I LOVE DAVE MATTHEWS =) I'LL BE THERE TOO

You're right. whoever wrote the article covered their ass by only INFERING that he was doing drugs. but you understand what i'm saying.. if and when we find out the truth, i'm sure it won't make the front page!

Yes, i agree that it is "news" .. but .. they way they reported it was not respectful to the deased and or his family. Whoever wrote the article sensationalized Michael's death by saying that it happened at SF and infered for more than HALF the article that SF is notorious for drugs. Did they say Michael was a good person, michael was involved in this activity, michael enjoyed doing this with his family or that with his gf.. ? No. They said, that he collapsed on the dance floor and mentioned the 80 some-odd arrests made at SF for drgs. I don't care if he DID 100 Hits of XTC .. there was NO need for the numerous inferences to DRUGS ... this is someone's SON. and he should be treated with some respect. and like i said.. when the truth comes out .. when the medical examiner says in fact that he DID have a bad heart, is CP or the Daily News or the Post going to print a CORRECTION as big and grand as they did the intitial story ?? IT's still NEWS? isn't it?! but it wont' sell as much as scandal does! They put it on the front page.. are they goign to now put a correction on the front page? i think not. But i'd love to be proved wrong.........

CP Printed this article on their front page, whether it was their own article or not.. Bottom line is that this kid died. The article was not about michael's life, the article focused on the assumption that everyone in SF does drugs and that there were several arrests made previous at SF. Checking the facts? How about I heard from his Family , and that is all i need to hear. Have some compassion, this is someone's son! Maybe, if you were at the wake last night, and saw his friends, and his family absolutely devasted, you wouldn't be so insensitive!

you're right.. they probably did copy it i'm sorry i'm just upset at the insensitivity of some people///

last time i spoke to him he wasn't okay ..

are u kidding me ? have some compassion

MAYBE if it was Your brother , or your friend, you would feel that way ........

.... The first amendment of the constitution gives us these freedom of speech.. The question obviously that begs to be asked is “ When do these rights become taken advantage of?†On the front page of clubplanet.com today, dated September 16, 2003. The story of a 21-year-old man who collapsed at a club, and subsequently dies. The article goes on to say how the Victims family stated to police that the 21 year old man was taking medication for a blood disorder and an enlarged heart. The tragedy that this family must endure apparently is not subject to the loss of their family member. Apparently, it is also subject to the implications, and opinions of, what is more than likely, a high school graduate writing this article., trying to scandalize and also trivialize his death . The article goes on to discuss the drug-related problems that SF has had in the past. How undercover police were able to buy drugs in this club I ask you this question, “What does the clubs history have to do with the death of this young man?†Does CP really think they are being responsible journalists by publishing this on their website? Isn’t the testimony of the FAMILY enough for them, or are they under the impression that they are on an episode of NYPD Blue? After what this family must endure, how dare clubplanet make inferences to drugs and implications of wrongdoing on his part? Who are they, the sole jury? I think not. When the truth is revealed, will CP do the responsible thing and print the truth on their website, just as big, and grand as the original piece? I think not! For those people that didn’t know this Victim, he is an unfortunate victim of a bad heart.. A terrible tragedy of a young man who had his whole life ahead of him . Thanks to clubplanet many will see him as he was protrayed by CP, a drug addict, and nothing more. He was something. He was something to his family, he was something to his friends. He was a son, a grandson, a brother, and a friend, and that alone, should be reason enough to not make any kind of inferences as to the cause of his death

thank you ! his brother is a good friend of mine and his whole family is needless to say.. DEVASTATED.. if they knew that Michael's death was being trivialized, they would be more torn apart than they already are!

Excuse me, everyone but this is a human life we're talking about.. I happen to be friends with the family and he did NOT overdose. And it is QUITE annoying to me that is is on the FRONT PAGE of CP and they try to INFER that he died of an OD just bc he was at SF.. Now, when the truth comes out, and the medical examiner says that he didn't die of an OD, Is CP going to print the CORRECTION on the FRONT PAGE? i think not.! it's a disgrace Rest in Peace Michael and God Bless his Family

: yeah baby .. Glenn is a good DJ too. you know i'll be there with the girlzzzzzzzzzzz

I was talking to Velez but it's cool. I've never been to Colliseum before either and I also have heard it's was a gay club but who cares, ya know ? I just want to hear good music and dance, i'm not bothered by gay guys, i like them .. they always compliment my outfits hahahaha :laugh: :laugh:
