Michael Jackson

So far 12 people have attempted or committed suicide over Michael Jackson's death. I find it hard to believe that those suicides are actually due to MJ. I mean, someone's life has to be pretty miserable and their mental health can't be too stellar for them to use MJ's death as a reason to kill themselves. So add some of the crazy "I want to be with him" through death sorts of thoughts to already miserable lives.

There was also supposedly a crisis team at UCLA to help counsel mourning fans. If my internship had started a week earlier, who knows whether that would be one of my assignments...
