I'm all for making fun of Jackson, but damn, can we at least wait till the family has had the proper chance to grieve? I'm sure nobody on here would want their kids to hear this kind of stuff a day after their dad died. They want to hear that kind of stuff a few weeks after.
Well, if it's any help, Pope John Paul wasn't even cold yet when I was openly wondering if his anti-condom stance hadn't made his legacy one of the more destructive in the modern world.

These are public figures. Reaction is instantaneous. That's the way it is.

"Don't speak ill of the dead," doesn't even make it past Oscar's rant over the open casket of one of his friends in Corner Gas.
