Yes, I am going to shamelessly exploit my son’s untimely death for everything it’s worth. Next question.

First!
Mercy College is a co-educational Catholic College in Perth, Australia, catering for 1550 students from Kindergarten to Year 12. Mercy College draws on its history as a part of the journey of the Sisters of Mercy, founded by Catherine McAuley. The school was established by the Sisters of Mercy in 1972. The College’s aim is to offer a Christian education which will provide for the spiritual, intellectual, physical, emotional and social needs of our students. Its website can be found at [1], and from there students and staff can access the school’s InTRAnet.
OK, this has nothing to do with Michael Jackson or anything on this website. If you had said that he had been there maybe your ad might have paid off.
Its pretty standard response to derps who post ‘first’.
This is known as the Ordinal Post Rule. Karen is one of our “agents”. If/when idiots stop posting “first” instead of a meaningful or humorous response to the picture, we can retire.
His dad is still alive? wow, the more you know!
Duh.
I feel that all of US must apply preasure on the Senate to send a strong message to Sarah Pallin… Save our Polar Bears and Wolds!
What’s a wold?
Maybe wal-mart sells them?
Meh, i pay absolutely no attention to his personal life, all i care about is the music, which ain’t not too bad
So it IS too bad?
To quote, ‘Who’s Bad?!’
Double negative pwn.
Seriously though, no matter how you feel about him, you have to admit his father is being a jackass. (or is continuing to be a jackass, either one works.)
My pet linguistic peeve: two negations in a sentence don’t cancel each other. Aint’t no problem there.
Actually, a double negation in a sentence makes it grammatically incorrect. So if you’re all for being incorrect, then hey.. go for it.;)
‘Ain’t no’ is a different sentence set up than ‘ain’t not’, by the by. ‘Ain’t’ generally stands for ‘Is not’ (or Isn’t, as a contraction). ‘Is Not’ would be more correct than your ‘Isn’t No’, but in either direction, it’s still a bad use. =)
yea dude his father is a prick.
please tell me you don’t actually talk like that
People like him make me want to believe in hell just so i know he’ll be down there after he dies having his skin slowly peeled off for eternity.
So Michael Jackson is in hell too for child molestation?
He was never convicted of child molestation . . . In the US we are presumed innocent until proved guilty by the courts and your peers. Unless the media tries you first.
Presumed innocent until proven guilty. See how well that worked out for OJ the first time… I think its more like “Guilty until judge gets a huge payoff in untraceable funds wired to his offshore account”
He paid off families to avoid trials. An innocent person would have fought to have his day in court and clear his name. Only the guilty pay to keep things quiet. He paid off one family in the early 90s, and then was caught in an interview in 2003 saying he saw nothing wrong with sleeping with boys (pretty much the motto of NAMBLA). That 2003 interview set off the next court settlement. Go on all you want to about never being convicted, but paying off the families was an admission of guilt.
Paying off the families could have also been a simple means of getting a horrible situation to end. If Pfizer pays for your wrongful suffering from having taken a medication of theirs, are they ‘admitting guilt’ that it was MEANT to harm you? Hardly, they’re simply settling a claim, and in a cost effective way. Don’t read too much into that ‘pay off’. MJ was well known for his charity to sick children too.. and this answer could’ve been just as simple as ‘If all you want is money, then please, take it, and go away.’
MJ probably didn’t think he meant any harm in sleeping with those kids (it’s an admitted fact that he did so). A charge as serious as child molestation, an innocent person would fight to the end to make sure his name was cleared and any future charges would be without merit. Paying hush money is an admission of guilt.
And yes, pharmaceutical companies and auto makers are admitting guilt when they pay to settle lawsuits. It’s proven to be far more profitable to them to pay off strong claims against them than it is to endure a long court trial and negative publicity. It’s a cost effective strategy of avoiding higher costs and negative publicity.
Innocent people fight and clear their names. Only the guilty pay hush money.
I must disagree with you about the kids. Weather he did it or not…the “hush” money as you call it is bullshit. If he had really molested those kids then those parents aren’t real parents. If something like that happened to MY son…no amount of money would make me go away.
Flip Side: If your child was actually molested, would you take a payoff or would you fight tooth and nail to make sure the bastard was convicted and put away?
SHARPTON: “And I’m gonna help him!”
Tell us something new. What else does he do?
This didn’t make me lol… it just made me feel sad
it’s the truth sadly
Seriously seconded.
id he ever grieve about his sons death
He is the reason MJ was so fukked up in the first place. What a sick family.
ikr!
Michaels not fucked up he was the fuckin best human being in the world, and the Jacksons AREN’T a sick family. Just piss off.
Wow first Jade Goody selling her final days to the better end and now this guy. I totally agree with “you”, I hope there are are special places reserved in hell for people like this.
It’s one thing selling your own death, but selling your own son’s when you already sold his life? That’s going too far. I was never a fan of Michael Jackson, but I felt sorry for him with a father like this.
Ugh. Joe Jackson is a foul man.
“I did it while he was alive, no sense stopping now!”
That is so true. I was watching “Sunrise” thismorning and they said people attending his funeral included only “Family, Friends, Celebrity Friends – And anyone who was lucky enough to get a ticket”. They sold tickets to his funeral. pleh.
They’re not selling the tickets. They’re just making a drawing and sending tickets to 17′500 people, out of the millions inscribed in the webpage.
The problem will come with the resale. People who get a ticket and don’t want to go will have a field day with it.
