Have You Ever been able to make someone love or even like Michael Jackson or convince them of his innocence ?

I knew someone once upon a time. She was my friend before but now thats history and I don't care. She was a little bit the same way. Like one minute she says" Michael Jackson is such an Oreo. I hate Oreos" and the next minute she ask me" hey, can you draw Michael Jackson for me?" I got so puzzled when she asked me that. I was like" and why do you want me to draw him for you? I thought you couldn't stand him" I was pretty random. And another time, in dance class she kept going on and on making fun of him and what not. Every nonsense she says about him always gets me in the groin. Then she saw in my bookbag that I had a Michael Jackson book that I got one Christmas and she was looking through it a bit and asked me" hey, can I borrow this book?" I got the same confused expression. I said" sure but why? Don't you hate him?" Still confusing. She even asked me if she could keep one of my MJ pins. And when we first met, I told her how me and ola are kinda related and she yelled" you are so lucky!" Anywho, it's just kinda like one of those love hate things. One minute they hate him and the next they adore him. It's just weird. But kinda funny. That's how some haters are. Unless they're secretly a big fan of mike and they're just trying to hide it by pretending to hate him. Mike is magic like that. He can even turn on haters and they know it. They just don't want to admit it.

I have a cousin like that. Most of my family loves them some Michael Jackson except her. And she always gets on to me everytime she catches me listening to him and she talks about it all the time and it gets on my last good nerve, so just to annoy her I started playing his music out loud. She usually told me to stop or threw something at me. But a couple of days later (and she will never admit this if you ask her) I found her singing Hold My Hand and Man in The Mirror. When I asked her what she was doing, she claimed she was "practicing for choir" (she's in art class). I knew I got her even though she won't admit it xD hehe so there's that. But I've been picked on by some people who I used to call "friends" because I liked MJ and that made me an easy target, they just don't know their hate for MJ isn't strong enough to compare to my love for the man, so I would fight back with them on a lot of stuff, and I have convinced and turned some people from haters to people who have grown to at least respect the man. For me it's like how do you look at this face and hate it? :c (this a long ass answer sorry! o:))

I wish, i try to make my sister believe he's innocent and all the bad things that the tabloids say aren't true but she doesn't believe me and she always makes fun of him and calling him gay and stuff and it really makes me angry, i mean how can anyone hate Michael.....I really wish i could understand my sister but i don't.......

Well, my family finally acepts Michael. But my Best Friend will never do, she´s a Belieber:PPP
But don´t worry, my bro is also joking about MJ all the time. Maybe yours just does, to annoy you :)

They know how I feel (my family) and I guess they started to respect my feelings, my taste.
I think I finally made my sister respect Michael! It's a huge step.. she's not a fan, I can't say she loves Michael. But she has respect and.. I think it's a positive thing. She says she likes some songs of him like Man in the mirror, Heal the world, Earth Song, One day in your life.. (I play all the time his music and if she's there she tells me if she liked a song or not).
You know, if people have their minds open.. it's easier to make them understand the truth, if they keep their minds closed.. and keep believing the trash in the tabloids.. it's their own business. I try to ignore them or to change the subject, 'cause it hurts a lot to hear bad words regarding this angel.

I don't really have to cause most of my friends and family love Michael Jackson but if I come do come across a person or friend if they hate him I tell them leave me alone and don't ever talk to me again cause you don't know what the fuck your talking about, I have been like that since I was little which is why my all my friends like him cause if they didn't they would not be my friend in the first place.

yes I did. the true fans know the real story. he was a great singer and dancer. my sister and I loved him and his brothers. yes I convinced a lot of people he was innocence. nobody had 2 think twice about the they said about him.
