(V): Frankly, who cares? MJ is dead. He's still dead. He's no model for anything. He was a musician and that's that. His personal life is not something to hold up as a model. He was a drug addict. He engaged in illegal activities. He was an abuser of drug and that's what killed him. And I'm growing tired of the victim attitude. Lots of people have poor childhoods but that's no excuse to do some of the things MJ did. Let's face it, if he were a old white unemployed bum, fat and unshaven, who just happened to have a similar unpleasant upbringing, and he was "sharing his bed" with kiddies (as a bridge to his childhood or whatever) you'd sing a different tune. So would the world.

Too many people made excuses for MJ in his life. That's why he's dead. Now they are making excuses in his death. Beyond stupid.

I loved his music. Ben is a favorite. I'm sorry he's dead. But facts are facts. He died because he abused drugs. And he paid a unscrupulous doctor to acquire the drugs illegally and administer them illegally. In that respect, MJ was a criminal. But the left will not allow this. Even though they went after Rush Limbaugh for his addiction to pills, and they wanted his head, MJ does worse and the left has only platitudes.
