It is a sad day today. It's been raining since the news came out. It's sad that death has to come but it's a part of living. I pray for peace to the Jackson family. I'm not famous or anything but I've grown up knowing all of you. So it hits home when Micheal Jackson Passes John 14:16
And I will pray the Father, and he shall give you another Comforter, that he may abide with you for ever; Pray like you never have before. This world needs to pray. USA needs to pray. The stars are falling you guys. Don't let time run out on you. Rev 6:12-13. Micheal's been cryinbg for peace and for a change. we made him want to scream. He started with himself and we turned our back. It's too late to change how we treated him while he was alive. the least we can do is listen to what he had been trying to tell us all along. Make that change. Romans 10:9. Peace

''Grown men fainting''

A grown man will not faint at a MJ concert. They were definately flamers.

I really like what you wrote, mr. foxx, about Michael Jackson but was very disappointed when I started watching the BET Tribute. You claim Michael Jackson as a black man, one of your own. You sing his songs and try to dance like him and continually grab your crotch as if mocking Michael. You had vulgar remarks and mannerisms regarding Michael. Michael Jackson was not a vulgar man. He was a respectful, kind, and truly loving man. I think he certainly would be upset that in his career he tried to bring us all together, you know 'We Are the World.' He saw no color only had love for people. ALL people. I don't think any of us truly understood what a sensitive and really sweet man he was. Maybe we should all do what he says in Look at the Man in the Mirror and change. Maybe we should all forgive each other, look forward and clean up our acts!! I want you to know, I am a 52 year old white grandmother and I've always loved Michael Jackson.

Wow the Bet Awards. How disgusting that the show would make it all about color. I never seen a host promote his album or his tour as much as I did on this show. I guess he thought if he threw out the date and than said ' this is about micheal' we might buy it. I actually might have but after hearing him claim Mr. Jackson as a possession rather than a human being I felt that from this moment on I would never play or buy any of his music. Mr. Jackson was an icon but color is not what made him. Take it from the man himself in his song 'black or white'. Are his own so called people not listenening? Are they not listening to our President who's beliefs may not be so far from Mr. Jacksons with 'change' in mind? I'm disheartened to think that now that the great has past we forget his mission as well as his words and begin a race battle once again. It wasn't only Mr. foxx, P Diddy went on to say that the media is bashing Mr. Jackson in which case this is stuff his true fans already know. Let's face it throughout his entire life we have followed him and stood behind him. To act as if this stuff never happened would be erasing some of the memories of Mr. Jackson that lead us fans believe no matter how we looked it was our soul that truly made us or no matter how many people may take advantage of your kindness by making false claims still be nice. This is what I and many others took from the man not only his music and dance but his message.

I think Jamie was out of place and offensive. All you have to do is listen to MJ's 'Black or White'.....Michael gives his feelings on race. He didn't want us to judge one another by color......

I'm a white women who grew up with parents that taught me the same thing(and I was a teenager in the 80's).......we are all equal. Let's get over it already!
