I dunno if you remember 5-6 years ago when the first few us soldiers died it was all over the news...it still is but not people are used to it and they get
numb to the feeling that Americans / other country soldiers are dying...also the media is a business and they cannot keep reporting the same thig everyday and expect people to come back everyday...yeahs soldier dies...ok, heard it few thousand times in my life now...mj only dies once...
I do have more respect for us soldiers than mj but both comparisons are way extreme...we are at war it's known people will die...but mj should not smother the news 3 weeks after he's dead...
