Randy Jackson is not pleased about how the aftermath of Paris Jackson’s attemped suicide was handled. He doesn’t get why she was taken to a psychiatric hospital, and he doesn’t understand why she’s still receiving treatment when she seems fine to him. Like any good Jackson Family member, he obviously decided these frustrations needed to be vented publically; so, that’s what he spent yesterday doing. Not surprisingly, his words have caused a bit of a stir.

You can take a look at the stream of angry comments he made on his Twitter account below…

If you want to know why members of the Jackson Family have been at each other’s throats for the past five decades, this news story is a pretty great microcosm for all of the issues. Clearly, Randy is out of the loop concerning what exactly is going on. According to TMZ, she’s not even in a psych ward right now. She’s simply getting the best treatment money can buy, which is what a girl who tried to kill herself needs. Instead of keeping his mouth shut or voicing his concerns through the proper channels, however, he decided to get loud on Twitter, which only creates more of the ugly headlines they’ve grown so accustomed to over the years.

With any other family, it would be a good assumption no one would fire back publically, but with this one, it’s really a shock no one has done it yet. We’ll keep you updated.

Until then, Pop Blend’s sincerest well-wishes go out to the person who actually deserves them, Paris. Hopefully, everyone around her will decide to shut their mouths for awhile and let her get better in peace.
