Is this ethical at all to be selling tickets to a person’s funeral?

As of July 2, 2009 tickets to Michael Jackson’s funeral have been on sale, as have pictured of him dying. We all know the paparazzi may go too far sometimes, but is this really TOO FAR? I believe so, sales of his records will go up, and hopefully people will refuse to pay for Michael’s funeral. People are curious of his death and want to find out what happened to him, but sales of pictures on this subject may be unethical, he may be the king of pop and a talented musician but was he really worth the money we put into him? His legend will live on.

Now it seems as I revise my writing, that Michael Jackson’s funeral will be gambled off for free. This seems to be a better solution to the problem, he deserves respect in his death. People will be able to see him if their tickets are drawn. Those lucky individuals will be seeing Michael at his funeral later this year. The pop star will be seeing around 110 thousand people as guests. May he be looking down upon us from heaven hoping the best for all the people he has influenced.
