17. Michael Jackson was an amazing pop legend . All his life he was hounded by the press. For the sake of his family, friends and fans please leave him to pass away with the respect and dignity he deserves. R.I.P Michael we will all miss you but your music will live on forever.

20. i grew up in the 60's, b4 i became a hippie % my music tastes (back then). i listened to the beatles,dave clark 5,herman's hermits,temptation,supremes, & the jackso 5. his solo music never trashed anyone, unlike today. iused to play the video thriller to my boy almost every holloween. istill like his music & always will. what a waste because like so many superstars they surrond themselves($$$), with scumbags that can't say no'for fear by doing the right thing they might lose their precious income job. R.I.P. m.j.

22. I hate to say this, because Michael's passing is traggic however there was another LEGEND that died yesterday TMZ....would be nice to see a Tribute to Farah's life instead of pages after pages of the same information on Michael.

RESPECT TO FARAH AND MICHAEL - Their Legend will live on for years to come.

23. You have a banner saying R.I.P. Michael but your article is seems contrary on that banner. Jackson's family told you that because you do not stop asking question on them. Please show some respect & make that issue private.

24. Long time fan. 18 out of my 24 years of life. I had a horrible feeling all afternoon. It came upon suddenly and i had no reason as to why. Then to soon after find out this. It is a tragidy that can not be rectifyed.. I still can't believe it. For him to be gone so soon!!! Yes he is ( i refuse to say was) a living ledgend, but do not forget he was a man, and a FATHER, a brother, a son!!!

There will be haters who will use this opertunity to once more poke " fun" at a man who wanted to harm no one, in fact do the oposite! FOr those people i have no respect and pity thier soul. A human being has died!!!! An idol to so many including myself.

He was the person that even if you didn't know him personally, you were glad to know he was some where, alive and well.

I personally believe that he was putting so much strain on his body to get ready for his 50 comcert tour. At 25 such strain would do damage. And perhaps there was some issues with pain medication. COmplicated by his pain of performing.

I love you Michael and godbless!!!!

If we all cry at the same time tonight!!!!!

25. I THINK ITS BAD THAT YOU GUYS WOULD TRY TO TARNISH HIS IMAGE JUST A LIL MORE LET THE MAN REST IN PEACE FOR GOD SAKE !!

26. Demerol is not similar to morphine... and is rarely used for pain anymore...

27. Regarding Jocuri's post about the pharmacology of Morphine. All Praises due to Michael, RIP.

This is a rumor at this point, but I do want to point out to the milliions that will read posts from this site.........Morphine, if not medically calculated by the gram for any persons body weight, will kill, as it will absolutely slow down the Respiratory system enough to result in a heart attack.

Any patient who has ever been in a hospital using a 'push-button' hand pump with Morphine to kill pain. The families are absolutely warned against pushing the 'button' for more morphine to enter the patients system, as it will do exactly as I said if any persons body get too much morphine in it to metabollize correctly and safely..........otherwise death.

Were this rumor to be true, there is a strong possiblility that the person who gave Michael the morphine could be held legally accountable as an accessory to manslaughter, unless they were a licensed practitioner.

Perhaps more pain for the Jackson family.

Just postulating on the rumor mill, were it proven to be true, with no disrespect whatsoever to Michael. As I said RIP.
