47. Typical City workers, aren't worth SH*T for work, but over paid. Villasshole is alway having big mavish parties at the Mayor's Mansion, some of that city money could paid for MJ.

48. The tax payers have paid enough! Why don't some of these companies MJ made so much money for step up..MTV, Pepsi, etc You know more people have been watching MTV than ever and I'm sure Pepsi has seen a surge in people purchasing their products after every news outlet has been talked about the commercial. They should donate. Plus, LA probably just brought in a ton of money from all those visitors! RIP MJ!

52. The funny thing is LA didn't need all the security and they didn't need to shut down shops because the crowd was not as bigg as they thought it would be. OmG, media... Americans actually have their own lives to live.

57. Acting mayor, JAN PERRY auth'd the money for the memorial, taking funds from the emergency fund, funds that are used for fires, earthquakes, she has a history of unwisely sponsoring events in LA, she helped sponsor a very POORLY run Film festival called Jules Verne Film festival, which by the way was run by 2 Frenchmen who then RAN back to France to escape the vendors they owed,one of the french men was known for improper actions towards young men and boys who attended. She needs to be removed from office for authing city funds for a Private event

58. If every fan ( 1 billion viewed) sent a dollar, a lousy dollar LA would be out of debt. They could have had the promoter and the Jacksons pay for the overtime and shutdowns.
