How do you feel about all of the Michael Jackson jokes going around?

Do you think they are funny? Or mean?

Not surprised.



Neither am I. A person like him is bound to be joked about during life or death.

I don't find it funny though... Despite his strange ways, he should just RIP.

The first one I heard was on FB - someone's status said:

"If muslims get 40 virgins, does Michael Jackson get 40 little boys?"

Re: How do you feel about all of the Michael Jackson jokes going around?

i think it is mean

if it was proven 110% he was a child molester than maybe i wouldn't think the jokes were mean Chat Icon then i might think he deserved it - but i don't know, making fun of deceased people guilty or not seems kind of mean to me

Haven't heard any, but as much as I am not affected by his death at all, making jokes about someone who just passed is tasteless .

Thankfully I haven't heard any. It's really dispicable to make jokes about someone who just died yesterday. Even if you didn't like him, have some respect for his family and loved ones.

Re: How do you feel about all of the Michael Jackson jokes going around?

i haven't heard any. joking is in poor taste. a man died, for pete's sake. it's a sad story and a sad ending for an enigmatic genius. regardless of what he did or did not do, i respect the man for his talent and everything he gave to my generation and other generations. it's just sad. and no one should be laughing.

oops. edited for sp.

Re: How do you feel about all of the Michael Jackson jokes going around?

I think they are in such poor taste as well and would never dare make a joke about someone who had passed away regardless of how i felt about them!

He was never proven guilty

so for his family and giving him the benefit of the doubt, I think its tasteless to joke about him immediately...he's not even buried/cremated etc yet. Let his family have some peace.

I think it's rude and in poor taste. I'm not one to get easily offended..I mean I love a good joke. But a little respect please. Give the family some time to mourn this tragedy first before ripping the guy to shreds.

I really haven't heard any jokes, but as an above poster said, as much as I am not affected by his death in the least bit, I do think making jokes about someone who has just passed away is really in bad taste.

I think it is dowright despicable.

I know not everyone loved him and had their own opinions about his character, but please show some class and respect for someone who has just passed.

He was accused of child molestation and then cleared of all charges. Was he strange? Yes? Misunderstood? Yes. Mentally ill? Possibly, but never was there any evidence that he was a child molester.

I think that with money you can be cleared of any charges - I believe that he was a child molester.
