Ed Freeman died August 20, 2008, not last week.
But LT Brian Bradshaw and 19 other military members died the same day as Michael Jackson and not a word was said about their tremendous sacrifice. Instead, we’ve been inundated with images and stories about someone who I truly believe was a pervert, a pedophile and a homosexual. And I LIKE Michael Jackson’s music. However, for the media to flood its airwaves with 24/7 nonstop coverage about this man was and remains absolutely ridiculous and, in the light of the service personnel who died, it’s obscene. The 20 service personnel who died gave their lives. Michael Jackson gave us music but was more concerned with what he could get. Tell me, People, whose death has more meaning in the long run? A few CDs cannot compare to the life of a young man or woman who volunteered to serve. As the saying goes, “All gave some, some gave all.”