The day I saw him walking back into Micheal’s house grinning, waving, and giving a thumbs up, I wanted to leap through that tv an throttle him. I hope the will comepletely cuts him out and gives everything to his momma. And the kids.
the will did cut him out. he wont get a fucking penny
It Does!
I’m more worried with the fact of Katherine being the legal tutor of his 3 kids. Just the fact that those sweeties will be around their grandfather gives me the creeps!
You don’t have to worry. Joe and Katherine no longer live together. They have been separated for about a decade. I heard it on the news.
Somebody needs to kill that man right now.
In fact, somebody should have killed him decades ago.
meh, i’m more concerned over having to foot the bill for security at the “memorial”. Hypocritical city is going to pay for the 1500some overtime cops plus detectives taken off cases to keep the peace at an event that shouldn’t happen at taxpayers expense.
nevermind closing down part of a busy city durring a business day. real smart people we have elected.
That’s typical of any high citizen-attented function of any city. That’s what they’re there for. Protecting the citizens?
Or else, you think perhaps Louisiana ‘wastes’ all this money on Mardi Gras officers, perhaps? Similar principle, same situation. Tax payers pay to be kept safe, while having fun, or mourning.
Lots of hate here; lots of mind-reading; lots of judgmentalism; lots of attributions about the inner souls of others.
Maybe selling tickets will help pay off estate debts so there will be more for the children?
Maybe remembering that innocent-until-proven-guilty is a cornerstone of our justice system we might at least respect, whether or not our personal speculation aligns with the results of that system?
–and for the Christians, maybe remembering who claims ownership of justice and the admonition about judging not others, lest etc.
Maybe asking whether, despite the rift between father and son, Michael would have scripted his accidental death to provoke a spewing of hatred and spite, including death wishes, against his father?
And finally, maybe just listening to some of Jackson’s music, like “We are the world . . . “
Maybe see the daily show “moment of zen” from earlier this week where he was being interviewed by a reporter on camera on what he was feeling about the death and he made a “special announcement” about his new record label.
Yeah, that says more than i ever need to know about the slimebag.
meh, you don’t pay out and settle for millions if your innocent!
and the icket cost should go to payin or the police that are going to be there. that’s going to cost us a pretty penny.
No offense Cowlifornia, but I think that is more applicable to the parents than to MJ. As a victim of sexual abuse in my own childhood I can tell you that if anyone ever laid a hand on my little girl, I wouldn’t care how much money was offered: I’d want to see the bastard hang at any cost. Think about that before jumping to conclusions.
My most compelling reason for thinking he’s innocent.
Right, and what parent would want to put their child through the media circus of a molestation case of a celebrity? Especially when that celebrity has millions to buy himself justice. The parents probably figured that the millions paid would cover the kid’s future therapy bills and at keep the kid out of the tabloids.
Innocent people demand their day in court and, especially against a charge like child molestation, fight to the end to clear their name. Only the guilty pay hush money – the most logical reason why he’s guilty.
Can someone tell me who these 2 people are, and what they’ve done? :S They’re total strangers to me and never of those names before.
Problem: Never of them before.
Solution: Google it.
Michael Jackson’s father is a fucking prick!
“Yes my son died. HOWEVER, MY RECORD COMPANY IS DROPPING A NEW ALBUM!!! YAYZOR!”
That about covers it…
its. just. sad.
i have another question for him..why does he think that no ones going to realize he paints his hair on….oh another one, if it rains how does he keep it from running down his face?
This guy is ice cold.
Didn’t MJ claim this guy used to beat him and his siblings when they didn’t perform well as children? Why is he not in jail? 3:
If an artist dies his copyrights should die with him!
No, thank you. I want my children and grandchildren to benefit from my hard work, just like if I owned a farm and passed it down in the family.
@BTW: he was not proven guilty, was he? And then, being in the US of A….
Seeing his fathers face, no one can blame Micheal for all this surgery anymore.
And the award for Worst Father Ever goes to…
The schmuck in Austria who used his daughter as a sex slave.
But yeah, this schmuck has a pretty good lock on First Runner-Up.
Agreed. Austrian guy, then Joe Jackson.
Never question: Are you Little Richard’s fat ugly cousin or does it just look that way?
typo. Next Question:Are you Little Richard’s fat ugly cousin or does it just look that way?
ok so here are some of my thoughts:
1. joe jackson should have been beaten to death with a microphone long ago.
2. why are people insisting that katherine gets the kids, when she enabled the abuse of her own for so long?
3. who would willingly go work for joe jackson?
4. why is it that my cat, who i have been trying to snuggle with all day, just come and laid down in my lap when i really have to get up and go the the bathroom? hello?!
LOLz aww they’re all the same!
– cats i mean!
lol cats are weird
OMG, LOL is so true!!!!! I hate him.
Shouldn’t that little white box point to Rev. Al Sharpton too?
Given he thinks he’s God and is also a total douche. . .
Uh, I have a question:
Why are you NOT in jail??????????
BOTH these guys are psychos.
Excellent! That’s exactly what’s going on. The only smarmy exploiter missing is Jesse Jackson, but he’s probably setting up the Steve McNair exploitation section.
Bullseye!
Typical ni99ers! Where is that freeloading pimp Jesse?
In my own personal opinion, I don’t like Michael, and other poeple don’t either. But his father? Come ON!!!!
this photo should be in the dictionary next to the word “slimedog.” And if that word isn’t in the dictionary, it should be, just for this photo.
did no one notice he spelled “everything” wrong?
thank you for this information. I hope u ll go on helping us to learn this kind of important issues Eğlence ve hüznün bir arada yaşandığı bir dünya.!!!
