Leave Joe Jackson Alone!

I think people are making to big of a deal about Joe Jackson and his statements in the media. Remember these things before we start to criticize him…..
1. Joe Jackson just lost his son and didn’t have anytime to mourn because somebody had to represent the Jackson family and take on the press. What if he didn’t do the interviews? Who would’ve and what info would they have given…..very little I’m sure.
2. Nobody ever said the Jackson’s were normal, so why would they start being normal now. Why should the Jackson’s start acting and grieving the way we think that they should?
3. Joe Jackson is old school. He only knows one way to handle things—his way. He’s been in this business for what 50 years??? So some of this stuff is natural instincts.
4. Mr. Jackson is 80 years old so give him a break. Think about your grandfather doing press. Would he embarrass you? Probably so!
5. Where the hell do you think Michael Jackson got his shrewd business skills from?
6. No matter what you think, Michael Jackson is Joe Jackson’s son. I wish somebody would tell people why I shouldn’t be speaking about my son or how to go about it. Nobody knows about their relationship or if they came to peace or some kind of understanding. Not Nancy Graces, not Deepak Chopra, nobody.
