I'm naturally averse to sentimentalism but I think I was damaged beyond repair by the Madeleine story and the forum reactions throughout. I remain, to this day, absolutely astonished by that. It used to make me feel variously sick and amused. Then came the Jade threads. Poor MJ didn't stand a chance as I was highly sensitised by then.

Go back to your private forum and point and laugh at me and others who feel strongly about respect given to those who deserve respect for what they have contributed. I'm not really bothered.
Respect given to those who deserve respect? Fine, if you think they do, also fine is some dont think they do. That is the crux of the matter is it not?

I think it goes beyond that though. Why ridicule those who think MJ deserve respect? Whatever you think about me or my posts, I have always TRIED (sometimes failed) to treat others with dignity and respect. There are numerous threads that I don't go into because I'm simply not interested. I don't go in to find the ONE post that tells me I MUST support so and so, or I MUST respect so and so.
The crux of the matter is, whether or not you like Michael Jackson or thought he was a total prat, there are many others who thought he was worthy of respect. Why belittle those people?

Your opening post, Trev. You took a comment that one poster made about how everyone should respect MJ and ran with it. I felt that you were belittling anyone who was sad at his demise.
"Get over it" were your words, not mine.

Get over the fact that I don't respect Micheal Jackson.
That didn't belittle anyone.
And it wasn't just ONE poster. It was all over the forum this morning and all day yesterday.
So what you 'felt' was wrong.

you are not missing anything, you are making your views very clear. other people, with opposite views to you are doing the same.
i am only responding to some comments you have made to my posts, in 'closed' tt thread.
'i might peel my face off/not a tribute' - refering to the fm who made the original statement, 'i'll even set my hair alight as a tribute' and my subsequent response "are you racist?" - was a direct question to this remark. reason being, i read it as mocking 'frizzy hair' i.e. black person afro! the fm found it hilarious that mj's hair caught alight... it says more about the poster than me.
i asked you 'why' about another comment - let's just say 'i gotcha'. i am a generous person, i allowed 'the win' - afterall i selected 'the example' out of all i could have chosen. i could have said so much more.. depending on 'which side it hangs' determines the response. my last 'insertion' was, and am guilty of not refering to the 'meanings' and rather start dialogue, i gave an account of a true story. it seemed apt a.p.t as lisa would say.
both topics are closed both seem to play out in some weird groundhog day.. sighs again..

Let me see how I can explain this to you better!
Hair is like dead flammable, when I was 6 my hair was set alight by me and some friends trying to light a bonfire.... I am very very white and redheaded.
I wasn't aware that black peoples hair was infinitely more flammable than my red hair.
You inferred I was a racist, even when you saw the news stories about the Pepsi ad's.
Bring it baby!
