Prayers for his soul, friends, family and children regardless of outcome. There was a time when listening and dancing to Michael Jackson music was a lot of fun for me. Good memories.

I agree with your sentiment, but it’s possible that a roped-off ER entrance is more functional for the next emergency than is a mobbed one.

So we'll assume somebody needs to make up their mind.

I had wondered what happens with those who commit terrible sins, but are obviously insane?

I was a fan anyway, but I recall seeing him on TV once - he just stepped on the stage and I could almost see the electricity. I’ve never seen anything like it - and that was on TV. If nothing else, he was a dynamic performer.

if you’re a christian you’re not supposed to rejoice in the death of the wicked, but hoped that they came to Christ!

The only way he'd come to Christ is if Christ were 12 years old.

I apologize for the remark.

That’s a photo. Wow.

Somebody on another site said it best:

“That is a stockpile of weapons-grade crazy you got right there!”

Cocaine can cause heart attacks too.

It sure does, but sleeping meds are more likely the case here.

I never understood the appeal of his music. I can’t think of one piece of music of his I enjoyed.

The Eddie Van Halen guitar solo in Beat It still makes me smile, but that has little to do with the rest of the album (or track, for that matter).

It is going to turn into a circus. People already gathering around the hospital.

Your sources must be not so good as it’s Jeff Goldblum not Goldbloom.

anyone want to tackle Jacko’s conserversion to Islam and trips to the Middle East so he could legally bugger boys under the auspices of the Koran not forbidding it?

Not forbidding it???

72 virgins and "18 young boys like hidden pearls" are the reward jihadists have in that whorehouse-in-the-sky they call heaven. (56:24)

No one is a perfect Christian. I have faltered here in rejoicing that a pedophile is dead. I'll talk to God about it later.

They don't rope off the emergency entrance if I go there.

Take it easy, there... They're not doing it for hero worship, or to give him different treatment. They're doing it for crowd control, so that actual sick people can still get in. That ER could turn into a crowded shrine in no time if they didn't try to nip it quick. It's a sensible thing to do.

He didn’t beat it this time. I liked him and his music when he was still a black man.

Thriller was a great album and the video of the title song is a classic IMHO.
