I had to turn the video off somewhere around where he started saying that MJ was the only black man to ever change colors and that he was metamorphisizing etc..If he was such a die hard fan at one time...why didn't he do his research and realize that MJ had vitiligo? Wha's wrong with having an amusement park in front of his home? Michael had a "ghetto pass"? For all those who would accept MJ 'just because he's MJ' there was also those that were determined to NOT accept him....'just because he was MJ'. Either way you will always have those who check out facts and base their opinions on that and then those who simply follow the crowd. Perhaps this gentleman addressed this further into the video and if he did that's great. I just couldn't listen to the rest. It's not easy being different.
I don't plan to listen to anything where the youtuber disables the ability to comment.If he's too lazy to do research, so be it. He's entitled to his opinion.And, as I am an African American who speaks to or has read information/comments from countless other Black people in the U.S. and all over the world who have loved and still love Michael Jackson, this youtuber doesn't represent anyone's majority. Sure, there are Black people and all kinds of people who think like this youtuber does but all you have to do is look at the footage on June 25, 2009 or June 25, 2010 to see the hords of black people who are fans and still fans. Please show me where most diehard fans are now haters. I can't seem to find evidence of this.
I was at the hospital for the majority of last night with my uncle and aunt. My uncle is in the hospital and they aren't sure if what's wrong with him will be ok by putting fluids into him (his kidneys had shut down and he was badly dehydrated) but things started looking up because he was getting his color back and seemed in really good spirits. While my mom and I were talking to my aunt in the waiting room, we noticed she had a ton of Elvis stuff (her purse, cover for her phone, wallet, etc) so mom was talking to her about the Jesse thing and how Elvis could still be alive and then we went onto the topic of Michael. I'm not really sure if my aunt was/is a fan of Michael's but the entire time we were talking about him, she was agreeing with everything we were saying. My mom said, "If they did fake their deaths, I wouldn't blame them at all." and I said, "No, especially Michael, because he has been under such extreme scrutiny all of his life." and my aunt nodded her head in agreement and then said, "I never believed any of those accusations they brought against him. If he had really done that to those two kids, then he would have done it to several more. Look at how many children he let in to Neverland." I think people need to stop believing everything the media says and do their own research. I honestly didn't watch the video from this person because I've seen enough bashing of Michael, especially over this past year and it would just make me mad. I'm tired of people going by what the media says and not doing their own research. But I must say, if I was going to respond to this guy, this is the story I would tell him to try and help open his eyes.
