You know what, I think that will be mostly forgotten in 5 years. Over here you only hear about those kinda things when people wanna joke about MJ in a discussion - and that doesn't happen very often. As for comedians joking about it; it's not really so much fun to joke about a dead guy, and after a while people don't really care anymore. Even though it'll never go completely away (and should it?) I'm quite sure it will grow old in a while. VH1 will still play their Top 50 Michael Jackson songs now and then. People will still buy the albums and watch the live recordings. We won't hear about all the drama around the last part of his life, cuz that's one of those things that will grow out of date.

I was disgusted by many people's hypocrisy as given half a chance (and a gun) they would have killed him over the past few years due to his shenanigans. And not one person here can deny that they have laughed at or pulled a crude MJ joke.

Completely agree. The day I publicly mourn over the death of someone's life it'll be someone who stand a little closer to me than a celebrity pop artist. But I'll say that some are hardcore fan of the guy, and those were the same that probably defended him in the whole pedophilia-drama, so it would make sense for them to publicly show some sorrow on such a day... but for everyone who never really had any ties to the fellow to shed tears on facebook; it seems hypocritical, and it's so transparent and meaningless to mourn when you really couldn't give a rat's ass. They'd give him life over accusations on pedophilia, they'd take his kid away from him on accusations of bad parenting, they don't listen to his music other than on the radio and have no albums in the house, but still they cry when he die - Pfff... I prefer consistancy!
