Grieving Jackson Fans 'Commit Suicide'


According to recent articles on yahoo news.com, mediatakeout.com and other sources today there has been 12 confirmed suicides since Michael Jackson death on last Thursday. His fans are very distraught and they are expecting more suicides after his funeral.

The man beind the world's biggest online Michael Jackson fan club has said heartbroken followers of the star have committed suicide because of his death. President and owner of MJJcommunity.com, said he understood the tragedies had mostly taken place outside of the UK but he believed one may have been British. He said,
"It is a serious situation that these people are going through but Michael Jackson would never want this. He would want them to live."

Jesse Jackson, a friend of the singer, has recorded a YouTube film on the site urging fans not to "self destruct". He said:
"This is a time when hearts are heavy. There is great pain but great cause to celebrate Michael's life."

I am shocked that fans would go this far. Michael Jackson was an artist and a very talented individual but when people like him pass on there spirit still continues to live on through their music. This news really disturbed me because to knowing people would harm themselves is a tragic. No human should ever be idiolized to the greatness of a God. People, pull it together. Michael lived 50 beautiful years, he probably has been around the world 50 times and seen 50 million people in his lifetime. Life is to short to want to end it. It is a known fact that M.J. never wanted to get old and thats why he named his first home Never-Neverland. He named it that because he never wanted to get old. Michael will never be forgotten and all of his dreams were fulfilled.
