Pic 14 is local to me!! Near Vancouver, Canada. MJ was named a honorary member of the New West Police Department and was given a badge and certificate to keep that was honoured for the rest of his life.

I am so sorry for questioning his character after the lies that the puppeteers spun. I grew up looking up to him as an icon and knew something wasn’t right when all the twisted truth about him came out.

I will forever stand by the fact that this amazing human had the power to bring world peace. We were truly blessed with his short time on earth. Rest in paradise, Michael! You are forever loved.

There’s not a person today who holds this level of respect across all nations. Truly a singular individual.

Michael supped with kings and princes, prime ministers and presidents, tribal leaders and shamans. He brought together peoples of nations and religions. His mere presence was adulated and stopped entire countries from doing business. There is forever only one Michael Jackson.

I was watching one of the world tours compilation and one scene specifically hit me. There is a dude who is considered one of the biggest superstars in Bollywood, he kissed the stage dais Michael stood on. It was crazy to watch. And crazier still that Michael stayed humble despite that level of stardom.  

Someone said it right, Michael Jackson was a celebrity to the celebrities.

One of a kind! They tried and tried to destroy him but he kept rising! Even after death, he's rising!

If you wonder why people tried to turn off Michael Jackson’s light, just think it’s “human nature”

How dare anyone ever throw dirt on his name. He had global influence and a level of power he didn’t abuse. What a legend

Those are just incredible. I can't think of a single other (super famous) private citizen who was ever flanked by that much military or police protection just for moving from one place to another. Truly, there will never be another. Astounding.

There will never be anyone like him…truly the goat! 🔥
