61. Hey #38 your right Karma is a bitch and maybe that's why this guy is dead at 50.......

62. 38. # 28. It is shameful to speak ill of the dead. I am sure your life has been one of perfection and purity?
If MJ's death is of NO LOSS to you, why are you on the internet looking at the posts and making negative
and ill willed comments to one who has passed.
No loss to you? H-m-m-m. Obviously not. You had to get that hatred out didn't you?
Shame on you. Maybe someday you will learn something called compassion.
Until that time-remember karma is a b*tch.

63. Jackson family: I am so very sorry for your loss. My heart is heavy, I cried all of yesterday and today. Michael is more than just a musician, he is an ICON! His music changed my life! "Man in the Mirror" made me who I am today!
Please don't listen to any of the negative things that some of these worthless hurtful people have to say, It crushed Michael, don't let it do the same to you. You know what he was, let him live on inside of you, like he does for all of us. Thank you Michael Jackson for being you, everyday, in every way ... you are SO missed!

66. WHO CARE:

He has died at 50 because it was his time to go. No one is saying he was a perfect person.
Obviously "WHO CARES", DOES care otherwise you wouldn't be so hostile about directing your negative
comments to a human being that has passed.
Shame on you.
YOUR KARMA will come back at you when you least expect it.

68. "Who CARES? So jackson is dead. Thats what happens when you take drugs. He was 'nt that good especially his dirty dancing(grabbing his crotch while dancing) That is really disgusting. He was a freak ,look at his face, i mean who the hell gets 50 plastic surgeries on their face? He wasn't that great a singer or a person. Who the hell hangs there baby over a rail and laughs about it? Someone who isn't right in the head. Any regular person who would have done that would have been put in jail, but not the king of pop (something he started calling himself) Maybe his kids can now have a NORMAL life. No tears from me, he is no loss at all."

go suck yuh dutty stinking mother racist biatch

70. The media should be shame of themself, following him around the way they did, calling him a freak, a pedophile.

Shame on you ET, TMZ.

Rest in Peace Michael. You are in a better place.

71. And the Jackson family got their medical degree from what school? They would say anything to help sell papers and get more money.

72. GIA GIA GIA......Why is speaking ill of the dead bad? Ye reap what ye sow, and this guy sowed a lot of garlic. Also, while we're on it, I notice that all of the "Michael" supporters immedietly call non-supports names. My comments were directed at this pathetic excuse of a person, a molester of children, a freak of humanity not at other posters. Why the hatred towards my right of free speech? As for why I'm even here, its a slow day...and watching you unravel is fun!

73. No one left anyone of us to be judge ... quit bad mouthing him he was an incredible talent.... something did go wrong with him... look to his dad for that is what I believe. It is over now.... his talent is what we celebrate... forgive his weakness. RIP Michael Jackson!

Posted at 11:38AM on Jun 26th 2009 by his Family....joe jackson alive and well!!! looking to make his due!

74. I am waiting until it is official- Thank You TMZ for staying on top of this story. More citation is needed for me to buy the allegation of Demerol.

75. they always blame the drug, not the drug's fault , millions get demerol every day

he may have had a bad reaction , but not DR or drugs fault
