I do not believe that a man who took his daughter to the hospital for over 40 visits could have killed her.

Michael Jackson “Black-Face”: I am certainly no Republican but 20 years ago I dressed up as Che Guevara for Halloween. Doesn’t mean I disrespect Cubans …nor does it mean I’m a communist. This is all rather silly.

"We were chasing an abuse case"
No, you are detectives, you follow the facts, ALL THE FACTS!!!

[piomarcsuarezrn]

Set aside politics and help our fellow americans please. somehow some way some politicians still use this hurricane as chess piece for their own purpose

If that poor man is dependent on Greg Abbott, I feel sorry for him.

The HUGE issue that is now facing the towns in the area that survived is food. Ingles is the largest grocery store and their HQ and distribution center is in Asheville and it was almost destroyed. that needs to be top priority

America is a civilized nation that should not endorse capital punishment.

Lester is so much the consummate professional.

[BrittneyAMcCubbin]

Okay people the port strike has been suspended you can stop hoarding the toilet paper now 😂

For crying out loud, some people are complaining about a Republican politician ( fyi, I’m not a Republican person ) wearing a black face and dressing as Michael Jackson for Halloween, 20 YEARS AGO. While in college. His friends have said that he was a BIG Michael Jackson fan. My point is why is the news media reporting such unimportant stuff that is 20 years old. Why not report on current events and maybe at the most 2 months ago. This has happened before, sometimes I’ll click on something and after 14 seconds I realize that it’s news that happened 15 months ago. Regardless stop the crap.

Michael Jackson was a HUGE star in the 90’s. Everybody wanted to imitate him.

[luisasipple]

Seriously people? It happen 20 years ago. Focus on what is happening RIGHT NOW

Quit being stupid

WHERE IS MOM IN THAT STORY OF A DEAD CHILD.

[Naturalgreen]

That wasn’t Blackface. Blackface is accentuated by white outline. For example, take a at the photo of Ted Danson in Blackface. Completely different. Take a look at Amos & Andy. That was Blackface. What he did isn’t much different than putting on Coppertone suntan lotion. People do that all the time. It doesn’t make them racist. Truly ridiculous nonsense.

[hadlee]

FEMA needs to start issuing FEMA Trailers like they did during Katrina in Louisiana. So ppl have a place to lay their heads, with their families.

[niloferjapanwalla]

Feels so bad for people are stranded in hurricane

[Junk-Dog.Studios]

We all love Micheal Jackson he was doing it outta love not being a hater.
