Michael Jackson Discussion Thread

i have read the two threads on this subject and what i have gathered is one is for people to respect, and one is to disrespect him, from what i make of it people were ordered to stop disrespecting him are be punished, so would it not be fair to get the folk respecting him to stay out of this thread, or at least dont post in it.
would save a lot of arguments/fallouts.

 

That is not a correct assumption, this thread was created for debate and not flaming nor trolling ect folk have chosen to act like * and sooner or later will be treated as such...

 

frankie boyles quits record over this......

A Message From Frankie

Had to quit my Daily Record column over a moral disagreement. We disagreed over whether it was ok to make jokes about a dead child molestor. Here is the whole column, big love my *, Frankie x

So the Michael Jackson roller coaster has stopped. Looks like he got enough.

Apparently he died after walking into a pub in Paisley and saying “Do you wanna be starting something?” We can all learn something from Michael’s life. For example, it looks like oxygen tents are a big waste of money.

Why did no one pick up on it when he had shown all the signs of a heart attack? Wheezing noises, jerking of the arms, ashen complexion? I suppose to be fair he has been showing all those symptoms since the mid eighties. Had Jackson’s staff noticed something was wrong earlier he might have been saved, but when they saw him grab his left arm, go stiff and yelp they just thought he was practising his moves for Beat It. It’s not known what triggered the heart attack, but High School Musical 3 was on cable at the time. In many ways he was a tragic figure. Let’s be honest, he had more personal issues than Batman.Who could have imagined that the monster he transformed into in “Thriller” would look less weird than what he transformed into in real life? It’s got to be a tossup whether he get cremated or recycled. His postmortem will look like the Roswell autopsy.

I was a big Michael Jackson fan when I was 8. I didn't know it at the time, but I was his 'type.'

For his London concerts Michael Jackson advertised for children in wheelchairs or with missing legs! What parent would agree to that? Look what happened with kids who could run away! Those tickets sold out in minutes. An interesting attitude we have to paedophilia in this country, “ We don’t want paedophiles round here! Unless they’ve really worked on their choreography...”

He was a legend and his funeral will be amazing. Ironically the funeral will be the first time in years his children haven’t been forced to wear veils.With the amount of money the concert tickets have made I wouldn’t be surprised if they still wheeled him on. It would add an interesting touch to I’ll Be There. Michael Jackson was apparently refusing to eat ahead of his O2 gigs. He now weighed less than nine stone and the only thing he would eat willingly was nachos. Nachos being the name of a young Mexican boy. It’s said that Jackson had developed a phobia about being fat. Not like him to worry about his looks. Apparently when the news broke Jackson’s father rushed straight to the hospital, just to check if the medics needed a hand with beating Michael’s chest.

Jackson’s family said they were moved to see that the hospital staff were all wearing black. Actually, they were all wearing white as usual, but that family had always had a little trouble admitting the difference. The man may be gone but he has left a musical legacy that will be around for hundreds of years. As will his face.

 

When Jacko is cremated, at least he will be black again.

 

C'mon mate, theres jokes and theres racism

 

Actually mate it was my best friend who is is from west indian decent who told me the joke, is he racist, or is it a racist joke because i am cuacasian. Please don't get all PC, this is not racism.

 

IMO it is a racist joke and whether your Indian friend told you it or not others may not see it that way, Racism is a powerful tool when it goes to someone's advantage.
Would be interested how your friend reacted if people started giving racial comments on a forum... would he just laugh them off.. I doubt it, most use them to his/her advantage

 

I have a difficulty with the whole wacko Jacko thing,first of all he was undeniably one of the biggest influences on the entire music industry,a fantastic entertainer.He was cleared of all the abuse charges,and as for the pay off thats been mentioned here,if anyone abused my kids I wouldnt be bought off,not for any amount of money,I would want that person punished,so I really don't know,I don't want to speak ill of the dead though

 

to me a racist joke has to imply inferiority of someone for being of a different race to you. that joke never, it played on the fact that he was black but became white over the years "naturally"

 

People could argue and say Jackson himself was racist.

And i dont think the joke was racist.

 

How was Jackson a racist?

 

Im not saying he was...but if people want to go down the line of jokes like that being racist...you could have radiclas saying he was racist for changing the colour of his skin.

 

I dont think he intentionally changed the colour of his skin

 

lol! i knew someone would bring her up.
i never once slagged her off for dying or haveing a disease! i didnt like all the false pish that came from her thats how lol.anyway she isnt a * patch on that great and fantastic man.

mj was the greatest performer ever! the man had class.
respect
love
honour
dignity
these are some of the words to describe that great man FACT!.

 

Im not having a go at jackson,you will see i havent slated him in anyway.

i was picking up on the fact that you were * off at people speking ill of the dead...which you also done in regards to J.G.

 

what! do you have to be white to be racsist?

 

Ok maybe he didnt....but how did it happen then.

If it was natural or as a result of all his other surgery then i take back my previous suggestion.

 

ok! so where did i slag her of for dying bob?

 

Im actually sickened by some of the comments in this thread , the man is a legend and should be left to rest in peace

 

bob! you serious? if there was one thing that mj wasnt and that is racsist! no chance in *! he loved all no matter race ,religeon,skin colour.
