I think it's pretty rough you lumping Michael Jackson in with murderers, serial killers and Presidential assassins. He was found not guilty of the charges against him and regardless of how "creepy" he may have seemed thanks to the media's depiction of him (and granted some unusual behavior on his part) the fact is that he made a huge contribution to music across the world and actually put a lot of his time and money into charity organizations to help the poor and needy.
I'm not saying he deserves a coin (certainly not this one) but calling him the scum of the earth is the only really bad taste I see here.
Now if you were talking about a Phil Spector coin being released I could understand...
