To the buyer - what are you going to do with it, now? It will decay after a while you know.... perhaps enshrine it in gold for more permanence?

Why does it matter who the biological father is? As far as I'm concerned Michael was and will always be their father. That is who they knew. Because you have a sperm match does not make you a Father. Anyone can be a daddy, but everyone cannot be a Father. The man is dead--please let him rest in peace. It is amazing how he was loved in other parts of the world more than he was loved here in the United States.

Not even worth the time it takes to type this message....Michael Jackson is dead, he's not coming back in th form of a Cheeto or any other form. Let him rest in peace and let his children live their lives with a bit or normalcy for Christ's sake. They are babies...they deserve better than this. Sobeit, Michael was an icon, he truly was, he was a great performer, no doubt, and he should be remembered as such without all the bad publicity that he already receives. The man is gone, he's gone, he's not coming back, just like Elvis, he GONE! Yall, this is totally ludicrous!

As far as the the kids know they had a very loving father and we should leave the rest as private affairs. The digging in into the paternal matters does not benefit them or anyone. Media should be used to discuss or bring possitive changes or things that affect a community.They should not complicate individula lives and in this case kids are involved which makes it more sensitive. In this case the media should dig into the drug use of Jackson but not the paternity. It will be really devastating for them to know that the fatherthey loved is not their real father not enough that they dont have a legal mother. CNN is one the nations favourite channel and I guess it should use some discretiion in topics based on sensitivity also rather that the coverage. Dear Anderson,

The children were asked to leave immediately and their community center was refunded their money ($1950.00). It was later explained (by phone) that there was concern (and I paraphrase) that the children would change the "complexion" and the environment of the club. Why is this story NOT being addressed nationally so that we can all - as American citizens - rally to protect our youth from the degrading, humiliating, de-humaizing, and identity altering affects of RACISM?... CNN, this is a story that can easily be folded into Soledad's "Black in America" series as well as linked with the death and legacy of MJ (his efforts to "heal the world, make it a better place" and be culturally inclusive), the ongoing racial struggles and turmoil in America - particularly since there is a naive thought that racism has diminished since we have a President who identifies as African American, AND we continue to wonder why children from impoverished communities have low self esteem, score poorly on exams, and feel alienated in the US... PLEASE GIVE THIS STORY ATTENTION. WE - as Americans - NEED TO KNOW so that we can rally around our children! WE as Americans also need to know the responses of several White communities in that area to this story - an outpouring of help and support for these children who have experienced racism and will be forever changes because they heard, "Why are these Black kids here..."
