As for the people making negative comments about Michael Jackson, I wish that they would read an article that Stephen King wrote a few years ago in which he argued that, while Michael Jackson definitely had poor judgment about certain things, he should be considered innocent until proven guilty and that simply being weird is not a crime.

I was never a fan of Michael, but man, watching these inmates dance to some of his songs from when he was a kid still got me awfully emotional. It makes a person wish they could roll back time and raise him right, with love and understanding. I think that's all he ever wanted in his life.
