It amazes me, how many people are mourning him. He was a horrible person and his music was mediocre at best. I would imagine people mourned when Arthur Gary Bishop died too, doesn't mean he didn't deserve it. Then again, he wasn't "the king of pop".
You've formed an opinion of someone you've never met, based entirely on information you got from the media, which we all know is capable of mistakes, lies and deception. You have no proof that he was guilty of the things he was charged with. A jury saw more evidence than you will ever see, and acquitted him. Was he guilty? I don't know. And neither do you.
If living a life free of mistakes, misdeeds and wrongdoing is a criteria for someone to be mourned and remembered for their accomplishments, then we can't mourn or remember Elvis, John Lennon, George Washington, John F. Kennedy, or anyone else who made a contribution to society. They, like all the rest of us, were NOT perfect!
There are plenty of musicians, actors, politicians, inventors, etc. who I might disapprove of regarding their private lives or moral choices. That doesn't diminish my ability to recognize and honor them for what they do in their chosen profession.
Today is a day to mourn and remember the artist, the musician, the performer. There will be plenty of time in the future for you to go back to bashing him for his alleged, unproven misdeeds.
As a performer, musician and contributor to the world of music, Michael Jackson is worthy of respect. As for his private life, unless you have documented proof of what did or didn't happen, you don't know what you're talking about.
.... but then again, you've been drinkin', so you're not expected to act rationally!
