    WOW...I didn't realize that was going on....it's rather somewhat embarrassing to say the least....not that it's embarrassing that people are opinionated about what their passions are...we will always have differences of opinions.... but that in the aftermath of losing such a truly kind hearted great legend, people have lowered themselves to name calling and smearing other people in the name of "remembering their King, MJ"?? ....if they knew what Michael was about, do they REALLY think he'd approve of such behavior??

The Prince/MJ feud that was around when both men were alive, was merely a fun way to speak about whose music you liked more or what video you thought was better....I don't think ANYONE who ever participated in such a discussion could ever have taken away from the plentiful and equal talent from BOTH performers.. ..they are just DIFFERENT... ..simple enough.....and it was fun to compare since they came up at the same time and had remarkable hits around the same time and they were both the same age....it was a healthy battle and I don't think any negativity HONESTLY came from it....

To compare the two now....or to carry on a feud now is moot....MJ is no longer in competition with anyone....his remarkable talents will live on and speak for itself....Prince would not even WANT anyone to compare him to this man now.....Prince is alive and able to face another day....do you really think he cares about competing with the dead now??  Prince has way too much class and compassion.. ..and he recognizes the talent that the world lost in MJ....but never does that take away from how amazing he is...can't people just mourn without being hateful!?!?!

I would only have to say that the people throwing out such ugliness have got to be young and immature.... I mean, someone with knowledge and sense and maturity clearly realizes this is totally not the way to carry on.....hearing that just leaves me feeling unsettled... .

I guess my opinion is to not contribute to any of the ugliness...just let them say what they must and eventually if nobody responds, they'll not have fun and then move on to other things....such a shame though...

Stay Safe, Stay Happy and Continue to Find Reasons to Smile!!!!

 The few Prince videos that are on YT are being "spammed" by MJ fans bashing Prince and praising MJ. When asked by others about the hate the bulk of them say things like "it's not fair that Prince is alive and MJ's dead","Prince is evil and Mike was good and pure" "Prince has no talent",etc. I feel really bad for those that like both artists. Some have had to remove their comment boxes so they won't be bothered by Jackson fans. One thing I've noticed: Prince fans don't go to MJ vids and say rude and nasty things about MJ or his fans. Is it because we are
better people ? Have anyone in the group had encounters with ignorant,idiotic, hostile MJ fans? If so, what did you do? What do you think of all the Prince/Jackson comparisons? What are your thoughts about the Prince/MJ fan feud overall?
