Michael was a victim!

Here is why:

1) He had an abusive father who only taught him to sing and dance.

2) This is all MIchael knew! He never had a normal childhood, never had a
peer group. All he could do was seek approval from fans. This is a very
FRAGILE IDENTITY -one that could not sustain him through his life.

3) He tried to assimilate into the 'white world' by bleaching his skin.
This denied who he was. He was trying to look different to win approval.
A horrible decision that disfigured him.

4) He needed therapy and rehab. He was in pain, and became a
morphine and demerol addict. This is what killed him!

5) I feel very sad that someone in Michael's life didn't do a needed
INTERVENTION to help him. He would still be alive if this were done.

But all people cared about was his money, his singing, and his dancing.

These people are vultures. They didn't care about the PERSON WHO WAS
MICHAEL JACKSON

REST IN PEACE MICHAEL. I will say a prayer for you. May God bless you.

The idea of death, the fear of it, haunts the human animal like nothing else; it is a mainspring of human activity - designed largely to avoid the fatality of death, to overcome it by denying in some way that it is the final destiny of man.
