignorant, disrespectful bitch. You might as well take down your videos, you are not a fan. Go "support" another group. To talk about someone in that matter that has passed is disgusting. You are a disgusting human being. When u die, NO ONE will know. While ur talking about his life...what will be your legacy? Bitch."
I have no comment for this. It's just so ironic that the love of a MJ fan would inspire someone to compose so nasty a message.
